Echo 63b0bfce34 fix: align all non-Ubuntu packages with Debian baseline behavior 
- Arch: remove system user creation, root:root ownership, fix $startdir path in PKGBUILD
- RPM: uncomment BuildRequires, add runtime deps (openssl-libs, ca-certificates), remove system user, root:root ownership
- Alpine: remove system user creation, root:root ownership, co-locate install script with APKBUILD
- All platforms now match Debian: no system user, root:root, create dirs, copy example configs, enable service

Fix Non-Ubuntu Package Builds

Goal

All platform packages must produce identical install results as the Debian/Ubuntu package.

Debian Baseline Behavior

  • No system user creation (service runs as root)
  • Directory ownership: root:root
  • Create dirs: /etc/linux_patch_api/certs, /var/lib/linux_patch_api, /var/log/linux_patch_api
  • Permissions: 750 on config dirs, 755 on data/log dirs
  • Copy .example configs to live configs if not present
  • Enable service (systemd or rc-update)
  • Print next-steps message

Tasks

  • 1. Fix Arch linux-patch-api.install - removed system user creation, root:root ownership, matches Debian
  • 2. Fix Arch build-arch.sh - fixed $startdir path, added source=() array
  • 3. Fix RPM linux-patch-api.spec - uncommented BuildRequires, added runtime deps, removed system user, root:root ownership
  • 4. Fix Alpine linux-patch-api.apk-install - removed system user creation, root:root ownership, matches Debian
  • 5. Fix Alpine build-alpine.sh - co-located install script with APKBUILD, used install -Dm commands
  • 6. Verify all platforms produce consistent results (needs CI run)

Changes Summary

Arch Linux

  • configs/linux-patch-api.install: Removed user/group creation, changed ownership to root:root, matches Debian preinst/postinst
  • build-arch.sh: Fixed PKGBUILD package() to use $startdir (not $srcdir), added source=() array

RPM (Fedora/RHEL/CentOS)

  • linux-patch-api.spec: Uncommented BuildRequires (cargo, rust, gcc, openssl-devel, systemd-devel, pkgconfig(systemd)), added runtime Requires (openssl-libs, ca-certificates), removed system user creation from %pre, changed ownership to root:root in %pre, matches Debian behavior in %post

Alpine Linux

  • configs/linux-patch-api.apk-install: Removed addgroup/adduser, changed ownership to root:root, matches Debian preinst/postinst
  • build-alpine.sh: Restructured to co-locate install script with APKBUILD in workspace directory, used install -Dm commands in package() function, fixed $startdir references
