Openhmd steam-vr plugin (depends on openHMD)
Closed due to inactivityPublic

Description

I would like to request that OpenHMD Steam-VR plugin ( https://github.com/ChristophHaag/SteamVR-OpenHMD ) be included in the software center.

Adding this package will open more games to be played on Solus and will be in keeping with the thinking that produced the steam-Linux-integration that makes steam work better on Solus than other distros.

This will benefit countless users over time as proton and other technologies allow Solus users to completely get rid of windows.

This package is open source and depends on OpenHMD ( http://www.openhmd.net/ ) being present - which I have also made a package request for. ( https://dev.getsol.us/T8735 )

Thank you.

DataDrake moved this task from Backlog to Accepted For Inclusion on the Package Requests board.

This has sat in accepted for inclusion for over 30 days. Clearly, there is a lack of demand for the inclusion of this software, nobody has stepped up to provide a completed patch, maintain it, and properly integrate it. Closing as a result. Feel free to reopen but only when someone offers a patch via our proper patch submission methods and volunteers to be maintainer.
