Remove Zebra

Open imnltsa opened this issue 2 years ago • 7 comments

Zebra doesn't really fit in the RootHide Bootstrap unless properly patched for FULL rootless repository support. Installing RootHide Patcher through Zebra gives a bunch of errors, and I think it's just too much for people (a lot have asked how to fix it). It's just better to use the patched Sileo that gives conversion warnings.

This PR may be hacky though, it was done manually, I don't know how much it will mess up the .pbxproj since it wasn't edited through Xcode (still builds regardless).

Built, installed, and tested on real hardware. Zebra is now no longer a default application. Seems to work fine with icon cache too.

Agreed, Zebra doesn’t work entirely, and many have to stick to using Sileo. All that was done was the removal of the deb and the installation process of it.

Yeah, though what I'm not sure on is if the .pbxproj file is now corrupted. Still builds and works fine though.

A good alternative to viewing rootful repositories is Postbox from https://postbox.news/

In the public release version we should add an option for users to choose whether to install Zebra/Sileo

yea btw i think this is the right decision to remove zebra, it kinda works but buggy. anyways sileo is better modified for roothide

kirb won't be happy, maybe we can add an option to let the user decide to install sileo/Zebra?

Zebra being bundled would only be a good idea if it was properly patched for both rootless and roothide, which it isn't.

This is exactly it. I think it's a little too much effort than its worth, needs to properly support both rootless repositories and roothide patching. Currently, you can't even install roothide Patcher with it.
