# Portable Validation Matrix

This document tracks milestone 2 and GA validation evidence for the portable
X11 bundle.

## Automated evidence

Completed on 2026-03-12:

- `PYTHONPATH=src python3 -m unittest tests.test_portable_bundle`
  - covers bundle packaging shape, fresh install, upgrade, uninstall, purge,
    unmanaged-conflict fail-fast behavior, and rollback after service-start
    failure
- `PYTHONPATH=src python3 -m unittest tests.test_aman_cli tests.test_diagnostics tests.test_portable_bundle`
  - confirms portable bundle work did not regress the CLI help or diagnostics
    surfaces used in the support flow

## Manual distro validation

These rows must be filled with real results before milestone 2 can be closed as
fully complete for GA evidence.

Store raw evidence for each distro pass in `user-readiness/<linux-timestamp>.md`
and reference that file in the `Notes` column.

| Distro family | Fresh install | First service start | Upgrade | Uninstall | Reinstall | Reboot or service restart | Missing dependency recovery | Conflict with prior package install | Reviewer | Status | Notes |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Debian/Ubuntu | Pending | Pending | Pending | Pending | Pending | Pending | Pending | Pending | Pending | Pending | |

## Required release scenarios

Every row above must cover:

- runtime dependencies installed with the documented distro command
- bundle checksum verified
- `./install.sh` succeeds
- `systemctl --user enable --now aman` succeeds through the installer
- first launch reaches the normal settings or tray workflow
- upgrade preserves `~/.config/aman/` and `~/.cache/aman/`
- uninstall removes the command shim and user service cleanly
- reinstall succeeds after uninstall
- missing dependency path gives actionable remediation
- pre-existing distro package or unmanaged shim conflict fails clearly
