adwaitium   build-ublue

This is a very work-in-progress Fedora image based on the Universal Blue startingpoint repo. It will eventually have some of my opinionated changes that I make to all of my GNOME installations, namely:

  • Consistent libadwaita theming between GTK4, GTK3, and Qt applications, even within flatpaks
  • A means of automatically updating and applying firefox-gnome-theme and thunderbird-gnome-theme
  • A few extensions to make GNOME feel a little more 'complete,' such as a dock, a battery duration indicator in the control center, and rounded window corners across all apps (once the extension is compatible with GNOME 45)
  • Various packages I use, such as git-credential-libsecret and gvfs-nfs
  • JetBrains Mono Nerd Font, my terminal font of choice

Installation

Warning
This is an experimental feature, try at your own discretion.

To rebase an existing atomic Fedora installation to the latest build:

  • First rebase to the unsigned image, to get the proper signing keys and policies installed:
    rpm-ostree rebase ostree-unverified-registry:ghcr.io/blue-build/template:latest
    
  • Reboot to complete the rebase:
    systemctl reboot
    
  • Then rebase to the signed image, like so:
    rpm-ostree rebase ostree-image-signed:docker://ghcr.io/blue-build/template:latest
    
  • Reboot again to complete the installation
    systemctl reboot
    

The latest tag will automatically point to the latest build. That build will still always use the Fedora version specified in recipe.yml, so you won't get accidentally updated to the next major version.

ISO

Warning
The ISO GitHub Action will be deprecated soon in favor of the new ublue-os/isogenerator. The Action will then be removed from this template repository and instructions for building ISOs will be on the website.

This template includes a simple GitHub Action to build and release an ISO of your image.

To run the action, simply edit the boot_menu.yml by changing all the references to startingpoint to your repository. This should trigger the action automatically.

The Action currently uses ublue-os/isogenerator-old and works in a similar manner to the official Universal Blue ISO. If you have any issues, you should first check the documentation page on installation. The ISO is a netinstaller and should always pull the latest version of your image.

Note that this release-iso action is not a replacement for a full-blown release automation like release-please.

Verification

These images are signed with Sigstore's cosign. You can verify the signature by downloading the cosign.pub file from this repo and running the following command:

cosign verify --key cosign.pub ghcr.io/blue-build/legacy-template
