qol-assist
is a quality of life assistant for rolling release Linux distributions.
During the lifetime of a rolling release Linux distribution, new problems occur that are often complex to deal with. An
example would be udev rules requiring the addition of new UNIX user groups by udev rules (setfacl
), and the
requirement to automatically migrate active users to those groups.
Traditionally, post-install packaging scripts have no knowledge of users, so qol-assist
bridges that gap by being a central location for rolling QoL operations to continue providing a solid user experience
while still being able to make deep changes to the OS.
qol-assist
is a Solus project.
