saleem,

If you don't want to wait on the binary, neofetch can be easily installed on your system.  :)

First, make sure you have the dependencies. Open your terminal, and enter...


--- Code: ---sudo cards install git make
--- End code ---

Next, we want to clone neofetch. The following command will clone the "latest bleeding edge version". So, issue the following command in your terminal to clone neofetch...don't use sudo.


--- Code: ---git clone https://github.com/dylanaraps/neofetch
--- End code ---

Next, we want to cd into the newly created directory...so enter this in your terminal...


--- Code: ---cd neofetch
--- End code ---

Next, enter this in your terminal...


--- Code: ---sudo make install
--- End code ---

When it's finished, run this in your terminal...


--- Code: ---neofetch
--- End code ---

...and you should have the wonderful NuTyX logo (with information) in your terminal...like this...

Hope that helped!  :)

I followed the same step to install Viewnior but I get following error

saleem [ ~ ]$ git clone https://github.com/hellosiyan/Viewnior.git

saleem [ ~ ]$ cd viewnior
bash: cd: viewnior: No such file or directory
saleem [ ~ ]$ cd Viewnior
saleem [ ~/Viewnior ]$ sudo make install
make: *** No rule to make target 'install'.  Stop.

does this mean these steps will not work for every package installation?

overlock:
The basics for compiling would be ;


--- Code: ---cd /patch/of/program/
make
sudo make install

--- End code ---
but for the whole program to be compiled the developer leaves a readme and an install inside the folder at a glance and follow the instructions, as there may be dependencies too, if you do not have them installed it will generate errors as well.

oyim:
Indeed, I just looked at the readme file on the github page, and it lists some required dependencies (modules). It also has a link to an installation guide, and the installation steps are different than for neofetch.

overlock:
hum, ok if you have any questions or problems just post here we help you.
