why did i make a second whole ISO profile nobody asked for. a
standalone Xfce "lightweight" edition i never tested, never updated,
and that ONLY depends on orphaned packages i forgot existed
(calamares-branding-antergos-next-minimal, antergos-xfce-theme —
both still buildable, now completely dead weight, because the only
thing that referenced them was this file).
the real lowest of it is: it was the "offline calamares installer."
you know what that does now? tries to unpack a squashfs that NO live
profile builds anymore. it points a loaded gun at my foot every day
and today i finally squeezed. its last commit was renaming a theme
and telling a bot to shut up about pkexec. thats where we ended up.
it was never tested. it was a ghost. so i killed it.
actual changes:
- RIP iso-profiles/antergos-minimal, all 95 files of it (good
riddance, you were a lie)
- hauled 7 orphaned live module configs (initcpio/locale/mount/
partition/umount/users/welcome) out of the wreckage into the main
calamares/modules/ where they always lived — git LIED and called
them "renames from minimal" because the copies were byte-identical.
they were never from minimal. git is a LIAR.
- users.conf: cut the libpwquality crutch so 4-digit PINs stop getting
called weak. i built a pin picker. let it. breathe.
- netinstall (both variants): +vulkan-nouveau so NVK covers Turing+
without dragging in nvidia-open
- antergos-xfce-theme + calamares-branding-antergos-next-minimal:
now truly, blessedly orphaned.
the profile is dead. long live the profile. i am NOT maintaining two
ISOs in this economy.
so github told me my repo has NO community standards apparently
CODE_OF_CONDUCT? nonexistent. ISSUE_TEMPLATES? nada.
PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE? the void stared back.
and github profiles has a little checklist like im some
kind of degenerate who doesnt know how to run a project.
well NOW i have standards. and they are ROCK SOLID STABLE.
you want systemd? fork from before-systemd-change and figure
it out yourself, i gave you a numbered tutorial right in the
CoC. the AI moderator will read it and then politely but
firmly tell you to go fork yourself (the repo, not literally,
read the CoC).
also threw in the pixie SDDM switch that i apparently never
committed to the netinstall yamls either (kill me), the batch
install main.py cleanup, and fixed the README lying about
why artix.
DEUS VULT and please file your issues in the YAML forms
provided or the AI will judge you
why the FUCK did i think making an init selector was a good idea
artix themselves dont even ship services in their online installer
they just give you a bare system and say "figure it out" and
it WORKS because people can just install their init of choice
afterwards. but nooooo i had to be clever and build a whole
netinstall-add monstrosity with openrc/runit/s6 service groups
that broke constantly because basestrap --overwrite is a lie
and init packages conflict with each other and sddm-openrc +
lightdm-openrc both Provide: init-displaymanager and pacman
just goes 🖕 during install.
so anyway. dinit only now. you want something else? read
changing-init.md, i literally copied the artix wiki tutorial.
i am not maintaining four init service groups in netinstall.yaml
for the rest of my life. this is my villain origin story.
actual changes:
- ripped out offline calamares mode (was never truly offline)
- ripped out packagechooser.conf (good fucking riddance)
- added packagechooser_dm.conf so you can at least pick your DM
- added BYODE offline installer (bare system + btrfs + snapper,
no DE, you pacman -Sy plasma-meta yourself)
- added yay + snapper + btrfs-progs to rootfs
- shoved Init Services + DM groups into netinstall.yaml (dinit
only, obviously)
- updated every markdown file that mentioned another init like
they were cursed (they were)
- wrote changing-init.md so i can just paste the link next time
someone asks
- X-KDE-IsAdminApplication=true so KDE stops acting like
calamares is a virus (its not, its just desperate)
- Add COSMIC desktop subgroup to online netinstall (galaxy repo)
- Add greetd as display manager option in packagechooser_dm.conf
(required by COSMIC's cosmic-greeter)
- Replace non-transparent 900x650 logo with transparent removebg version
at 128x92 (128x128) and 256x185 (256x256) in root-overlay icon theme paths
- Update docs to reflect COSMIC availability and greetd option
antergos-release was missing from packages.yaml so the CI never
built it, causing error code 1 when the packages module tried to
install it. Now re-added to both CI config and Default netinstall
group.
antergos-release PKGBUILD exists but the package was never built
and deployed to the GitHub Pages repo. The packages module tried to
install it and pacman returned error code 1 (package not found).
Remove it until the CI builds and deploys it.
Also remove try_remove: artix-release from basestrap since it's not
needed without antergos-release in the Default group.
- Add antergos-release, antergos-next-keyring, antergos-wallpapers to
Default netinstall group (both global and online) so installed system
keeps Antergos branding instead of appearing as plain Artix
- Populate services-artix.conf (both online + offline) with service names
so SDDM, NetworkManager, dbus, etc. are enabled after install (fixes
boot-to-TTY issue)
- Create grubcfg.conf for online mode with GRUB_THEME default so
antergos-grub-theme is actually applied by grub-mkconfig
- buildiso: copy Antergos GRUB theme to ISO boot directory
- profile.yaml: add antergos-grub-theme to rootfs packages
- netinstall: move antergos-grub-theme from optional Style to mandatory Default group
- main.xml: set Antergos wallpaper as KDE system default
- set-antergos-wallpaper.sh: add QDbus fallback, wait for plasmashell
- .gitignore: ignore linux-next/ and winver/
- netinstall.yaml: add 'Desktop' group with 8 DEs as subgroups
(Plasma default-selected, Xfce, Cinnamon, MATE, LXQt, i3,
Sway, Hyprland) — users pick their DE during online install
- profile.yaml: move KDE Plasma (plasma group + apps) from
rootfs/packages to livefs/packages so it's only installed
when user selects it in netinstall; rootfs now has only
DE-neutral packages (firefox, calamares, libs, etc.)
Strip out archiso (airootfs, efiboot, syslinux, mkarchiso, prepare.sh,
Dockerfile, mirrorlist, profiledef.sh, packages.x86_64, reset.sh,
run_before_squashfs.sh) and adopt artools buildiso with full antergos
iso-profiles. Bitch, you NEED therapy.
Are you threatening me?
- 154 files changed, 2804 insertions, 7352 deletions
- buildiso wrapper + iso-profiles/antergos/ (profile.yaml, root-overlay,
live-overlay) + iso-profiles/common/common.yaml
- pacman.conf.d/iso-x86_64.conf with antergos-pkgs repo first
...Are you THREATENING me in SKECHERS?!
- Calamares offline + online module dirs, antergos-next branding
- componentName must match dir or Branding.cpp goes full T-square
- calamares before calamares-branding-antergos-next so --overwrite='*'
wins correctly. YOU'RE ON YOUR FOURTH WIFE RIGHT NOW-
- calamares-next.desktop in live-overlay (/usr/share + /etc/skel/Desktop)
- netinstall.yaml bundled. No remote deps. Kill that bitch (Cnchi).
What fuckin' college would care if you drew some bullshit picture
about your feelings?
- CI: artixlinux/artixlinux:base container, install artools, buildiso -p
antergos, IA upload with collection=open_source_software. Class is in
session. Maybe I should grow 40 feet! Then you'd REALLY like me!
- IA: mediatype=software keeps us out of Community Texts jail. The
question is; what's this stick gonna do?
It's honestly super humbling, when the trashiest repo you know;
probably coked out of its mind... says the most thoughtful thing
you've done in years.
- README.md rewritten with Artix/OpenRC/KDE badges, build instructions,
migration notes. Nice SpongeBob impression. ...Nice SpongeBob impression.
- AGENTS.md updated (identity ritual, gotchas, commands, repo layout)
- Restore LICENSE, NOTICES, APOLOGY.txt, CHANGELOG.md from git history.
Some files you just don't let die. No matter what, you NEVER use that
N-word! (...should've said nothing.)
- .gitignore: work/ iso/ out/. Go work at Starbucks with your little apron.
So laugh all you want. Forget about me all you want. But at least
I'll be gorgeous forever. Mother, I'm in the SquashFS now.
