Hi,

I've developed a xfce4-hopman-plugin for devuan chimaera. You can install the package in your system following
the steps below:

1) Add the gnuinos gnupg keyring:

    $ wgethttp://packages.gnuinos.org/gnuinos/pool/main/g/gnuinos-keyring/gnuinos-keyring_2022.04.29_all.deb
    $ sudo su
    # dpkg -i gnuinos-keyring_2022.04.29_all.deb


2) Add the gnuinos repo:

    # echo "debhttp://packages.gnuinos.org/merged  chimaera main" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/gnuinos.list
    # apt-get update


3) Install the package:

    # apt-get install xfce4-hopman-plugin


    The following packages will be installed:


    libpstat libubox0 libubus0 runit-helper ubus usbmount xfce4-hopman-plugin


4) Revert the changes in your apt repo:

    # dpkg --purge gnuinos-keyring_2022.04.29_all.deb
    # rm -f /etc/apt/sources.list.d/gnuinos.list
    # apt-get update


5) Add yourself to the usbmount group:

    # usermod -aG usbmount <username>


6) Reboot the system.

7)Now, right mouse click on the xfce panel will let you add the hopman
plugin. Alternatively, you can run the command:

    $ xfce4-panel --add-items=1


    where the passed parameter 1 is the PANEL NUMBER. This command will open a window showing all the
    available plugins for the panel.



You can uninstall the plugin together with all of its dependencies as follows:

# dpkg --purge libpstat libubox0 libubus0 runit-helper ubus usbmount xfce4-hopman-plugin
