Kevin Veen-Birkenbach e09f561f0b Refactor run-once orchestration and bootstrap Mailu/Mastodon in a single deploy
- Replace legacy utils/run_once.yml with the new helpers utils/once_flag.yml and utils/once_finalize.yml
- Introduce utils/compose_up.yml to ensure docker-compose stacks are up and to flush handlers safely without coupling to run-once flags
- Migrate all affected roles (desk-*, dev-*, sys-ctl-*, sys-svc-*, web-app-*, web-svc-*, util-*) to the new run-once helpers
- Rework sys-svc-msmtp to auto-load Mailu once per deploy, check reachability, and reuse the running stack instead of requiring multiple playbook passes
- Adjust web-app-mailu to integrate cert deployment, handler flushing, and run-once handling so Mailu is fully initialized in a single deploy
- Improve Matomo, CDN, logout and CSP/health-check related roles to cooperate with the new compose_up / once_* pattern
- Simplify alarm/backup/timer/service orchestration (sys-ctl-alm-*, sys-bkp-provider, sys-timer-cln-bkps, etc.) by moving run-once logic into dedicated 01_core.yml files
- Update integration tests so utils/once_flag.yml and utils/once_finalize.yml are recognised as valid run-once providers, keeping the global run_once_* guarantees consistent
- Align frontend injection and service dependencies so Mastodon- and Mailu-related services can be brought up coherently within a single deployment cycle rather than several iterations

Fakeroot

Description

This Ansible role installs fakeroot on Arch Linux systems using the Pacman package manager. Fakeroot enables non-privileged users to simulate root-level file manipulations—ideal for building packages or performing file operations that normally require root permissions.

Learn more about fakeroot on Wikipedia and check out its details on the Arch Linux Package Repository.

Purpose

The purpose of this role is to automate the installation of fakeroot so that users can simulate superuser operations without requiring elevated privileges. This is particularly useful in development environments and during package building processes.

Features

  • Automated Installation: Uses Pacman to install fakeroot.
  • Idempotent Execution: Ensures that fakeroot is installed and remains up to date.
  • Simplified Setup: Minimizes manual installation steps for environments where fakeroot is required.
