| | |
| == Goals ==
| |
| | |
| Create a bulletproof OS showcasing the best of KDE that we can proudly recommend to users and OEMs, with a coherent "here's how you get it" story.
| |
| | |
| * "The KDE operating system"
| |
| * Quality experience
| |
| * Doesn't break, or at least easy to recover
| |
| * Keeping security in mind
| |
| * No packaging knowledge needed
| |
| * Focus on modern technologies
| |
| * Useful to our users
| |
| * Useful to our hardware partners
| |
| * Useful to our developers

| == updates ==
| |
| | |
| == systemd-sysext ==
| |
| | |
| systemd-sysext allows us to overlay developer content on top of /usr without impacting the base system.
| |
| | |
| === Setup ===
| |
| | |
| {{Input|1=<nowiki>
| |
| # create directories
| |
| mkdir -p ~/kde/usr/lib/extension-release.d/
| |
| # create an extension-release file
| |
| cp /usr/lib/os-release ~/kde/usr/lib/extension-release.d/extension-release.kde
| |
| # make the ID ignored so updates don't break the extension
| |
| sed -i s%^ID=.*%ID=_any%g ~/kde/usr/lib/extension-release.d/extension-release.kde
| |
| # owned by root so it can't be removed
| |
| sudo chown root:root ~/kde/usr/lib/extension-release.d/extension-release.kde
| |
| # enable the extension
| |
| sudo mkdir /var/lib/extensions/
| |
| sudo ln -s $HOME/kde /var/lib/extensions/kde
| |
| sudo systemd-sysext merge
| |
| sudo systemd-sysext
| |
| </nowiki>}}
| |
| | |
| === Use ===
| |
| | |
| Use DESTDIR=~/kde to install stuff and then restart systemd-sysext. Beware that when changing polkit/dbus stuff you also want to restart those services as they don't necessarily pick up changes.
| |
| | |
| {{Input|1=<nowiki>
| |
| DESTDIR=~/kde ninja install && sudo systemctl restart systemd-sysext.service
| |
| </nowiki>}}
| |
| | |
| == Ideas ==
| |
| * Automatic QA (openqa? Selenium? quicktest?)
| |
| * Human QA tracking (test case management of some sort)
| |
| * Health reporting into Sentry to identify bad releases
| |
| * Support sending non-KDE crashes to Sentry
| |
| * Better kde-builder dependency definitions
| |
| * kde-builder to build release tags
| |
| * Explore systemd-homed
| |
| * Secure Boot
| |
| * ARM/RISC-V images?
