AuraScan v0.3.0
AuraScan v0.3.0
Public package-path release focused on making AuraScan usable as a native
CachyOS/Arch desktop upgrade companion.
Highlights
- Added the optional
aurascan updatertray applet for KDE-style desktops. - Added per-user XDG autostart install/remove/status commands for the updater.
- Added desktop launcher and icon assets for package-managed installs.
- Added wizard and Doctor coverage for updater tray config, Qt bindings,
terminal detection, and autostart state. - Added package metadata for the tray applet optional dependency:
python-pyqt6. - Improved Doctor hook reporting so a release-safe packaged hook is accepted
without requiring a local/etchook override. - Kept the tray applet as a launcher only; upgrade preflight, config drift, and
package scanning remain in the existing CLI flows.
Package Path
The Arch/AUR recipe under packaging/arch/ is intended to install AuraScan as a
package-manager-owned tool:
/usr/bin/aurascan/usr/bin/aurascan-makepkg/usr/share/libalpm/hooks/aurascan.hook/usr/share/applications/aurascan-updater.desktop/usr/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/apps/aurascan-updater.svg
After package installation, run:
aurascan init
aurascan doctorSafety Notes
AuraScan remains a developer preview. Upgrade preflight, config drift handling,
package scanning, and AI review reduce blind spots but do not prove that a
package, AUR build, or upgrade is safe. The updater tray icon is optional and
does not replace Cachy-Update or Shelly.
