This is the right way to install ubuntu not userLand

 

It has come to notice that the devs of the Linux proot-distro has decided to hold gvfs-daemons and udisks2 by default on Termux, although I don't know why this was done but what I do know is that gvfs-daemons is needed for the installation of a desktop environment in a Linux operating system, so what I'm going to do in this article is to show you how to rewrite the ubuntu installation script and install it without the gvfs-daemons error.

NOTE : you need to watch the video at the end of this article to fully understand this article and how to use it 

Prerequisites :

Termux  

procedures to install ubuntu:

after installing the Termux application on your Android phone, we launch the app and first we upgrade the app repositories, to do that type the command

• apt update && apt upgrade

as we've talked about in our previous blog tutorials, one of the best ways to install Linux distros on Termux is by using proot-distro, to install proot-distro type the command:

• apt install proot-distro

Before proceeding with the installation of Ubuntu we need to manually configure the installation script of Ubuntu and release gvfs-daemons, to do that use the commands below

• cd $PREFIX/etc/proot-distro/

Now we re-write the ubuntu installation script to do that type the command nano ubuntu.sh  and then you erase gvfs-daemons From the hold comments in the installation script. Just as shown in the image below.

Ubuntu installation script 

Write out the script by using Ctrl + o to save and Ctrl + x to exit
 now you install Ubuntu by typing the command :

• proot-distro install ubuntu

once the installation is complete we login with the command:

• proot-distro login ubuntu

after that we upgrade Ubuntu repositories with the command

• apt update

After the repositories has been updated it is important to install sudo and nano text editor for the sake of future use and for the sake of those that's going to be creating user accounts on Termux, to do that use the command

• apt install sudo nano

Now you're good to go with your desktop environment usage.
