The dev/rc/release workflows rebuilt libadwaita from source inside an
uncached Fedora container on every single run, because Ubuntu 24.04's
packaged libadwaita was too old for gtk4 0.11's v4_12 feature. That
from-source build broke repeatedly on drift (rust dep versions,
libadwaita ABI, and finally a removed meson option), producing eight
straight failed CI runs.
Arch's repos already carry current gtk4/libadwaita/gtk4-layer-shell as
prebuilt packages, and breadpad only targets BOS/Arch, so there's no
reason to build anything from source. Swap the container base to a
digest-pinned archlinux image (ci/Containerfile) with those packages
installed via pacman, and extract the shared "build the image, run
cargo inside it" logic into ci/build.sh so it isn't duplicated three
times across the workflows. Cargo's registry/git/target caches persist
in named docker volumes across runs.
Also:
- Add check.yml: clippy + test on feature/**/fix/** pushes, so lint/
build breakage surfaces before it reaches main and triggers a
dev-track release.
- Fix release.yml's tag trigger (tags-ignore) so an rc tag push no
longer also spawns a skipped release.yml run alongside rc-release.yml.
Verified locally: the container builds cleanly via pacman (no source
compilation), and `cargo build --release --locked --workspace` inside
it produces working breadpad/breadman binaries linked against
libgtk4-layer-shell.so.0 and libadwaita-1.so.0 respectively.
Replaces the dev/beta branch split with one trunk (main): dev-track
builds still publish on every push, but the beta track now publishes
from a vX.Y.Z-rc.N prerelease tag instead of a separately-maintained
beta branch. Removes the branch nobody reliably kept in sync.
bakery already fully covers what the PKGBUILD provided (binary, systemd
--user service where applicable, dependency declarations) except a LICENSE
copy, which bakery.toml's new license_file field now closes. Removes
packaging/arch/ and .forgejo/workflows/package.yml; adds the LICENSE
artifact to each release/dev-release/beta-release workflow's prepare
step. Not pacman-installed inside BOS today (BOS already consumes these
apps exclusively via build-local.sh's skel-staging), so this only removes
the option to `pacman -S` outside of BOS/bakery.
Cargo.toml can drift stale relative to the actual last release (observed
on breadbox/breadpad/breadcrumbs/breadpaper), which made the auto-bumped
dev version sort as OLDER than what's already installed — bakery's semver
check correctly refused those "updates". Deriving the base version from
git ls-remote --tags instead is self-healing regardless of Cargo.toml
drift, with a Cargo.toml fallback only for a repo with no tags yet.
The fixed /tmp/bread-ecosystem-ci path races when multiple repos' dev/beta
workflows run close together on the same self-hosted runner — one job's
rm -rf/clone can stomp another's in-progress checkout, causing the
regenerate-index step to fail intermittently. Switch to mktemp -d.
Adds dev-release.yml (publishes on every push to dev) and beta-release.yml
(publishes on a beta-v* tag), mirroring the pattern landing in
bread-ecosystem/bread. See bread-ecosystem/docs/release-channels.md for
the three-track policy.
