# ============================================================================
# Packages installed by bootstrap.sh on a new machine.
#
#   - One package per line; anything after "#" is a description.
#   - Lines starting with "#" are skipped (left here for reference).
#   - [section] lines tell bootstrap.sh which installer to use;
#     [services] lists systemd units to enable.
#
# Not listed here (bootstrap.sh handles them itself):
#   - CPU microcode and GPU drivers: auto-detected from the hardware
#   - yay: bootstrapped from the AUR before the [aur] section
#   - svt-av1-essential-git: optional, also rebuilds ffmpeg against it
