Introduced a new capability-detection subsystem: - Capabilities (python-runtime, make-install, nix-flake) are detected per installer/layer. - Installers run only when they add new capabilities. - Prevents duplicated work such as Python installers running when Nix already provides the runtime. 2. Removed deprecated pkgmgr.yml manifest installer: - Dependency resolution is now delegated entirely to real package managers (Nix, pip, make, distro build tools). - Simplifies layering and avoids unnecessary recursion. 3. Reworked OS-specific installers: - Arch PKGBUILD now uses 'makepkg --syncdeps --cleanbuild --install --noconfirm'. - Debian installer now builds proper .deb packages via dpkg-buildpackage + installs them. - RPM installer now builds packages using rpmbuild and installs them via rpm. 4. Switched from remote GitHub flakes to local-flake execution: - Wrapper now executes: nix run /usr/lib/package-manager#pkgmgr - Avoids lock-file write attempts and improves reliability in CI. 5. Added bash -i based integration test: - Correctly sources ~/.bashrc and evaluates alias + venv activation. - ‘pkgmgr --help’ is now printed for debugging without failing tests. 6. Updated unit tests across all installers: - Removed references to manifest installer. - Adjusted expectations for new behaviors (makepkg, dpkg-buildpackage, rpmbuild). - Added capability subsystem tests. 7. Improved flake.nix packaging logic: - The entire project source tree is copied into the runtime closure. - pkgmgr wrapper now executes runpy inside the packaged directory. Together, these changes create a predictable, layered, capability-driven installer pipeline with consistent behavior across Arch, Debian, RPM, Nix, and Python layers.

Description: Wrapper that runs Kevin's package-manager via Nix flake
|
|
This package provides the `pkgmgr` command, which runs Kevin's package
|
|
manager via a local Nix flake
|
|
nix run /usr/lib/package-manager#pkgmgr -- ...
|
|
Nix is the only runtime dependency and must be initialized on
|
|
the system to work correctly.
