Add preflight package resolution step in build-offi.sh to validate all profile
packages against pacman repositories before mkarchiso execution. This prevents
'target not found' errors during ISO creation by catching missing packages early
with helpful error messages and recovery instructions.
Introduce fws-dnd package (D&D 5e manager for FWS with GTK4 interface) to the
local package build process in setup-aur.sh. Include PKGBUILD definition and
source tarball.
When package resolution fails, the build now exits with clear feedback pointing
users to run setup-aur.sh to build missing dependencies like fws-dnd.
Refactor version and variant handling to prompt for metadata on the host before entering container, enabling proper terminal display. Pass FWS_ISO_VERSION and FWS_ISO_TAG via environment variables to container.
Add build date (AAAA.MM.JJ format) to the final ISO filename: fws-<version>-<variant>-<AAAA.MM.JJ>.iso
Implement ask_iso_meta_host() function to validate and collect version (major.minor.build) and variant name inputs before containerization. Use sudo -E to preserve environment variables across privilege escalation.
Update ISO metadata prompt logic to skip if already provided, supporting both container execution and native Arch/WSL environments.
Replace automatic version reading from VERSION file with interactive prompts for version (major.minor.build) and ISO variant name (e.g., cli, gnome, kde).
Changes:
- Remove automatic VERSION file reading; now serves as default with prompt
- Add interactive prompts for version and variant name with validation
- Simplify ISO naming from FWS-v{major}-{minor}-{build}-{date}-x86_64.iso to fws-{version}-{variant}.iso
- Update hostname from 'archiso' to 'fws'
- Add custom FWS logo for fastfetch with color configuration
- Improve error messages and user feedback
This enables flexible build variants and streamlines the build process.
Add --network=host flag to podman run commands in both build.sh and build-offi.sh to fix DNS resolution issues.
The podman bridge network was unable to route to external hosts on certain wifi networks due to firewalld/NAT misconfiguration after network changes, resulting in "core.db: Resolving timed out" errors. By sharing the host's network stack, the container inherits the same network connectivity including DNS resolution via 127.0.0.53/systemd-resolved that is available on the host.
Add automatic detection and relaunching of build scripts in an Arch Linux container via podman when running on non-Arch distributions (Fedora, Ubuntu, Debian, etc.).
Key changes:
- Implement host_is_arch() function to detect if running on Arch Linux by checking both pacman availability and /etc/os-release
- When non-Arch host is detected, scripts automatically pull docker.io/library/archlinux:latest and relaunch themselves in rootful podman container with --privileged
- Mount repository at same absolute path inside container so WORK_DIR and out/ directories work transparently
- Set up persistent pacman cache volume (fws-pacman-cache) between runs
- Auto-chown output files back to host user after build completes
- Update pacman config to disable landlock sandbox in containers (similar to WSL workaround)
- Run full pacman -Syu upgrade in container before installing archiso to avoid partial upgrade issues
- Add comprehensive documentation in README about Fedora/non-Arch setup
- Update .gitignore to exclude pkgbuilds/ directory
- Add environnement.md documentation file
