Setup Deepin Desktop Environment In Arch Linux && Clones (CLI version)

 Tested on three clones of Arch Linux : Manjaro 24.0.3, CashyOS 0624, EneavourOS 0625 as advised in https://ostechnix.com/install-deepin-desktop-environment-arch-linux/

Make sure your clone of Arch Linux distribution is up-to-date.

$ sudo pacman -Syyu

Once the system is updated, reboot it to apply the new changes.

$ sudo reboot

Now, we need to install xorg (X Window System) that provides graphical environment.

$ sudo pacman -S xorg xorg-server

Finally, install Deepin desktop environment along with other required components using command:

$ sudo pacman -S deepin lightdm-deepin-greeter lightdm deepin-kwin

$ sudo nano /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf

Find the following line:

#greeter-session=example-gtk-gnome

And, uncomment and change it as shown below. Or simply add it underneath the above line.

greeter-session=lightdm-deepin-greeter

$ sudo systemctl start lightdm.service

$ sudo systemctl enable lightdm.service

Setup Pycharm into Deepin DE on ArchLinux 2.8.1 in VENV

 Deepin Desktop allows straightforward installation on Arch Linux.  Just don't forget to configure network interface during archinstall run. It might be easily installed alongside with Gnome 46 on the same KVM Guest. You may select any virtual disk layout available in meantime. Say allocate "home" lvm for Pycharm projects.





















































Now install the most recent version of Pycharm Community Edition via snap. Same setup is also possible via yay and AUR

$ sudo pacman -S base-devel tk git
$ cd snapd
$ makepkg -si
$ sudo systemctl enable --now snapd.socket
$ cd
sudo ln -s /var/lib/snapd/snap /snap
$ sudo snap install pycharm-community --classic

Another option is to build "yay" to access AUR packages
$ sudo pacman -S --needed base-devel git
$ git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/yay-git.git
$ cd yay-git
$ makepkg -si
Perform 3D matplot graph using python 3.12.4 as interpreter
