Twitter client in Arch Linux

Diperbarui 30 Agustus 2010 oleh Dani Iswara

Some Twitter-related clients are available in Community and Arch User Repository (AUR). I need to choose a lightweight, GTK-based (GNOME), and stable one.

Open a terminal, type:

yaourt -Ss twitter

Selected results, GUI-based clients:

community/choqok 0.9.55-1
A Twitter/identi.ca/laconica client for KDE.
community/microblog-purple 0.3.0-1

aur/destroytwitter 2.1.0-1 (45)
DestroyTwitter is kinda like TweetDeck but more lightweight…
aur/frogmicroblog 0.1.4-3 (12)
twitter identi.ca client.
aur/gtktwitter-git 20090505-1 (18)

aur/posty 1.8.2-1 (4)

aur/qwit 0.10-1 (91)

aur/tweetdeck 0_34.3-1 (157)

aur/tweetr 3v4-1 (4)
Tweetr is a lightweight Twitter client with direct webcam access.
aur/twhirl 0.9.4-1 (64)
twhirl is a social software desktop client, based on the Adobe AIR platform. Connects to multiple Twitter, laconi.ca, identi.ca, Friendfeed and Seesmic accounts.
aur/twibble 0.5.1-1 (4)
Twitter client using Adobe AIR.
aur/twitux 0.69-5 (160)
A Twitter client for the Gnome desktop.
aur/yasst 20100427-5 (4)
A lightweight multiplatform twitter thingymbob, created with Qt framework.

I have four candidates which is voted often, in ordered:

  1. pino 0.2.11-1 (214 votes),
  2. twitux 0.69-5 (160),
  3. tweetdeck 0_34.3-1 (157),
  4. pidgin-twitter 0.9.1-1 (142).

So, I decided to install pino, twitux, and tweetdeck:

yaourt -S pino twitux tweetdeck

Pino which is based on Twitter’s API is the most lightweight, I think. Tweetdeck is more rich in features.

Try the 'microblog' keyword also:

yaourt -Ss microblog
extra/kdeplasma-addons-applets-microblog 4.4.5-1 (kde kdeplasma-addons)
Update and view your microblog status.
aur/gwibber2.0 484-1 (67)
an open source microblogging client for GNOME.

Gwibber2.0 looks promising.
