Packaging

This directory contains distribution packaging for Bread.

    └── breadd.service    ← systemd user service unit

Arch Linux

cd packaging/arch
makepkg -si

The PKGBUILD builds both breadd and bread from source and installs them to /usr/bin. It also installs the systemd user service unit to /usr/lib/systemd/user/.

Before publishing to the AUR, update pkgver, source, and sha256sums to point at a tagged release tarball.

systemd user service

The service unit starts breadd as a user service after the graphical session is available.

# Install and enable manually (if not using the PKGBUILD)
mkdir -p ~/.config/systemd/user
cp systemd/breadd.service ~/.config/systemd/user/
systemctl --user daemon-reload
systemctl --user enable --now breadd

# Check status
systemctl --user status breadd
journalctl --user -u breadd -f

The service sets RUST_LOG=info by default. To increase verbosity, override it in a drop-in:

# ~/.config/systemd/user/breadd.service.d/debug.conf
[Service]
Environment=RUST_LOG=debug
