Official ISO signature: good signature by F0134EE680CAC571 Omarchy <pkgs@omarchy.org> (key 40DFB630FF42BCFFB047046CF0134EE680CAC571)

## Summary

- Packages: 14 added, 152 removed, 0 with a different version.
- Files that differ: 64291 (1050 generated, 28865 ours, 34376 package).
- **Unexplained: 0.** Every difference is accounted for.
- Not compared file by file: the official ISO's installer package mirror (`/var/cache/omarchy/mirror/offline`, 1259 packages); every package in our image is checked against it by checksum instead (packages.tsv).
- Ignored everywhere: timestamps. Compared: type, permissions, owner, size, content (SHA-256), link targets.

Categories: **ours** = an OmaBoot? change (the tester, patched modules, boot menu, splash, configuration); **package** = a file of a package the live edition adds or leaves out; **generated** = written at build time from the installed packages (caches, indexes, keyrings, initramfs); **unexplained** = no rule accounts for it.

## Packages

Compared: the packages installed in each live root file system. "Official ISO" says whether the official ISO carries the same version in its installer mirror (packages.tsv checks the very file, by SHA-256).

| Package | Official live | Ours | | In the official ISO | Why |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| default-cursors | — | 3-1 | added | installer mirror, same version | dependency of mesa |
| libdecor | — | 0.2.5-1 | added | installer mirror, same version | dependency of mesa-utils |
