Omarchy

ProbeLabs65 findings · 95 requirements

A 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

Use sudo for /boot file checks in limine-snapper.shrevision 1 · captured 2026-10-04 11:56 UTC via poll

What's wrong?

On systems where /boot is a vfat partition mounted with fmask=0077 (the default in Omarchy's fstab), the install fails at limine-snapper.sh with "Error: Limine config not found" even though limine.conf exists and limine is installed.

The root cause: limine-snapper.sh uses [[ -f /boot/... ]] and grep to locate and read the limine config. These are bash builtins/stat calls that respect file permissions — on vfat with fmask=0077, files appear mode 000 to non-root users, so the tests always return false.

Fix: Replace all bare [[ -f /boot/... ]] and grep /boot/... calls in limine-snapper.sh with sudo test -f and sudo grep, consistent with the rest of the script which already uses sudo for all /boot writes.
Affected lines: 14-23 (config detection), 29 (cmdline read), 50 (pre-delete check), 89, 93 (post-install verification).
