Package the Linux desktop head as an RPM, and publish a nightly one
The third desktop platform shipped as nothing: a checkout somebody built.
VelopackUpdateChannel already named the two platforms it serves rather than
negating the one it does not, so that a Linux package would be an addition
there rather than something that had silently half-happened. This is it, and
it is deliberately not a Velopack channel.
There is no updater in the package at all. On this platform dnf is already an
updater the user trusts, audits and controls, and a second one answering to
this project instead is the capability ADR 0013 rule 4 spends a page keeping
unsettable. The cost is real and is written down rather than glossed: nothing
tells a Linux user that a newer build exists, because there is no repository
to tell them.
Rule 3 is untouched. The build job packages the release-shaped RPM on every
main build and every tag and uploads nothing, exactly as it does for Windows
and macOS; the desktop job packages the nightly-shaped one and puts it on the
rolling nightly-desktop release beside the Windows feed. Two RPMs with
different names owning different paths cannot replace one another, so rule 9's
separations come almost free here — the profile split still belongs to the
build, through DodoChannel.
vpk verifies that what it packs actually calls VelopackApp.Build().Run(), and
nothing here does that for us, so scripts/ci-linux-rpm.sh makes its own
assertions: it asks the finished package what it requires, what it provides,
what it holds and what modes those carry. Two of those checks exist because
the first realistic payload tripped them.
- .NET's libmscordbi.so links libmscordaccore.so. With bundled provides
excluded — which they must be, or this package would advertise libcoreclr
to the whole system — that produced a dependency no host on earth can
satisfy. The requires exclusion is computed from the payload rather than
listed, because a list of Microsoft's internal file names goes stale in
the direction that yields an uninstallable package.
- cp -a inherits the publish directory's modes, and off the wrong filesystem
that meant a world-writable /opt/DodoSSH: any local account able to
replace the SSH client every other account runs. For an application
holding a team's credentials in plaintext that is the trust model walked
around rather than attacked. Every mode is now set absolutely.
Verified as far as a runner can: both packages install side by side on Fedora
44, resolve webkit2gtk4.1 2.52.5 — the backend MainWindow records as measured
— keep separate launchers, icons and profiles, and dnf remove takes one tree
and leaves the other. 0.0.1~alpha.0.143 sorts below both 0.0.1 and the next
height. What no runner can answer is Phase 19, which is new and unwalked.
RHEL 9 is deliberately not claimed. It ships WebKitGTK's 4.0 line under
libwebkit2gtk-4.0.so.37, and an or-branch for it was written and then removed:
nobody has run the head there, and dnf refusing with "nothing provides
libwebkit2gtk-4.1.so.0" is a better answer than an install that draws a blank
terminal. Same sentence, and the same reason, as the missing Intel Mac.
x86_64 only, for that reason and not a different one.

Give the desktop a macOS head, signed from the first release
The same application, the same Velopack and the same two-phase person-run release as Windows, with four things forced to differ. Signing is a precondition rather than an improvement: Gatekeeper refuses an un-notarized download outright instead of warning about it, so there was never the "unsigned for now" that ADR 0013 decision 8 argues for on Windows, and release-macos.sh refuses to start without the identities. The packaging split is narrower than it first looked, and the old claim at the foot of ci.yml is why it was worth checking rather than assuming. vpk cross-compiles when told to: 'vpk [osx] bundle' builds a real .app on any platform, and CI now publishes osx-arm64 and bundles it on every main and tag build, which is what catches a restore graph with no macOS native asset. There is no '[osx] pack' off a Mac, and that part is correct — pack drives codesign, notarytool and stapler, which exist nowhere else. The dylib signing loop in the script looks redundant beside vpk's own pass and is not. vpk signs with 'codesign --deep', which is the shape Apple documents as wrong for nested code, and platform-flags has recorded a notarization rejection that names no file since before any of this existed. Signing each native binary inside-out first leaves that pass nothing to get wrong. MacDeviceKeyStore reaches ADR 0007's conclusion through different hardware: a P-256 key in the Secure Enclave under an access control requiring user presence, so the platform enforces the gate rather than this process — which is the whole point of that ADR's amendment. The enclave holds no other kind of key, hence ECIES where Windows uses RSA-OAEP, and the shape that falls out is better than the Windows one: sealing needs only the public half and is silent, so only unlock prompts. IsSupported probes rather than infers, because three ordinary Macs answer no — an Intel machine without a T2, one with no login password, and every unsigned development build, since enclave keys need a signing identity. Two decisions worth stating because they are reversible. arm64 only: a second channel is small work and nobody here has an Intel Mac to walk Phase 18 on, and an x64 package would be the only artefact in this repository reaching users unverified. And the pack id stays DodoSSH.Desktop even though vpk names the bundle after it, so /Applications holds DodoSSH.Desktop.app: decision 2's reasoning binds harder here, because a pack id of DodoSSH would put Velopack's install root on top of ClientPaths.DataDirectory and let an uninstall take the user's un-synced outbox with it. CFBundleDisplayName puts the product name back in front of a person. Measured rather than assumed, since none of it is obvious: the publish and the bundle were both run, LSMinimumSystemVersion is 12.0 because that is the minos in the apphost's own LC_BUILD_VERSION, and vpk copies a custom Info.plist verbatim with no substitution at all — which is why the plist is a template the script renders and not a committed file. What is not done is the half that needs the hardware. There is no macOS runner, so nothing past "it bundles" has ever run. Phase 18 is the whole of the verification, and the two checks most likely to fail are the terminal against WKWebView and the enclave interop, neither of which has executed once. |

Let the launcher icon catch up with the mark v2 already drew everywhere else
TitleBar and PhoneShell have drawn >_ knocked out of a solid accent tile since v2, and both say in a comment that the launcher icon draws the same thing so the three cannot drift. The launcher was still v1: an outlined square in the accent. The comments are true now. On Android the tile is the background layer rather than a rounded rectangle in the foreground, because the rounding a launcher applies is its mask. Drawing the tile would put a second rounded shape inside the mask, clipped at the corners on any device whose mask is not the one it was drawn for; leaving it to the mask gets a squircle on one device and a circle on another for free. Windows has no mask, so dodossh.ico still draws its own corners. The monochrome layer keeps only the glyph. A themed icon drops the background, which is where the tile now lives, and a layer filled to the edges to stand in for it would tint to a featureless square. The glyph is half the width of the safe zone, taken from the two headers rather than invented -- both set >_ a little under half the tile across. It is also markedly more legible small than the outline was: dark on accent at 16px is a mark, where a sub-pixel hairline was a smudge. |

Give the desktop head the mark the phone has carried all along
The window had no icon and the executable had no icon, so Windows drew its generic one in the taskbar, in alt-tab and in Explorer, next to an application that draws its own titlebar precisely so that nothing about it looks borrowed. The geometry is the launcher vector's, mapped so the middle 72 of its 108-unit viewport fills the canvas: that 72 is what an adaptive icon actually shows, and rendering the full 108 would draw the mark at 39% of the width. Nine sizes, because Windows asks for several and downsamples unkindly when one is missing, and a floor of one pixel on the strokes so 16px is a mark rather than a smudge. Windows takes an .ico and nothing else, so the raster the phone does not need exists here. dodossh-icon.ps1 sits beside it and draws it from those same numbers, so the two heads still have one geometry between them. |
