# Citizen Launcher 0.9.0
|
|
|
|
Citizen Launcher is the distro-neutral successor to Omarchy Citizen.
|
|
|
|
## Goal
|
|
|
|
**Install Linux → install Citizen Launcher → log into RSI → play.**
|
|
|
|
The core is one static Go binary and does not depend on Omarchy. Omarchy is an optional integration under `integrations/omarchy/`.
|
|
|
|
## Supported targets
|
|
|
|
Primary targets:
|
|
|
|
- Debian / Ubuntu / Linux Mint
|
|
- Fedora
|
|
- Arch Linux / Omarchy
|
|
- openSUSE (generic user install)
|
|
|
|
Other amd64 Linux distributions can use the generic tarball when they provide a working Vulkan driver and the runtime requirements of the selected Wine runner.
|
|
|
|
## GUI
|
|
|
|
`citizen-launcher gui` starts a localhost-only UI from files embedded in the Go binary. Chromium-family browsers open it as a dedicated app window; otherwise it opens in the default browser. No GTK/Qt/WebKit development/runtime package is required by Citizen Launcher itself.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
The managed game stack lives in XDG user directories:
|
|
|
|
- `~/.config/citizen-launcher`
|
|
- `~/.local/share/citizen-launcher`
|
|
- `~/.local/state/citizen-launcher`
|
|
- `~/.cache/citizen-launcher`
|
|
|
|
Existing `omarchy-citizen` data is migrated when possible.
|
|
|
|
## Build
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
./build.sh
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Install (any desktop distro)
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
./install.sh
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
For Omarchy plus bar integration:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
./install-omarchy.sh
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Debian package
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
./packaging/build-deb.sh
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Security boundaries
|
|
|
|
Citizen Launcher manages its Wine/DXVK/RSI stack entirely as the current user. It does not create passwordless sudo/pacman/apt rules. GPU/kernel/base-system updates remain owned by the distribution.
