## Ideas and proposals on how jobcomm can work ##
#### [[Back to the top joborun wiki page|index.md]] ####
EDIT: July 2023 - In the current phase of development jobcomm has been carrying all listed packages as binaries just like jobcore & jobextra. The idea though still remains, the intention is for you to engage in building your own packages instead of the lazy way of downloading and installing binaries. In the case of browsers, other than our beloved jobextra/librewolf it takes nearly as much time to download our binary (ie palemoon - about to be dropped because enough is enough) than to download and make the package from a 3rd party's binary (palemoon...deb). The source/PKGBUILDs may remain in the jobcomm.git but may be removed from the pacman.db list.

So the following has been altered in practice but the underlying concern remains. We have also shifted to match Arch's pkg list better and jobextra pkgs tend to match some in extra, while jobcomm to community. The ones you may otherwise find in AUR and their dependencies will most likely stay in jobcomm for the deep future and be maintained as well as resources allow.
