proot-distro VS x11-packages

I don't check the current versions of distributions every day. So if someone find that new release is available, an issue can be opened at https://github.com/termux/proot-distro/issues.

Is there any default password for priviliged user. I mean when i $ proot-distro login distro will bring shell "#". Do i need to create password using passwd? https://github.com/termux/proot-distro/discussions/309

VSCode CLI has a package built for Alpine Linux. Use proot-distro or (shameless plug) distroot (a startup script) to install Alpine Linux in Termux.

because it is termux-proot

Folks who want a more traditional linux environment and libraries then what termux comes with might find proot-distro[1] to meet their needs. Basically it allows running an actual arm linux distro in a pseudo container created by (ab)using the ptrace syscall to emulate root privileges. This has a fairly big performance impact, but it works if you want to run arbitrary arm linix binaries.

I just installed proot-distro alpine and logged in with the said command. I want to add a user in it. I read proot-distro help in the termux but it mentions about how to log in as a specific user not about how to add a user. I have also checked termux wiki which says to add user useradd -U -m username but this also gave error. so does any one know how to add a user name in it. for example "john" is the user name i want to add so how do i do that?

https://github.com/termux/proot-distro - Installing base Ubuntu proot-distro (without GUI), it is a pretty straightforward process so I just used the original documentation

It is a clickbait. The "root" permission in this video is called proot which is to install a Linux container in Termux. The programs runs in container would think they are running in a real Linux environment.

Lots of things changed in few years. Now it doesn't make sense to separate x11 packages to https://github.com/termux/x11-packages - we no longer need to deal with side collaborator access rights.

Done, thanks.

Solved. https://github.com/termux/x11-packages/pull/540

* It is not available through the official packages repository. You could, although, try building it from the source code, however you might have to patch the source code and port it for Android; if you manage to do this, it would be appreciated if you could help the project by adding VLC to Termux's GUI repository. You could also use mpv-x as an alternative, it is available in Termux's repositories.

Many desktop environments (xfce4, mate, lxqt), window managers (dwm, i3, fluxbox), gui toolkits (gtk2/3/4, qt5) and so on. The entire list: https://github.com/termux/x11-packages/tree/master/packages

PS : maybe my issue is related to the termux tigervnc package, see https://github.com/termux/x11-packages/issues/274#issuecomment-810936024 ...
