    That’s not at all what I’m talking about. I know how to add XFCE to an existing system (or at least I did know how on antiX 23), what I’m interested in is how to add init-diversity and additional inits to this respin after it’s been installed to disk (not to a live ISO, but to the installed version).

    Now that may be quite complicated, but it seems as though it should be possible.

    I think that either @anticapitalista or @ProwlerGr will have to weigh in and explain how to do that if that’s truly what you want to do.

    There are two straightforward ways still available in antiX 26 if you end up deciding to add Xfce to an existing antiX 26 system: the package installer has two choices for an Xfce desktop – Xfce4-lite with consolekit or Xfce4 with consolekit and lightdm. The other way to go, and it’s probably the way I would choose, is to manually select either an Xfce metapackage or choose the precise selection of Xfce packages and applications you want to use.

    So if you can get the details from the developers you can still go that way; otherwise there are a few alternatives, understanding that they are not the methods you prefer to try at this time.
