Non-critical packages (Desktop/Plasma group, Utilities) went through try_install which installed them one-at-a-time (45 individual pacman calls). Override operation_try_install in PMPacman to batch all plain-string packages into a single call, matching the behavior of operation_install.
Also:
- Remove antergos-plasma-theme from rootfs (profile.yaml) and both netinstall Plasma groups
- Add allowFileSystemTypeSelection: true to both antergos and minimal partition.conf
- Both main.py files (profile + minimal) get the batching fix
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
All approaches to keep OpenRC as default failed:
- --ignore: pacman ignores it during fresh install provider resolution
- --assume-installed=init-logind: ALPM doesn't check assume-installed for virtual providers
- --ask=12: infinite loop (pacman re-adds elogind-dinit after each removal)
- dummy package in custom repo: init-rc conflict hits via different path
Dinit works because pacman --noconfirm naturally picks elogind-dinit
(alphabetically before elogind-openrc), pulling dinit-rc which has no
conflict. All inits (OpenRC, Runit, S6) remain selectable in the
online installer.
Changes:
- buildiso: INITSYS='dinit', remove --assume-installed/--ask hacks
- basestrap/main.py, packages/main.py: remove same hacks
- profile.yaml: antergos-live-dinit for dinit, move openrc pkg to init-specific
- packagechooser.conf (x2): default=Dinit, Dinit first in item list
- packagechooser_dm.conf: *-dinit instead of *-openrc
- README.md, README.pl.md, docs/*: update all OpenRC-first references
- AGENTS.md: document dinit as default
--ignore doesn't reliably prevent pacman from considering elogind-dinit
during fresh provider resolution on all pacman versions. --assume-installed
creates a dummy installed package for init-logind, satisfying the
dependency from base without needing any provider at all. The explicitly
listed elogind-openrc then gets installed normally and provides
init-logind for real.
Dropped --ignore entirely in favor of --assume-installed + --ask=4
(conflict resolution safety net). --assume-installed only added for
non-dinit providers (openrc, runit, s6).
The branding's netinstall.yaml has a Base System group with 'base'
that gets added to packageOperations. The packages module then
reinstalls base without --ignore, triggering the same init-logind
resolution bug. Adding the same --ignore logic from the basestrap
module.
