Two low-severity review findings on 8501a60:
- owner="$(id -u):$(id -g)" as two substitutions only propagates the
last status, so a lone id -u failure would build ':1000' and abort at
the chown with "invalid owner" under the wrong line. Run both ids in
a single arch-chroot sh -c chained with && and join with paste -sd:;
pipefail makes any failure abort at the owner= line. Verified both
paths: existing user yields 1000:1000, missing user trips the ERR
trap before owner is used.
- the ydotool symlink mkdir/ln wrote stderr to the terminal while the
failure warn pointed at $LOG, which never recorded it; redirect both
into the log, matching the bluetooth block.
The end-4 step's chowns ran on the live medium, whose /etc/passwd has
no $USERNAME (the user exists only inside /mnt), so 'chown -R
alvin:alvin' failed with "invalid user" and the ERR trap aborted the
install at line 543. Resolve uid/gid once via arch-chroot id and chown
by number; the three remaining name-based chowns (fork/fish/hypr
restores) would have hit the same wall later.
Replace those three mid-function chowns with one catch-all over the
target home after the last root-side write: sed -i on the presets
rewrites through a temp file, which leaves them root-owned with no
chown after it.
systemctl --user enable ydotool.service could never work inside the
chroot (no /run/user/UID/bus exists before boot; it only ever warned
with "Failed to connect to user scope bus", so ydotool never
autostarted). Write the symlink enable would write:
~/.config/systemd/user/default.target.wants/ydotool.service ->
/usr/lib/systemd/user/ydotool.service.
- customize_airootfs.sh stages dots-hyprland at /opt, runs ./setup
install-deps as a throwaway builder, harvests the built packages into
/opt/localrepo so pacstrap resolves them offline
- image ships its own [local-aur] (file:///opt/localrepo); CI and
localrepo/update.sh keep that copy in sync; .gitignore covers work/,
out/ and airootfs/opt/localrepo/
- alvin-install runs ./setup install --skip-alldeps on the target
- clone pctrade/end4-pC into /etc/skel/.config/quickshell, patch qsConfig
ii -> end4-pC in the staged variables.lua (guarded + idempotent), and
restore the fork after setup rsync --delete's ~/.config/quickshell
- ship user presets in skel, point fish `q` alias at end4-pC
- AGENTS.md: document the fourth package source and new gotchas
pacstrap failed at line 382 because pkglist lines from pacman -Q are
'name version' and were passed whole as pacman targets (~400 'target
not found'). Parse only the first field, pre-filter against pacman -Slq
so packages missing from the live repos (local-aur) are skipped with a
warning, and fall back to an unfiltered list if pacman -Syy fails.
Keymap screen now offers a US-layout confirm before the gum filter.
- New gum-based installer script (alvin-install) with LUKS encryption,
nmtui networking, disk selector, user/git config, and CachyOS repo setup
- Replace NetworkManager full unit file with symlink for consistency
- Add alvin-install reference to MOTD
- Add file_permissions entry in profiledef.sh
- Fix localrepo path case in pacman.conf
These files exist in the airootfs overlay but are owned by packages
in packages.x86_64, causing 'exists in filesystem' errors during
mkarchiso pacman install:
- usr/lib/os-release (filesystem)
- usr/share/pacman/keyrings/cachyos-* (cachyos-keyring)
- etc/clamav/certs/clamav.crt (clamav)
- etc/skel/.zshrc (grml-zsh-config)
