The Hugo image build in run 34653542922 died on a Debian mirror mid-sync: 'Err:13 libruby ... File has unexpected size (6300780 != 5440). Mirror sync in progress?', and apt closed with its own advice, 'maybe run apt-get update or try with --fix-missing?'. The index the build had fetched disagreed with the pool it then read. Acquire::Retries=3 does not cover that. It re-fetches the same URL against the same stale index and reads the same wrong size, which is why three retries produced three identical failures. install_package_candidates now runs its candidate loop through a helper and, when every candidate failed and the manager is apt-get, fetches a fresh index and runs the loop once more. The helper returns two facts rather than one because the two existing error paths distinguish them: whether the caller's command became callable, and whether anything installed at all. The retry is bounded so it cannot mask a real absence: apt-get only, once, only when nothing installed, and only behind a new index. A package that does not exist fails the second pass the same way and raises the same RuntimeError. The tests pin both directions, the exact update, install, update, install sequence for apt-get and two calls only for a manager without an index, so the retry cannot spread to pacman or dnf.

utils/install
This directory hosts the Python implementation behind make install-lint.
For the general rules that govern READMEs in code directories see documentation.md.
Purpose
The package installs the lint toolchain (actionlint, shfmt, ruff, ansible-lint, mbake, markdownlint-cli2, eslint, shellcheck, ansible-playbook, ansible-galaxy) using the right channel per tool (system package manager, pip, npm, or GitHub release). Modules at this level are channel-agnostic primitives; per-tool policy lives one level down in lint/.
Structure
| File | Role |
|---|---|
primitives.py |
Logging, sudo wrapping, PATH mutation, and stdlib-based URL download. |
pip.py |
Venv-aware pip installer with --break-system-packages and --user fallback. |
npm.py |
Global / local npm install with per-user --prefix fallback. |
github_release.py |
Latest-tag resolver and asset downloader for GitHub releases. |
system_pkg.py |
Per-manager dispatch for pacman / apt-get / dnf / yum / brew. |
lint/ |
One module per tool, each exposing ensure(). See lint README. |
The CLI entry point lives at __main__.py, invoked from lint.sh as python3 -m utils.install.lint.
The matching dispatcher wrapper.sh routes make install-lint host vs container based on INFINITO_LINT_RUNNER.
File Naming
- Module names MUST stay lowercase snake_case.
- Channel-agnostic helpers MUST live directly under
utils/install/. - Per-tool policy (one tool per file) MUST live under
lint/(see lint README). - Test files live in tests/unit/python/utils/install/ and mirror the module name with a
test_prefix.
Import Rules
primitives.pyMUST NOT import from any other module in this package.pip.py,npm.py,github_release.py, andsystem_pkg.pyMAY import fromprimitives.py.npm.pyMAY import fromsystem_pkg.pyto bootstrap npm itself; no other cross-imports between these four are allowed.- Per-tool modules under
lint/MUST NOT import each other (see lint README).
