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.
