ProbeLabs65 findings · 95 requirementsA proof layer — requirements, tests and verified fixes — for two of Omarchy's subsystems: the application menu (launcher scripts, QML model, JSONC config, search and selection) and the lock screen (lock scripts, QML, PAM authentication). Scope is deliberately limited to those components of omacom/omarchy; the rest of the distribution is not covered.

Original report
What correction or addition do we need?
INnthis page - [Omarchy manual installation] Learn more at https://learn.omacom.io/2/the-omarchy-manual/96/manual-installation.
Since Omarchy requires root permissions to install correctly, the command " curl -fsSL https://omarchy.org/install | bash" that I saw on this page to install Omarchy needs to be changed to "sudo curl -fsSL https://omarchy.org/install | bash".
I discovered that Omarchy does not support Arch's actual root installation. This command must be used with sudo and sudo user.
