ArchEX (Arch Linux) with Deepin 15.11, LXQt 0.14.1, kernel 5.4.6-arch1-1, Yaourt and Calamares 3.2.17 installer – Build 191223

NEWS about ArchEX 191223
A new version of ArchEX is ready! In this new version, which I call ArchEX 2020, I have added the Deepin 15.11 (latest) Desktop environment. Deepin (made in China!) is devoted to providing a beautiful, easy to use, safe and reliable system for global users. I came to like Deepin very much when I installed it in ExTiX 19.8 . So I thought why not install Deepin also in ArchEX?

Why trust a Chinese Distribution?

I’ve finally managed to make Calamares 3.2.17-3 (The universal installer framework) work without big problems/issues. Calamares 3.2.17 is quite new. Released November 28, 2019. This version gives you more control over the installation process. Now you can use Calamares to install ArchEX in any language.
