Build succeeded.

You should complete your change request before we merge this.

You will also need fedora-release changes

You also probably want a default terminal app and a browser included by default.

The change is submitted for review; Neal told us to send PRs early to get feedback.

fedora-release changes are done here, just waiting for https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/fedora-release/pull-request/237. Once it is merged I'll resolve the conflicts and send a PR. The necessary anaconda configuration changes are also planned.

The terminal app is included, foot.
firefox is already in fedora-common-ostree-pkgs.yaml, but if you want us to include it explicitly, I'll do that.

Great. Change LGTM overall. We should plan some time to meet to discuss future work and CI (see https://github.com/fedora-silverblue/issue-tracker/issues/334).

Great. Missed it as I had never heard of it :).

No need to explicitly mention Firefox if it's already there. Was not sure if it came from the common one or the desktop specific ones.

Do you need some config to setup foot as the default terminal app in Sway?

I'm happy to talk this over and help. I'm usually active in #fedora-sway and #fedora-coreos. Are you thinking of enabling builds for Sway in https://gitlab.com/fedora/ostree/ci-test once this is merged?

I'll reach out to find some good time to meet.

Yes, I think we should start doing unofficial builds as soon as possible once the change is accepted by Fesco (or maybe before once you think things are ready?) to unify the CI as much as possible.

@siosm ping? I believe we've got all dependencies for this PR sorted out, so it's ready for review.

By the way, what's your plans for https://gitlab.com/fedora/ostree/ci-test? Do I need to send a pull-request with justfile changes to the gitlab fork or it'll be merged here?

Also, do you know how Kinoite and Silverblue handle scanners? I left sane-backends in the tree for now, but if we have a flatpak app for these tasks and it works, I'd like to drop that as well.

Thanks for the ping. Will take a look.

For now the plan for this repo in GitLab is to act as a playground / side CI to be able to test changes in advance, etc. until we figure out the story for the release cadence. The CI in thus repo here is very basic.

If you can make a PR with the changes that would be great but otherwise I'll just update it once it's merged here.

Can you also open an issue there with the GitLab usernames of the people working this so that I can add them as maintainers for those projects?

We currently only have partial support for scanners in Flatpak from memory but neither Silverblue nor Kinoite have scanners installed by default for now.

I directly made the change to enable Sericea in the repo on GitLab. We'll have container images soon.

I've just rebased to a container image from quay.io and can confirm it works.
Thanks a lot!
