|
# New-install package review — generated from this machine on 2026-10-11
|
||||||
|
#
|
||||||
|
# HOW TO REVIEW
|
||||||
|
# - Keep a line -> it gets installed
|
||||||
|
# - Delete the line, or put a "#" at the start -> it gets skipped
|
||||||
|
# - Everything after "#" on a line is just a description for you
|
||||||
|
#
|
||||||
|
# Notes I flagged (look for "!!" below):
|
||||||
|
# - Hardware-specific packages (CPU microcode, NVIDIA driver) only make
|
||||||
|
# sense on matching hardware — the script can auto-detect these instead.
|
||||||
|
# - Some packages are leftovers from other setups (e.g. XFCE, waybar,
|
||||||
|
# orbit-wifi which you removed in commit 88484f8).

||||||
