SHELLY LANDS IN PKGBUILDS, CLI INSTALLER FIXES BOOTLOADER BUGS

By RepoJournal · Filed · About CachyOS · Composed from the cited sources · methodology

CachyOS shipped shelly support across the build system while the new CLI installer tackles critical bootloader installation failures that blocked users mid-setup.

Shelly rolled into CachyOS-PKGBUILDS with a fresh PR [1] that landed overnight, expanding the package ecosystem just as Cachy-Update climbed to v4.1.3 [2] to fix a lingering issue from the prior release. Over on the installer side, vnepogodin deployed a series of bootloader fixes [3][4] targeting installation failures and recovery paths, alongside ZFS export/import synchronization [5] that tightens filesystem handling during deployment. The new CLI installer [6][7] bumped versions twice in the cycle, signaling rapid iteration on core stability. In the AUR-derived repo, sysd-manager got a path fix [8] that resolves install directory conflicts, while automated version bumps for github-copilot-cli [9], github-copilot-app-bin [10], and claude-code [11] kept developer tooling current without manual intervention. Live ISO picked up greetd support in dmcheck [12] for noctalia-greeter integration, and wiki documentation updated Cachy-Update disable procedures [13] to reflect real user questions from the forum.
