- Add CI step to create /dev/stdin symlinks before ISO build
(Docker/container environments may lack these, causing mkinitcpio to fail)
- Remove stock linux kernel from packages.x86_64 (linux-cachyos is the
intended kernel; dual-kernel causes boot confusion and doubles build time)
Closes #X
Create a matching git tag + release in alvinlollo/AlvinArch-releases next to
the main repo release, seed a short README there pointing back to
AlvinArch (workflow status badges on top), and extend release pruning to
the releases repo so both stay capped at 3.
Release assets can no longer be attached directly (Gitea 500 on multi-GB
uploads). Compress each ISO with zstd, push the .zst into
alvinlollo/AlvinArch-releases (releases/<tag>/ on main) via Git LFS, verify
the LFS object server-side by OID, and create the release with a download
link plus SHA-256 checksums instead of a binary attachment.
build-iso:
- Remove -c flag (it takes a pacman.conf path, not a clean flag)
- Use absolute paths for mkarchiso with -- separator
- Copy local-aur.files* alongside local-aur.db*
tests:
- Fix word splitting: use 'while IFS= read -r' instead of
'for f in ' for shell and YAML file loops
- Fix YAML find filter to use -not -path like shell find
Use -- to separate flags from profile path, preventing mkarchiso
from misinterpreting the -w argument as the profile directory.
Also make rm -rf fail-safe with || true.
- Remove yq from packages.x86_64 (conflicts with go-yq)
- Add conflicting packages check step to tests workflow
- Rename 'Scheduled ArchISO Build' to 'Automated Arch ISO Build'
- Add --needed to all pacman install commands to suppress reinstalls
The local-aur repo in pacman.conf points to /home/alvin/alvinarch/localrepo
which only exists on the dev machine. In CI, copy the tracked .pkg.tar.zst
files to /tmp/localrepo and sed the path before building.
The AlvinArch profile lives at the repo root, not in a releng/
subdirectory. The old path caused mkarchiso to fail with:
ERROR: Profile '.../releng' does not exist!
