pacfree VS community

As to the systemd dependencies issue, I wrote a pacman wrapper that allows you to specify repositories on a per package basis using a simple rules file: ruled packages, in the form REPO/PKG, are always installed/upgraded from REPO. Not perfect, but works.

The problem with using Artix repos is that most systemd-free packages are named exactly as the systemd-version of Arch packages, and since you want to keep Arch repos on top (otherwise you will soon or later migrate to Artix), you need to find a way to install OpenRC and systemd-free packages from Artix repos, and everything else from Arch's. As a workaround I wrote a pacman wrapper (pacfree) that allows you to install packages based on rules: install this package from here, and that from there. As a side note, it can also scan your system for non-free-software based on Parabola's blacklists. You can take a look at the wrapper here.

It did take a little work to get it running on mine since it doesn't have the most common chipset configuration, but what I had to do was grab the image from https://github.com/armbian/community/ then burn it to a micro SD card using etcher. Then it required copying the proper u-boot.img and editing a file to select the correct device tree for my configuration. I don't that the lunar XFCE version of the image was the most stable version. Once it was running, I used an octoprint install script that made installing that pretty easy. I don't remember the source exactly, but it should be easy enough to find.

I checked to see if they had added the board in the past few days because it wasn't there last I looked. It's still not there. Can you be more specific? I checked their github https://github.com/armbian/community as well and there's no sign of it.
