📄 Description

Summary

Builds on #282 by keeping Ubuntu as the default and adding Fedora as a tagged alternative, rather than replacing Ubuntu entirely. Adds Fedora variants for all GOW images.

  • Adds self-contained build-fedora/ directories for every image
  • Adds variant input to the reusable CI workflow, controlling build path, tag suffix, cache keys, and artifact names
  • Adds a parallel Fedora build chain in auto-build.yml (runs alongside the unchanged Ubuntu chain)
  • Applies the is_fork CI detection fixes from #282
  • Fixes steamos-dbus-watchdog.sh duplicate -shutdown line
  • Cleans up Debian-isms (DEBIAN_FRONTEND, NEEDRESTART_SUSPEND) from Fedora Dockerfiles

Images with Fedora variants

Image Fedora approach
base Fedora 43 base with dnf
base-app Mesa/Gamescope/Sway via dnf
base-emu RPM Fusion retroarch + AppImage emulators
pulseaudio alsa-lib + pulseaudio via dnf
firefox dnf install firefox
steam RPM Fusion + custom steam.sh wrapper
retroarch RPM Fusion
kodi dnf
xfce @xfce-desktop-environment group
prismlauncher COPR repo
pegasus AppImage approach
es-de AppImage (distro-agnostic)
heroic-games-launcher RPM + Wine from RPM Fusion
lutris dnf + Wine + patched bwrap

Tagging

Event Ubuntu (unchanged) Fedora
Push to master edge edge-fedora, fedora, fedora-43
Tag v1.2.3 1.2.3, 1, latest 1.2.3-fedora, 1-fedora
Branch push branch-name branch-name-fedora

Directory layout

Each image gets a build-fedora/ alongside its existing build/:

images/base/build/          ← Ubuntu (untouched)
images/base/build-fedora/   ← Fedora (new)
...same pattern for all images...

CI structure

Ubuntu chain (unchanged):
  base → base-app → base-emu → emus (pegasus, es-de)
                  → apps (all 9 apps)

Fedora chain (new, runs in parallel):
  base-fedora → base-app-fedora → base-emu-fedora → emus-fedora (pegasus, es-de)
                                → apps-fedora (all 9 apps)

Test plan

  • Ubuntu CI chain produces identical images/tags as before
  • Fedora CI chain builds all images
  • ghcr.io/games-on-whales/steam:edge → Ubuntu
  • ghcr.io/games-on-whales/steam:edge-fedora → Fedora
  • ghcr.io/games-on-whales/steam:fedora → Fedora (standalone tag)
  • Wine/32-bit apps (lutris, heroic) build successfully on Fedora
