[member=8182]newonlinux[/member]  I think you will find Manjaro has an advantage on Ubuntu in the AUR (Arch User Repository). Simply put an ordinary user like ourselves will have downloaded the program, installed it with all it's dependencies/tweaks and then created an installation package which is submitted to the Arch devs and if good enough, added to the AUR. Hence the one-click solution.

Ubuntu only has it's main and partner repositories and doesn't allow users to submit packages like that. So if it ain't in the ubuntu repos we are stuck with doing the complicated install ourselves.

Now I understand. Manjaro is simpler to settup and install apps, but I like more litelinux.
And apps are here much faster starting and viber is more stable.
Pitty i cant here uninstall all unwanted software (remove icons from menus),
,because I like clean and little as posible system can be  Smile

[member=8182]newonlinux[/member]  You can uninstall any unwanted software, I'm sure Jerry wouldn't mind as that is the essence of linux, making the system your own......

To remove icons of uninstalled software look for the .desktop file for that particular program and move or delete if you don't intend to reinstall.

the .desktop files can be found in a hidden folder, namely .local/share/applications in your home folder or /usr/share/applications.

I suggest create a folder in your home folder such as "old-progs" and move these .desktop files there, then if you choose to reinstall you can move them back Smile
