- Split virgin tests into separate root and user GitHub Actions workflows
(test-virgin-root, test-virgin-user) and adjust Arch container flows
- Introduce scripts/installation/venv-create.sh and reuse it from
scripts/installation/main.sh with separate root/system and user/dev paths
- Add PKGMGR architecture & setup map (assets/map.png) and section in README
with link to the up-to-date master page
- Simplify README by removing outdated Docker quickstart, usage examples,
and AI footer
- Extend .gitignore to exclude src/source artifacts

- Introduce `test-nix-flake-e2e.yml` workflow to run a full Arch-based virgin
environment test with Nix flakes enabled and shared Docker caches
- Ensure pkgmgr self-installation and flake-based installer path are exercised
- Update .gitignore with additional build artifacts, Debian packaging files,
and pkgmgr output directories
This commit updates all GitHub Actions workflows and the Makefile to ensure
consistent behavior across unit, integration, end-to-end, and OS-container
tests.
Changes include:
CI Workflows:
- Rename workflows for clearer, more professional naming:
* "Test Distribution Containers" → "Test OS Containers"
* "Test package-manager (e2e)" → "Test End-To-End"
* "Test package-manager (unit)" → "Test Units"
* "Test package-manager (integration)" → "Test Code Integration"
- Remove explicit build steps from workflows; container creation is now
delegated to the Makefile via build-missing.
- Restrict test jobs to only build the Arch test container by setting:
DISTROS="arch"
Makefile:
- Add build-missing as a dependency to all test targets:
test-unit, test-integration, test-e2e, test-container
- Remove redundant build-missing call from the combined 'test' target,
since Make now ensures build-missing runs exactly once per invocation.
- Preserve existing target structure while ensuring container images are
built automatically on demand.
This makes the CI pipeline faster, more predictable, and removes duplicated
container build logic. All tests now use the same unified mechanism for
building missing images.
Changes included:
• GitHub Actions workflow: rename job from 'test-unit' to 'test-container' to match intent.
• RPM packaging: replace %{_libdir}/package-manager with a fixed /usr/lib/package-manager
to avoid lib/lib64 divergence on CentOS and ensure pkgmgr + Nix flake resolution works
consistently across distros.
• Docker entrypoint: add automatic CA-bundle detection and set NIX_SSL_CERT_FILE to fix
TLS issues on CentOS ('unable to get local issuer certificate') when Nix fetches flake
inputs.
These updates stabilize container-based tests and unify the runtime environment
for Fedora, CentOS, and other distributions.
