Additional context
Deck-ifier: Is a fork of ChimeraOS 'Gamescope Session Plus' which is a port of Valves 'Game Mode' aka 'Gamescope Session'.
Deck-ifier this fork, is specifically made to allow for porting to any distro, this should be possible with Pacstall as its targeted at Ubuntu usage cases.
Hopefully with a little tinkering, this should be able to run if Pacstall script could pull in all the dependencies and set it up on Ubuntu, this would make a lot of people happy I know this, as then they could have a Game Mode login for their PC, laptop or even a gaming handheld (especially using Rhino Linux on a handheld as I have seen people who have installed Rhino Linux on a Steamdeck, who want a rolling release with a Steam Big Picture Mode).
