Introduces the idea of the sidereal month as the Mona alongside the Monaþ (synodic month), and Moon hue (lunar phase). The Mona is a personal invention of mine and is based out of an interpretation of the Nebra Sky Disc through the lens of a norse sidereal calendar proposed by Vaster Guðmundsson. The positions come from PyMeeus, a Python port of the algorithms in Jean Meeus, Astronomical Algorithms, 2nd ed. ### Package name * moonrime --- ### License * GPL-3.0-only --- ### Last updated * 23 October 2026 - latest/edge --- ### Websites * [bitsomnia.net](https://bitsomnia.net "https://bitsomnia.net") --- ### Source code * [work.bitsomnia.net](https://work.bitsomnia.net/Bitsomnia/moonrime/ "https://work.bitsomnia.net/Bitsomnia/moonrime/") --- ##### Report a Snap Store violation * [Report this Snap](https://snapcraft.io/install/moonrime/arch#report-snap-modal) --- ## Enable snaps on Arch Linux and install moonrime Snaps are applications packaged with all their dependencies to run on all popular Linux distributions from a single build. They update automatically and roll back gracefully. Snaps are discoverable and installable from the [Snap Store](https://snapcraft.io/store), an app store with an audience of millions. ### Enable snapd On Arch Linux, snap can be installed from the [Arch User Repository (AUR).](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/snapd/) The [manual build process](https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Arch_User_Repository#Installing_packages) is the Arch-supported install method for AUR packages, and you’ll need the [prerequisites](https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Arch_User_Repository#Prerequisites) installed before you can install any AUR package. You can then install snap with the following: ``` git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/snapd.git cd snapd makepkg -si ``` Once installed, the *systemd* unit that manages the main snap communication socket needs to be enabled: ``` sudo systemctl enable --now snapd.socket ``` If [AppArmor](https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/AppArmor) is enabled in your system, enable the service which loads AppArmor profiles for snaps: ``` sudo systemctl enable --now snapd.apparmor.service ``` To enable *classic* snap support, enter the following to create a symbolic link between `/var/lib/snapd/snap` and `/snap`: ``` sudo ln -s /var/lib/snapd/snap /snap ``` Either log out and back in again, or restart your system, to ensure snap’s paths are updated correctly. ### Install moonrime To install moonrime, simply use the following command: ``` sudo snap install moonrime --edge ``` ### Other popular snaps… [See more...](https://snapcraft.io/search?categories=featured) [See more in Featured](https://snapcraft.io/search?categories=featured) ### More things to do… #### [Get the snap store](https://snapcraft.io/snap-store) Browse and find snaps from the convenience of your desktop using the snap store snap. #### [Learn more about snaps](https://snapcraft.io/docs) Interested to find out more about snaps?
