hyprlock.conf shipped with Tokyo Night Moon hardcoded in six places, so choosing light mode left the lock screen dark. Every other surface had been taught to follow the scheme this week -- kitty, GTK, the launcher, btop, tmux, neovim -- and this was the one left, which is unfortunate, because it is the screen a user sees most often and the worst possible place to find a theming bug: you discover it while locked out of the machine and cannot fix it from there. It is now generated from a template on every scheme change, the same shape kitty, GTK, tmux and btop already use, and seeded by link-dotfiles so the first lock of a fresh install is themed rather than falling back to hyprlock's bare grey default. hyprlock is launched fresh on each lock (`pidof hyprlock || hyprlock`), so it picks the file up with no restart. The dark output is byte-identical to the file it replaces, ignoring comments -- verified by diff -- so nothing changes for anyone already in dark mode. One detail worth recording: hyprlock takes rgba(r, g, b, a) in DECIMAL, not hex, so the template carries "R, G, B" triples where every other theme file in this repository uses hex. Two values are the exception, sitting inside Pango markup where hyprlock wants ##rrggbb. Getting either wrong is not a parse error -- hyprlock ignores the value and uses its own default, silently. Which is why this has a contract. It generates both schemes into a fixture, never the live config, and checks that no placeholder survives substitution, that every colour is a well-formed decimal triple, that the Pango values are well-formed hex, that a light lock screen is actually light, and that the two schemes differ at all. Verified it catches a hardcoded colour left in the template and a light mode built from the dark palette, which is the original bug exactly.

Panama
Formerly Sunhat. A personal config for Fedora, with the intention of helping a user set up their Fedora system with one command.
git clone https://git.gbrown.org/gib/Panama.git ~/.local/share/Panama
~/.local/share/Panama/install
install runs everything in setup/scripts/ in order:
| Script | Does |
|---|---|
install-packages |
Repos (RPM Fusion, Terra, Hyprland COPR), then the four package lists in setup/packages/ |
link-dotfiles |
Symlinks config/dot/<name> → ~/.config/<name> |
change-settings |
Copies config/copy/ over /, applies gsettings, enables user services |
Existing configs are moved to config/old/ rather than overwritten.
Desktops
Panama configures two desktops that coexist. Both sessions stay available in GDM, so you can switch back and forth while you settle in.
GNOME
The original setup: Forge for tiling, Dash-to-Dock, Openbar, Vitals,
AppIndicator support. Configured through config/dot/forge/ and gsettings.
Hyprland
A from-scratch replacement built to reproduce the GNOME setup closely enough that muscle memory transfers — same keybinds, same panel contents, same dock, same Tokyo Night Moon palette.
