-
First download the necessary files:
wget --no-ch https://raw.githubusercontent.com/mac-a-r0ni/crux-xfce4/master/crux-xfce4.{httpup,pub}

Move the downloaded file to the proper folder:
sudo mv crux-xfce4.{httpup,pub} /etc/ports/
-
Create the dir where the ports are contained:
sudo mkdir /usr/ports/crux-xfce4
-
Add the ports line in yours /etc/prt-get.conf to fetch the repo:
prtdir /usr/ports/crux-xfce4
-
Update the repo into your computer:

NOTES
- Enable the contrib repo because some dependencies reside there.
CONTACT
If you have any questions, doubts or problems regarding the ports, please feel free to contact me at j at lngn dot net or just open a issue.
XFCE INSTALLATION
-
To ensure you have a sane Xorg installation I decided to put all the Xorg dependencies with the first package you install from XFCE on libxfce4util
-
Install the packages in this exact order:
sudo prt-get depinst libxfce4util xfconf libxfce4ui udisks2 garcon exo xfce4-panel thunar thunar-volman xfce4-settings xfce4-session xfwm4 xfdesktop xfce4-appfinder tumbler xfce4-terminal xfce4-power-manager xfce4-notifyd xfce4-screenshooter mousepad xdg-user-dirs
-
Get a big cup of coffee and just relax...
-
To launch Xfce create a .xinitrc file in your home directory with the following content:
#!/bin/sh exec ck-launch-session startxfce4
4.1. Or you could also use dbus instead:
#!/bin/sh exec dbus-run-session startxfce4
-
If you have any problem launching XFCE and you have a an Intel graphic card, install xorg-xf86-video-intel and the mesa ports from the xorg repo.

Enjoy this beautiful Desktop Environment!
