The Common Desktop Environment Is Back

I know all dozen of you are excited to hear this but CDE now runs once more on Archlinux:

So you can read the install instructions:
https://sourceforge.net/p/cdesktopenv/w … nux_Build/

Some changes from a few years ago, the last time CDE ran on Archlinux:

Rpcbind no longer needs to be run in insecure mode, it does, however, need to running at boot.

You no longer have to set your language before compile.

The latest fix for Archlinux is in git, so get it from there.

Edit:

Don't use mksh, use ksh from AUR, otherwise dtterm may not build and/or will act strangely.
