@ReillyBrogan I will keep that in mind for future.

I think waydroid needs wayland, and still depends on ashmem and binder kernel modules. I have tried to build waydroid on my system few months ago and gave up since solus doesn't support dkms. There are discussions on same issues involving anbox which also depends on ashmem and binder, to which joshua was strictly opposed to, with good reasons.

Thanks, I had a feeling that this was another case where microsoft made some changes to specifically to hinder open source build. At least this one has a solution. Thanks for the quick fix @JoshStrobl . I will upgrade my system to check it out before my work today.

The last line in request template If there are no upstream releases but the inclusion policy is otherwise met, please provide a link to the source repository .
I am pretty sure inclusion policy is met. It is open-source, And it can act as a command line dictionary program for which there is no alternative in solus repo at this point. It is available for practically every popular distribution except for solus. And it is a stable and widely used dictionary protocol. Since protocol itself hasn't changed much, there is low coding activity, but it only means package is low maintenance. You can basically build it and forget about it until someone open a new tasks here. I am not sure what PITA means but It shouldn't be hard to maintain. All I am saying at least give it a bit more thought and discussion instead of closing it in less than 10hrs.

@kyrios123 That was old development repo. Github is currently active one. As mentioned on homepage. And last commit is a bugfix 5 month ago. Some parts of code is nearly 20 years old. It is natural for project that old to move its public repo to whatever is more suitable at that time. Maybe they moved it to github from sourceforge because of better layout, no-ads etc. A Lot of projects from google code and sourcefourge have decided to move home to github. And now some are migrating to gitlab. Even linux kernel hosts a public repo on github.

There is no versioned release on github, so I guess last criteria of the request template is more appropriate. But I have still linked the master.tar.gz because it is what is provided as only download option on the home page. I did noticed template explicitly said link to master.zip are not permitted, but only after I smashed the "create new task" button. And there is no edit button on this page.
