Three changes:
1. NEW run_once_05-install-pacstall.sh.tmpl (debian-only)
Installs pacstall via its official installer. Pacstall is an
AUR-like package manager for debian/ubuntu, with neovim at
0.12.2-1 (current as of bootstrap). The installer requires
root and prompts for 'install axel?', so we run it under
sudo with NON_INTERACTIVE=true and stdin redirected from /dev/null.
2. UPDATE run_once_20-install-user-packages.sh.tmpl
On debian, prefer pacstall over the GitHub tarball when
pacstall is available. The tarball fallback remains for the
case where pacstall install failed or isn't wanted.
3. NEW dot_config/topgrade/topgrade.toml
Topgrade's built-in pacstall step auto-detects pacstall and
runs 'pacstall -U -Up' (update repo + upgrade packages).
Built-in chezmoi step also auto-detects chezmoi. So our
topgrade config just sets pre_sudo=true for password caching
and ignore_failures for node.
Two bugs hit on rye:
1. neovim tarball URL hardcoded to nvim-linux64.tar.gz (x86_64 only).
On aarch64 boxes (rye is arm64), curl would 404 the tarball, the
unpack would create a binary that won't run, or apt's bundled
neovim might not even be installed.
2. The 'apt's neovim is too old' branch only ran if apt had
successfully installed an old neovim. If apt didn't install
neovim at all (or installed a recent enough version), the
tarball fallback never triggered. On rye, the script reached
the final 'nvim --version' verification line and crashed with
'command not found'.
Fix:
- Detect arch via uname -m, map to correct tarball name
(x86_64 -> nvim-linux64.tar.gz, aarch64 -> nvim-linux-arm64.tar.gz)
- If command -v nvim returns false at all, skip the version check
entirely and go straight to the GitHub tarball
- If apt's neovim IS recent enough (>= 0.9), keep it and skip the
tarball
- Final 'nvim --version' verification preceded by a PATH-ensure
for /usr/local/bin in case the freshly-installed tarball binary
isn't yet on PATH for this script's environment
Verified template renders cleanly on arch.
- Arch: paru -S maplemono-nf-cn (AUR package, installed via Chaotic-AUR)
- Debian: download MapleMono-NF.zip from subframe7536/Maple-font v7.9
release, extract to ~/.local/share/fonts, run fc-cache
- Idempotent: skips if fc-list already shows Maple Mono NF
- Pinned to v7.9 (20.6MB); bump MAPLE_FONT_VERSION when upgrading
Also documented in README that the default Maple Mono NF in nvim
init.lua will Just Work on every box thanks to the bootstrap.
