There Is No WoeUSB

Well there was one, but it is now moved to the new home: https://github.com/WoeUSB.

What happened

WoeUSB is moving to a new GitHub organization to fulfill new needs and expectations, refer The future of WoeUSB · Issue #209 · slacka/WoeUSB for more info.

• The self-sustaining woeusb program has been splitted from the current source to https://github.com/WoeUSB/WoeUSB, and the development will continue as usual.
• The current repository that comprises mostly the wxWidgets wrapper code for woeusb, is forked to https://github.com/WoeUSB/WoeUSB-frontend-wxgtk, in its unmaintained form.
• @WaxyMocha implemented an independent, Python port of WoeUSB which is named WoeUSB-ng, and the project is located at https://github.com/WoeUSB/WoeUSB-ng.

What should I do

I'm a user of WoeUSB

Please refer to https://github.com/WoeUSB/WoeUSB for new software releases, the wxWidgets GUI wrapper program is dropped due to its unmaintained status.

We also recommend @WaxyMocha's WoeUSB-ng, which rewritten WoeUSB using Python (including the GUI, yay!) and has a better future than the currently Bash-based WoeUSB.

I've filed an unresolved issue to WoeUSB

Unfortunately due to technical difficulties we are unable to migrate old issues to the new project, please kindly file a new issue and link it to the old counterpart.

This is also a good time to ensure the issue is still reproducible/relevant.

I've filed an unresolved pull request to WoeUSB

Please kindly file it again to the corresponding WoeUSB project, thank you!

I'm a package maintainer of WoeUSB

• Please refer to the new GitHub projects for the source code and contacts.
• It is recommended to use woeusb as the package name of the woeusb Bash core utility, and a separate package of woeusb-frontend-wxgtk for the wxWidgets wrapper. The woeusb-frontend-wxgtk package should not ship the woeusb program and relies on a dependency for the woeusb package.
• If you want to package the current source feel free to do so, after the descretion of the namespace conflict problem. The current source is available at the obsoleted branch.

Credits

We would like to thank @slacka and countless contributors for making the project alive, and thrive through these years.
