SPS Linux live images for 2026-08-31-15.
Use these instead of -14.
-14 still failed alsa-utils during setup: autoconf dropped LDFLAGS and
gcc never saw libasound in the target. Live Plasma could also hang as a
black screen with a cursor while KWin waited on KSplash.
This set:
- mkpkg wraps gcc/g++ so -isystem and -L for SPS_ROOT come before the
rest of the command, even when configure unsets LDFLAGS - alsa-lib and alsa-utils recipes install into /usr/lib64 (release 2)
- live Plasma skips KSplash and does not lock on start
- the initramfs loads virtio_gpu (and related DRM helpers) before simpledrm
- pkin prints each installed path; sget -q keeps the quieter log
Assets:
- sps-live-tty.iso - console live image with recipes and a compiler
- sps-live-tty-slim.iso - small console image; setup needs the network
- sps-live-plasma.iso - Plasma/Wayland live session (Konsole -> setup)
Checksums are in SHA256SUMS.

Flash the tty image for a source install. Slim has no gcc.
