@fasheng, @mmetak, @felixonmars I would like to say thank you again for the great effort and the excellent work you have done sofar on making deepin available on Arch and archbased systems.
I am happy to let you all know that I have now managed to put together a really nice version of Deepin based on Manjaro and produced a live environment / install media. If you would like to have a look, here it is: https://sourceforge.net/projects/manjaro-deepin/
The only bug I am facing still is the automatic theme updating when you change wallpapers, icons or xcursor-theme a few times in a row. Then you have to re-log for the changes to apply.
Apart from that everything seems to work really well and I think it shows that the newer more arch-grounded packages are quite a boost in performance. To be able to customize look&feel a bit I had to actually rebuild the majority of the packages because of the interdependencies... ;) In any case I was very keen on keeping the original design and wherever a manjaro-logo appears there is also a deepin-one (plymouth-theme, lightdm-deepin-greeter) next to it. The System Information and Copyright in the Control Center I have left untouched. So I hope that will be ok for everyone like that.
At the moment this ISO is not more than an experiment, but if the development continues like that I will be more than happy to officially anounce a full featured manjaro-deepin release.
best wishes
oberon.
