You can now install the Sileo package manager on the unc0ver jailbreak
It has been only over ii weeks since the Sileo squad launched its starting fourth dimension beta preview of its Sileo bundle manager for jailbroken iOS xi devices, as well as there’ve been a few updates since then. Up to this point, Sileo was solely officially supported on the Electra Team’s Electra jailbreak, as well as non the competing unc0ver jailbreak past times hacker Pwn20wnd; but that all changes every bit of today.
On Friday, Reddit user Samg_is_a_Ninja published a novel thread on the /r/jailbreak forum declaring the unloose of Sileo for the unc0ver jailbreak. As it would seem, unc0ver co-creator Sbingner has updated all required dependencies, making a total compatibility layer for the choice jailbreak possible.
Samg_is_a_Ninja notes inwards his post service that this is a near-mirror of the official Sileo installer from the default Electra repository inwards Cydia, as well as that it has solely been modified to display the advert “unc0ver” inwards an endeavor to avoid whatever confusion, supersede the Electra dependencies with ones from the Elucubratus repository, as well as add together the Elucubratus repository every bit a default source. His ain words below:
You tin at nowadays install Sileo on unc0ver from my repo, https://samgisaninja.github.io.
This is compatible with all versions Sileo industrial plant with, as well as comes inwards the shape of ii (well, actually three) packages:* Sillyo Installer — downloads as well as installs Sileo (beta) [unc0ver] to your device *Sileo Compatibility Layer — resolves Cydia “duplicate sources” error, provides bundle data to Sileo, fixes Sileo’s “Restart SpringBoard” push clit thus that it doesn’t depend on electra’s tweak injector, as well as fixes a Sileo “Area Denied” number with giveMeRoot.
*Sileo (beta) [unc0ver] — official Sileo, straight from the electra repo, the ONLY modifications made are: the advert is changed to order “[unc0ver]”, changes the dpkg dependencies to depend on Elucubratus APT instead of Electra APT, as well as it installs the Elucubratus repo every bit a default.
As it would seem, users ask solely add together the repository noted higher upward as well as install the Sileo installer as well as the required dependencies to install Sileo on their handset jailbroken with unc0ver. Cydia volition stay on the jailbroken device subsequently every bit a secondary bundle manager, as well as it tin soundless locomote used with Sileo to install jailbreak tweaks as well as apps every bit usual. Note: about cognition of Terminal commands is necessary to consummate the installation.
Samg_is_a_Ninja also added a brusque FAQ slice to his post, addressing about mutual questions. We’ve included that for your reading pleasance below:
Important: nigh shared sources betwixt Cydia as well as Sileo:
Sileo Compatibility Layer shares your sources betwixt Cydia as well as Sileo, however, Cydia is unable to take sources added inwards Sileo, as well as Sileo is unable to take sources added inwards Cydia. Keep this inwards heed when you’re trying to take sources.
Q: Is this officially supported past times the Electra Team?
A: Do non enquire them for back upward with Sileo on unc0ver. They direct maintain made it real clear that although they don’t oppose Sileo Compatibility Layer, they volition non locomote adding back upward for whatever other jailbreaks until it is out of beta testing. I repeat, DO NOT contact @SileoSupport on twitter or whatever Electra squad fellow member for back upward with Sileo on unc0ver.
Q: Why are 3 packages required/why doesn’t this locomote natively/why create I direct maintain to type into a Terminal to install this?
A: Sileo uses a version of APT that Cydia does non back upward (this is why Electra’s Cydia is patched to work, as well as why Saurik doesn’t back upward it), thus Sileo Compatibility Layer is a tweak to furnish back upward for Sileo without changing APT. In addition, I’ve also resolved about bugs that annoyed me when installing Sileo. The argue Sillyo Installer exists is to foreclose y'all from having to add together the Electra repo to unc0ver, where many of the other packages on the Electra repo are unsafe for unc0ver. You direct maintain to type a in conclusion ascendency because I can’t run this from a postinst script (as dpkg_locked would occur).
Q: Can I uninstall Cydia Installer or delete Cydia.app?
A: NO! Since Sileo Compatibility Layer is a substrate tweak, Sileo is unable to (re/un)install packages inwards prophylactic trend (sorry, that’s all I tin create nigh it for now), thus y'all ask to locomote out cydia installed every bit a fallback inwards illustration y'all become stuck inwards safe mode.
Q: Why am I getting a 404 fault inwards Sileo every fourth dimension I refresh my sources?
A: Most repos role a unproblematic file construction of Packages/Release directories, however, non all role the same, criterion format. Sileo does non yet direct maintain back upward for to a greater extent than complex formats. Notable repos that Sileo does non back upward are: BigBoss (it solely supports CoolStar’s repo uncluttered version of BigBoss, https://repounclutter.coolstar.org), ModMyi, ZodTTD/Macciti. JunesiPhone as well as unlimapps also campaign this error, soundless the Electra squad has assured me that’s something on their end.
Hey Electra team, delight add together back upward for these repos soon. Pretty please?
Q: If Sileo is updated, volition that update locomote available to me immediately?
A: No, I direct maintain to manually update the installer. I can’t guarantee this, but I remember I won’t always direct maintain longer than 72 hours. If you’re reading this inwards the future, as well as there’s a Sileo update available, trust me, I know nigh it, only wait, I’ll update everyone shortly enough.
The compatibility layer origin code is available on https://github.com/Samgisaninja/sillyo
The installer origin code (its a bash script?) is available on https://github.com/Samgisaninja/sillyo-installer
If y'all should direct maintain problems with the installation, Samg_is_a_Ninja warns non to achieve out to the official Sileo team, but instead to those responsible for the port. The Sileo Team volition non officially back upward whatever jailbreak likewise Electra until the bundle manager is out of its beta stages.
As of this writing, at that topographic point is a known number with a dark as well as white concealment on the starting fourth dimension launch, as well as this is obviously because of a work with extensive repository libraries. H5N1 develop is reportedly underway.
Should y'all install Sileo? That conclusion is ultimately upward to you. The unc0ver jailbreak bundles a newer iOS 11-optimized construct of Cydia that sports the official seal of approving from Saurik himself, whereas Sileo is intended to compete straight with Cydia. Another affair to consider is that Sileo is soundless inwards its beta stages, whereas Cydia is not.
Another affair to transcend away on inwards heed is that it mightiness non locomote possible to transfer paid tweak licenses from Cydia to Sileo. H5N1 conversation concerning this province of affairs sparked about disagreement as well as frustration inwards the jailbreak community Fri morning:
