For shells outside the install flow (login shells, cron jobs, dev work)
the install.sh-set OMARCHY_PATH isn't in scope. Without a system-wide
default, omarchy-* commands shipped at /usr/bin can't find runtime data
under /usr/share/omarchy/.
profile.d sets OMARCHY_PATH=/usr/share/omarchy if not already set, so
install.sh's override (to $HOME/.local/share/omarchy during script-install)
still wins. The omarchy-dev-link workflow manages a symlink at
/usr/share/omarchy that points at a local checkout when active.
Also prepends $OMARCHY_PATH/bin to PATH if the directory exists (mainly
matters for script-install mode; /usr/bin is on PATH for package mode).
Four scripts that wrote static /etc or /usr files become package-shipped
files. The other config-script audit candidates (omarchy-ai-skill,
nautilus-python, omarchy-toggles, input-group) correctly stay scripts —
they're user-level operations, not /etc writes.
New package-owned files (omarchy-installer/etc/, shipped by
omarchy-settings):
- etc/systemd/system/plocate-updatedb.service.d/ac-only.conf
- etc/udev/rules.d/99-omarchy-power-profile.rules
- etc/udev/rules.d/99-omarchy-wifi-powersave.rules
The two udev rule files are renamed for namespacing (99-power-profile
-> 99-omarchy-power-profile; 99-wifi-powersave -> 99-omarchy-wifi-powersave)
and rewritten to invoke /usr/bin/omarchy-powerprofiles-set and
/usr/bin/omarchy-wifi-powersave instead of $HOME/.local/share/omarchy/bin/...
(both binaries ship in the omarchy package at /usr/bin/).
The battery-present gate from the original scripts is dropped — the rules
trigger on power_supply udev events, which are benign on desktops without
batteries. (The runtime commands no-op on AC-only systems.)
Script changes:
- install/config/plocate-ac-only.sh: DELETED (file ships, daemon-reload
happens via pacman hook).
- install/config/unmount-fuse.sh: DELETED (file ships at
/usr/lib/systemd/system-sleep/unmount-fuse via omarchy-settings).
- install/config/powerprofilesctl-rules.sh: SHRINK to runtime ops
(enable power-profiles-daemon, udevadm reload+trigger).
- install/config/wifi-powersave-rules.sh: SHRINK to udevadm reload+trigger.
- install/config/all.sh: drop the two deleted entries.
bin/omarchy-update-system-pkgs: add --overwrite for plocate-updatedb
drop-in and unmount-fuse paths (the udev rule renames need no overwrite
since the new paths are virgin).
migrations/1779307845.sh: remove the legacy 99-power-profile.rules and
99-wifi-powersave.rules paths on existing installs, then reload udev.
This tree is the source for omarchy-settings to install into /etc
(for paths Omarchy fully owns) or stage at /usr/share/omarchy/etc-overrides
(for paths upstream packages own, which the post_install copies into place).
Package-owned drop-ins (no upstream conflict):
- etc/docker/daemon.json
- etc/systemd/system/docker.service.d/no-block-boot.conf
- etc/systemd/resolved.conf.d/20-docker-dns.conf
- etc/systemd/resolved.conf.d/10-disable-multicast.conf
- etc/systemd/system.conf.d/10-faster-shutdown.conf
- etc/systemd/system/user@.service.d/10-faster-shutdown.conf
(renamed from .../faster-shutdown.conf for consistency)
- etc/systemd/logind.conf.d/10-ignore-power-button.conf
(replaces the previous in-place sed-edit of logind.conf)
- etc/gnupg/dirmngr.conf
- etc/sysctl.d/99-omarchy-sysctl.conf (renamed from the 99-sysctl.conf
appendage; a migration cleans up the old path on existing installs)
- etc/sysctl.d/90-omarchy-file-watchers.conf
- etc/modprobe.d/omarchy-usb-autosuspend.conf
(renamed from disable-usb-autosuspend.conf)
- etc/sudoers.d/omarchy-asdcontrol
(renamed from asdcontrol; $USER -> %wheel for packaging)
- etc/sudoers.d/omarchy-tzupdate
- etc/sudoers.d/omarchy-passwd-tries
(renamed from passwd-tries for namespacing)
Etc-overrides (upstream-owned paths; staged by the PKGBUILD at
/usr/share/omarchy/etc-overrides/ and cp'd in by post_install):
- etc/security/faillock.conf (owned by pam)
- etc/nsswitch.conf (owned by filesystem)
- etc/cups/cups-browsed.conf (owned by cups-browsed)
- etc/plymouth/plymouthd.conf (owned by plymouth)
All sudoers files validate with visudo -cf.
The install scripts that previously wrote these files are updated or
removed in follow-up commits.
