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.

Update migration fails: owe and owe-lockfeed ship duplicate LockFeed filesrevision 1 · captured 2026-10-07 19:37 UTC via poll

Description

omarchy update reaches migration 1789764927 ("Enable OWE desktop video backgrounds and lock feed"), which runs omarchy-pkg-add owe owe-lockfeed. Pacman aborts the install because both packages contain the same two files:

error: failed to commit transaction (conflicting files)
/usr/lib/qt6/qml/Owe/LockFeed/libowe_lockfeed.so exists in both 'owe' and 'owe-lockfeed'
/usr/lib/qt6/qml/Owe/LockFeed/qmldir exists in both 'owe' and 'owe-lockfeed'

The migration fails on every retry while the repository publishes these package versions. Neither package is installed, so this is not a pre-existing local file conflict.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Run omarchy update on Omarchy 4.0.0.r6720.g8e02fc8-1.
  2. Allow the update to reach migration 1789764927 and proceed with installing the packages.
  3. Pacman aborts because both package archives claim the same LockFeed files; the migration fails and is retried on the next update.

Package versions / verification

  • owe 0.2.10-1 (Omarchy repository; build date Oct 7, 2026)
  • owe-lockfeed 0.2.9-1 (Omarchy repository; build date Oct 5, 2026)
  • Architecture: x86_64
  • Omarchy: 4.0.0.r6720.g8e02fc8-1

Inspected both cached package archives with bsdtar -tf; each includes:

  • usr/lib/qt6/qml/Owe/LockFeed/libowe_lockfeed.so
  • usr/lib/qt6/qml/Owe/LockFeed/qmldir

Expected behavior

The migration should install a package set without overlapping file ownership and continue to its hook/service setup.

This appears related to #13290, but is a distinct failure: these paths are reported as existing in both packages, rather than as unowned files already present on disk. The package contents and migration package list likely need to be brought into alignment.

## Description

`omarchy update` reaches migration `1789764927` ("Enable OWE desktop video backgrounds and lock feed"), which runs `omarchy-pkg-add owe owe-lockfeed`. Pacman aborts the install because both packages contain the same two files:

```
error: failed to commit transaction (conflicting files)
/usr/lib/qt6/qml/Owe/LockFeed/libowe_lockfeed.so exists in both 'owe' and 'owe-lockfeed'
/usr/lib/qt6/qml/Owe/LockFeed/qmldir exists in both 'owe' and 'owe-lockfeed'
```

The migration fails on every retry while the repository publishes these package versions. Neither package is installed, so this is not a pre-existing local file conflict.

## Steps to reproduce

1. Run `omarchy update` on Omarchy `4.0.0.r6720.g8e02fc8-1`.
2. Allow the update to reach migration `1789764927` and proceed with installing the packages.
3. Pacman aborts because both package archives claim the same LockFeed files; the migration fails and is retried on the next update.

## Package versions / verification

- `owe 0.2.10-1` (Omarchy repository; build date Oct 7, 2026)
- `owe-lockfeed 0.2.9-1` (Omarchy repository; build date Oct 5, 2026)

## Expected behavior

The migration should install a package set without overlapping file ownership and continue to its hook/service setup.

This appears related to [#13290](https://github.com/omacom/omarchy/issues/13290), but is a distinct failure: these paths are reported as existing in *both packages*, rather than as unowned files already present on disk. The package contents and migration package list likely need to be brought into alignment.
