Use literal 'Squid' in msg_* labels, add missing msg_ok and spacing in
update_script. Replace install_packages_with_retry/enable_and_start_service/
safe_service_restart helpers with plain apt and systemctl commands. Merge
auth setup and config validation into a single msg block. Drop the custom
/etc/profile.d MOTD heredoc and trailing htpasswd echo.
Add Arch Linux container support and integrate pacman into install utilities. New files: ct/archlinux.sh (container build/update script), install/archlinux-install.sh (install entrypoint), and json/archlinux.json (metadata). misc/install.func: detect_arch in detect_os, add pacman bootstrap, and implement pacman handlers for pkg_upgrade, pkg_install, pkg_remove, pkg_clean and package refresh; include openssh install path for pacman and provide a cleanup_lxc override to run pkg_clean. Enables creating/updating Arch Linux LXC containers and proper package manager handling.
Seed a default admin account and harden the installer; update symlink behavior and LXC hook argument handling.
- Install: downgrade Node setup to 22, write ADMIN_EMAIL/ADMIN_PASSWORD into /opt/trek/server/.env for initial boot, chmod the file, wait for app health, then remove plaintext creds from the env and print the default admin credentials. Remove previous DB patching script and credentials file generation. Add health-check failure handling.
- ct/trek.sh: check for /opt/trek instead of ~/.trek, run npm ci without --production, and recreate server data/uploads by removing any existing dirs and creating explicit symlinks.
- Installer: mirror symlink strategy used in the container (rm then ln -s) and ensure generated ENCRYPTION_KEY note; add ADMIN_EMAIL default.
- json: set default username to admin@trek.local, update notes about seeded admin, ENCRYPTION_KEY storage, and APP_URL recommendation.
- tools/pve/lxc-prehook.sh: fix append_unique_line_in_ct to pass positional arguments into the bash -c snippet safely (avoid parent-shell expansion).
These changes ensure a reproducible default admin creation flow without leaving plaintext credentials, improve symlink handling, and fix a bug in the LXC prehook.
