[[🍌/Obstsalat]]
 
== 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?
