SPS Linux live images for 2026-09-01-4.

Use these instead of -3.

-3 died in setup while installing OpenSSL: make install ran pod2man,
which the live disc did not have. openssl 4.0.2-2 now uses no-docs and
install_sw, and puts libraries in lib64. pod2man is seeded on the disc
anyway.

This set also makes setup and SPS treat more than systemd and OpenRC as
PID 1, and writes compiler flags before the first sget:

  • sps.conf: makejobs auto, rest-of-line cflags/cxxflags, march native
  • setup writes /etc/sps/sps.conf before package builds
  • --init systemd|openrc|s6|runit|dinit|shepherd
  • stock service scripts under lib/setup/sv; pkin enables them for the
    init recorded in /etc/sps/init
  • extra: init-s6, init-runit, init-dinit, init-shepherd plus Guile for
    Shepherd

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.
