BUG: Installer changes UID of existing /$HOME/.config/ #75

Open iconoclasthero opened 9 months ago

iconoclasthero commented 9 months ago

Rhino Linux Version: 2023.4

Platform: x86-64

Describe the bug After installing I logged into my existing Ubuntu install and everything was broken because the UID for $HOME/.config was changed by the installer.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior: Install with an existing /home partition

Expected behavior If the UID of $HOME/.config does not match that of what Rhino is going to change it to, it needs to throw an error and stop the install.

This seems like it could possibly be a problem with upstream calamares

based on the discussion at calamares, if the rhino-live user specified in iso:/casper/filesystem.squashfs:/etc/passwd was changed to UID 999, this would probably result in the first user being 1000.
