Add command_user=rns:rns to the generated /etc/init.d/rngit so the daemon drops privileges to the rns user, and create the pidfile with rns:rns ownership in start_pre so OpenRC can write it after dropping root. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

rns-installer
Interactive installer for the Reticulum Network Stack.
Detects your system, checks for existing installations, and walks you through setup with a simple wizard. Supports three installation methods:
- pip — install from PyPI, no RNS connectivity required (good for first-time bootstrap)
- source — clone and build directly from the RNS-hosted git repository
- rngit — fetch pre-built release artifacts over the RNS network
Also handles optional LXMF and Nomad Network installation, creates a dedicated
rns system user and virtualenv, writes systemd/OpenRC service files, and
creates /usr/local/bin symlinks for all RNS utilities.
