I would like to provide a Desktop environment for Debian Junior
in Debian 13 (trixie). It would be very nice, if we will be able
to provide this task into the Debian Installer and provide a
Debian live system.

I'm thinking about adding a new metapackage
"junior-desktop-environment".

-----%<----- -----%<----- -----%<----- -----%<----- -----%<-----
Task: desktop-environment
Section: metapackage
Description: Debian Jr. Desktop Environment
This package is a Metapackage for Debian Jr. Desktop Environment.

Recommends: icewm, dino-im, eog, epiphany-browser, evolution

Recommends: gnome-calculator, gnome-clocks, gnome-dictionary

Recommends: goldendict, gpxviewer, grun, junior-doc, junior-tasks

Recommends: libreoffice, lightdm, mousepad, paprefs, pavucontrol

Recommends: pavumeter, pulseaudio, thunar, vlc

Recommends: xdg-utils, xserver-xephyr, xserver-xorg, xterm, zenity

Recommends: 2048-qt, atomix, biniax2, blobby, bloboats, blockout2

Recommends: brainparty, bumprace, circuslinux, frozen-bubble, gamine, gbrainy

Recommends: gcompris-qt, gnome-mahjongg, gnome-nibbles, gnome-sudoku, gtetrinet

Recommends: gtkpool, hannah, hexxagon, jumpnbump, ktuberling, kturtle, laby

Recommends: lbreakout2, littlewizard, ltris, numptyphysics, opencity, pingus

Recommends: pysiogame, ri-li, scratch, scratch, sgt-puzzles, stellarium, supertux

Recommends: supertuxkart, tuxmath, tuxpaint, tuxpuck, tuxtype
-----%<----- -----%<----- -----%<----- -----%<----- -----%<-----

This list provides icewm as Window Manager, a mix of gnome
applications ( e.g. clock, calculator), libreoffice and
evolution, chat client, browser and a subset of games.

On the wiki page there is a gif showing how the first Debian
Junior Desktop could look like:

This is just a first step to get Debian Junior visible to Debian
users. The second step will be to work on ITP #1012463 [1]. The
new package "debian-junior-desktop" can be used to replace icewm
and some utils. "debian-junior-desktop" can also be used to
provide some scripts to setup the desktop.

Control: affects -1 + debian-junior

debian-junior (1.31) has been uploaded to unstable.
There is a new meta package called junior-desktop [1]

It would be nice to add this package to the Debian Installer.
(Only junior-desktop - not the others in debian-junior)

The goal is to let the user install an Desktop environment for
the Debian Pure Blend project "Debian Jr." [2]
