#2 — Word-boundary match for all module patterns
Generator now pads SELECTED_APPS with spaces and uses *" id "* in
counters, summary, and dispatch, matching the conflict fix from #1.
plymouth-custom no longer false-triggers any plymouth check.
#3 — Guided installer now runs tui-install.sh
archbaseos-guided-install.sh was calling simple-install.sh; both
paths now use the full TUI (sentinel-managed, modules.conf-driven).
#4 — EFI/boot partition size unified at 10 GiB
arch-autoinstall.sh was 15 GiB, archbaseos-guided-install.sh was
5 GiB. Both now use 10 GiB.
#5 — Interactive retry for dotfiles clone (guided installer)
Clone moved outside the chroot heredoc so read() reaches the terminal.
Loops until success or the user skips; AF_MODE warns and continues.
#6 — PAM target unified on system-local-login
archbaseos-guided-install.sh was writing to system-auth (affects
sudo). Both installers now target system-local-login only.
#7 — Redundant second clone removed from autoinstaller
arch-autoinstall.sh had a second git clone inside the chroot as a
fallback that collided with the skel copy and printed a spurious
warning. Removed; skel-only approach matches the guided installer
(last updated). Also removed the individual .zshrc/.bashrc/.vimrc
cp block; aligned to the guided installer's cleaner skel structure.
#8 — Docs: remove stale plymouth core-module section
docs/md/modules.md still described plymouth under Core Modules.
Section removed; plymouth appears in Optional Applications (system
category) via the generated sentinel.

Two bugs in the module-conflicts system:
1. warn() was called by the generated conflict block but never defined —
any conflict would crash with 'warn: command not found'.
Added warn() to helpers: dialog msgbox in interactive mode, logged
printf in answerfile mode.
2. Conflict patterns used substring globs (*"id"*) which caused
plymouth-custom to match the plymouth check — selecting only
plymouth-custom would trigger the conflict block, call the missing
warn(), and then remove plymouth-custom from SELECTED_APPS, leaving
no boot splash running at all.
Fixed by padding SELECTED_APPS with spaces and using *" id "* word-
boundary patterns in both the condition and the removal substitution.

Both plymouth and plymouth-custom are now optional — neither is strictly
required, so removing plymouth from the core COMPONENTS checklist and
treating it identically to plymouth-custom.
- Remove plymouth from COMPONENTS checklist, counter, summary, and dispatch
- Add plymouth back to modules.conf (default=on, excludes=plymouth-custom)
- Regenerate all sentinel regions; plymouth now appears in optional apps
checklist/summary/conflicts/dispatch alongside plymouth-custom

plymouth is a core component (COMPONENTS checklist), not an optional app.
Moving plymouth.sh to apps/ left the core dispatch pointing at the deleted
path; also incorrectly added it to modules.conf, duplicating it in the
optional apps checklist.
- Fix core dispatch: $MODULES/optional-Modules/plymouth.sh → $APPS/plymouth.sh
- Remove plymouth from modules.conf (plymouth-custom remains as optional app)
- Regenerate all sentinel regions; conflict block now only has plymouth-custom

sync-modules.sh and generate-modules.sh are developer tooling, not part of
the installer runtime — same rationale as freeipa-image.sh. Update SETUP_DIR
paths in both scripts to resolve correctly from the new location.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
apps/ is for modules that install software during setup. freeipa-image is
support tooling for the ansipa controller, run manually before installation,
so it has no place in the TUI module picker.
- git mv optional-Modules/plymouth.sh → apps/plymouth.sh
- git mv apps/freeipa-image.sh → setup/tools/freeipa-image.sh
- modules.conf: add plymouth (default=on, excludes=plymouth-custom); remove freeipa-image
- generate-modules.sh: regenerate all sentinel regions (81 → 81 active modules,
freeipa-image dropped from checklist/summary/dispatch, plymouth added with on default,
conflict block gains plymouth ↔ plymouth-custom pair)

- plymouth.sh: accepts PLYMOUTH_LOGO_SRC env var; PNG used as-is, SVG
converted via rsvg-convert (librsvg only installed when needed)
- apps/plymouth-custom.sh: thin wrapper that validates the caller-supplied

- install-modules.sh: adds 'Plymouth (custom)' checklist entry; prompts
for image path via inputbox before the confirmation dialog; exports
PLYMOUTH_LOGO_SRC into the module run
- generate-answerfile.sh: adds 'plymouth' (on by default) to the

Move the splash logo into resources/bg-skull.svg so it's tracked in git

no user intervention or ~/Pictures setup required.

Steps taken:
- Added overlay/airootfs/etc/os-release with NAME="M-Archy", ID=m-archy,
ID_LIKE=arch so fastfetch and other tools show the correct distro name while
keeping pacman/AUR helpers happy via ID_LIKE.
- Added overlay/airootfs/etc/fastfetch/config.jsonc — system-wide fastfetch
config equivalent to:
--logo-type file --logo /etc/fastfetch/m-archy-SPC.txt
--logo-color-1 red --logo-color-2 red --color red
(keys + title colored red, custom file logo, no other defaults changed).
- Added overlay/airootfs/etc/fastfetch/m-archy-SPC.txt — copy of the pin.txt
ASCII logo; lands on the live ISO via the existing cp -r overlay/airootfs/
step in build.sh, no build.sh or profiledef.sh changes needed.
- Renamed resources/pin.txt → resources/m-archy-SPC.txt and updated all
references in .bashrc, .zshrc, and both kitty/bash-remoteconf files.

Adds a dialog (interactive + answerfile) letting the user choose whether
to copy the dotfiles' .zshrc / .bashrc / .vimrc into /etc/skel, or leave
system defaults in place. The choice is persisted as shell_rc in the
answerfile JSON and respected by both the TUI installer and the generator.

Problem: every module installs its config into the running user's ~/.config, but
/etc/skel was never updated afterwards. Any additional user created with
`useradd -m` later would get an empty home directory with no configs at all —
they would have to manually copy or re-run setup.
Solution: at the end of both TUI installer scripts (after every module and the
colorway step have finished), copy the fully-configured user's home into
/etc/skel so that it becomes the template for all future users.
How it works — tui-install.sh + simple-install.sh (identical block in both):
The block runs AFTER the last run_module call and AFTER apply-theme.sh, so
the snapshot is taken when the home directory is in its final state. It copies:
~/.config/ → /etc/skel/.config/ (all app configs, DE configs, etc.)
~/.themes/ → /etc/skel/.themes/ (GTK themes, including cyberqueer)
~/.zshrc → /etc/skel/.zshrc
~/.bashrc → /etc/skel/.bashrc
~/.vimrc → /etc/skel/.vimrc
Each copy is guarded ([[ -d ]] / [[ -f ]]) so missing files are silently
skipped rather than erroring. sudo is used because /etc/skel is root-owned
but the installer runs as the normal user.
arch-autoinstall.sh + archbaseos-guided-install.sh (chroot-phase changes):
The previous version tried to cherry-pick specific subdirectories from the
Dotfiles repo clone (hypr/, niri/, waybar/, etc.) using a long list of cp
commands. This was brittle — any new module that installs to ~/.config was
not automatically captured, and the list had to be manually maintained.
Replaced with a minimal block that only copies the three shell dotfiles
(.zshrc, .bashrc, .vimrc) from the repo clone into /etc/skel. This is
sufficient for the first user created during installation (useradd -m runs
immediately after, before any modules). The full ~/.config sync above then
takes over for all subsequent users after the modules have run.
arch-autoinstall.sh additionally had the skel setup moved to before the
useradd -m call (was missing entirely before) so even the first user gets
the shell dotfiles, with a fallback direct-clone path if the skel clone fails.

Policy change: graphical apps now prefer Flatpak > pacman > AUR. Non-graphical
tools keep pacman > AUR > source. This makes installed apps sandboxed, keeps
system packages clean, and gives us a single hook point (apply_flatpak_theme)
to theme every GUI app consistently.
lib/logging.sh — two new helper functions sourced by every module:
ensure_flatpak()
Checks if flatpak is installed (pacman installs it if not) and ensures the
Flathub remote is registered. Called at the top of every Flatpak script so
the module is self-contained and safe to run in any order.
apply_flatpak_theme(app_id)
Copies gtk-themes/cyberqueer/ from the Dotfiles repo into ~/.themes/, then
calls `flatpak override --user --filesystem=~/.themes:ro <id>` so the
sandbox can read it, and `flatpak override --user --env=GTK_THEME=cyberqueer
<id>` to activate it. Gracefully skips with a warning if the theme source
directory is absent.
App scripts converted (pacman/AUR → Flatpak + theme):
ardour org.ardour.Ardour
audacity org.audacityteam.Audacity
chromium org.chromium.Chromium
firefox org.mozilla.firefox
geany org.geany.Geany
gimp org.gimp.GIMP
inkscape org.inkscape.Inkscape

Special cases:
blender-povray: Blender → Flatpak (org.blender.Blender) + theme; POV-Ray
stays pacman because it has no Flatpak and is a CLI renderer, not a GUI app.
prismlauncher / stuntrally: were already Flatpak installs; added
apply_flatpak_theme so they pick up the cyberqueer theme like everything else.
vesktop: switched from AUR vesktop to Flatpak dev.vencord.Vesktop. The AUR
build requires cargo and takes several minutes; the Flatpak is pre-built.
Vencord config is now deployed to ~/.var/app/dev.vencord.Vesktop/config/
(both Vencord/ and vesktop/ sub-dirs) instead of ~/.config/, which is where
the Flatpak sandbox exposes its config directory.
k8s: kubectl stays pacman (it is a CLI tool with no GUI, no Flatpak needed);
podman-desktop switches from pacman podman-desktop to Flatpak
io.podman_desktop.PodmanDesktop + theme, because it is a full GUI app.

Two fully-featured module scripts already existed under optional-Modules/apps/
(mail-notmuch.sh and caldav-sync.sh) but were never surfaced in the installer
UI, so users had no way to select them during setup.
Changes across three files:
simple-install.sh
- count_steps(): added entries for mail-notmuch and caldav-sync so the
[N/total] progress counter stays accurate; also back-filled 13 other apps
(gimp, inkscape, krita, ardour, audacity, lmms, mixxx, cecilia, kdenlive,
openshot, shotcut, anti-malware, timeshift) that were already in the
checklist but missing from count_steps, causing the total to be wrong.
- Checklist: added both entries under the CLI Tools header, directly after
himalaya, with a human-readable description of the stack each installs.
- Run section: added the conditional run_module calls so the modules
actually execute when selected.
tui-install.sh (dialog-based TUI, same three locations as above)
- count_steps(): added mail-notmuch and caldav-sync.
- Checklist: added both entries with matching descriptions.
- Run section: added the conditional run_module calls.
generate-answerfile.sh
- Added both entries to the dialog checklist so the JSON answerfile
generator (used for unattended / ISO-embedded installs) can also select
them, keeping the answerfile schema in sync with the interactive TUIs.

- Add presence-detect.sh daemon: checks webcam every 2 min via OpenCV haar
cascade (presence_detect.py); holds systemd-inhibit --what=idle lock while a

- Add enroll-biometrics.sh: Cyberqueer dialog TUI for camera configuration/test
and howdy face auth enrollment (add/list/remove/test models)
- Rewrite caffeine.sh (hyprlua + niri): replace kill/restart of idle daemon with
systemd-inhibit --what=idle:sleep + PID file; idle daemon stays running
- Fix hypridle.conf: correct ;; → ; in after_sleep_cmd, add

When running as root (archiso chroot context), all three TUI installers
previously died immediately. Replace the hard die with a sudo passthrough
