docs(bazzite): join the input group via ujust add-user-to-input-group
On Bazzite (atomic rpm-ostree) `sudo usermod -aG input $USER` doesn't stick —
/etc/group is managed declaratively, so the change is dropped or reverted on
the next update. The supported path is the `ujust add-user-to-input-group`
recipe, which edits the group the immutable-OS-correct way. Update the bazzite
README + the packaging quickstart + the troubleshooting note (which also now
points at the host's "virtual gamepad/DualSense created" vs "creation failed"
log as the unambiguous signal).

# Packaging punktfunk for Fedora / Bazzite
The punktfunk host is Linux-only and links system FFmpeg (NVENC), PipeWire, Opus and
the NVIDIA driver. This directory packages it for the **Fedora Atomic / Bazzite** world
(rpm-ostree + bootc), where most of those deps are already present.
> 👉 **End-to-end Bazzite setup walkthrough** (install → udev/group → `host.env` → service →
> firewall → verify → troubleshooting): [`bazzite/README.md`](bazzite/README.md). This file is the
> higher-level packaging rationale.
```
packaging/
rpm/punktfunk.spec # the RPM (builds punktfunk-host from source with cargo)
bazzite/host.env # gamescope-default config for a Bazzite appliance
bazzite/README.md # step-by-step Bazzite setup guide
bootc/Containerfile # bake punktfunk into a Bazzite-based atomic image

```
## What's needed beyond base Fedora
| Dependency | Where it comes from |
|---|---|
| `ffmpeg-libs` with **NVENC** | **RPM Fusion nonfree** (`ffmpeg`, not `ffmpeg-free`) |
| NVIDIA driver (`libnvidia-encode`, `libEGL_nvidia`) | Bazzite **-nvidia** images ship it; plain Fedora: `akmod-nvidia` + `xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-cuda` |
| gamescope, PipeWire, wireplumber | **Bazzite ships these**; plain Fedora: `dnf install gamescope pipewire wireplumber` |
| `opus`, `libei` | Fedora base / updates |
On **Bazzite** the only genuinely new runtime bits are `ffmpeg-libs` (RPM Fusion) + `opus` +
`libei` — the rest of the stack is already there. The default backend is **gamescope**
(`packaging/bazzite/host.env`), which the host spawns headless per session — no desktop login.
## Option A — COPR (per-host, `rpm-ostree install`)
1. Create a COPR project, enable **build-from-SCM** pointing at this repo, spec path
`packaging/rpm/punktfunk.spec` (see `copr/README.md`). Under *External Repositories* add
RPM Fusion nonfree so `ffmpeg-devel` resolves at build time.
2. On the Bazzite host:
```sh
# RPM Fusion (for the NVENC ffmpeg) — usually already enabled on Bazzite
rpm-ostree install \
https://mirrors.rpmfusion.org/free/fedora/rpmfusion-free-release-$(rpm -E %fedora).noarch.rpm \
https://mirrors.rpmfusion.org/nonfree/fedora/rpmfusion-nonfree-release-$(rpm -E %fedora).noarch.rpm
# enable the COPR + install punktfunk
sudo wget -O /etc/yum.repos.d/_copr_punktfunk.repo \
https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/enricobuehler/punktfunk/repo/fedora-$(rpm -E %fedora)/
rpm-ostree install punktfunk
systemctl reboot
```
## Option B — bootc (image-based, atomic)
Layer punktfunk into a Bazzite image once, then rebase any number of hosts onto it — no
per-host drift. See `bootc/Containerfile`:
```sh
podman build -t ghcr.io/<you>/bazzite-punktfunk -f packaging/bootc/Containerfile .
podman push ghcr.io/<you>/bazzite-punktfunk
# on the target:
sudo bootc switch ghcr.io/<you>/bazzite-punktfunk && systemctl reboot
```
## First-run setup (either option)
```sh
ujust add-user-to-input-group # virtual gamepads need /dev/uinput (then re-login).
# On Bazzite use ujust, NOT `usermod -aG input` (atomic OS — it won't stick).
mkdir -p ~/.config/punktfunk
cp /usr/share/punktfunk/host.env.bazzite ~/.config/punktfunk/host.env # edit (gamescope app, etc.)
systemctl --user enable --now punktfunk-host
```
Pair a stock Moonlight client (mDNS-discovered), or connect the native punktfunk/1 client.
## Why not Flatpak?
The host needs unsandboxed access the zero-copy NVENC path, `/dev/uinput`, the PipeWire
graph and the compositor's privileged protocols — a Flatpak sandbox fights all of these.
An RPM (or the bootc layer) installs into the host system where those just work.
## Building the SRPM/RPM locally (Fedora only)
```sh
git archive --format=tar.gz --prefix=punktfunk-0.0.1/ -o ~/rpmbuild/SOURCES/punktfunk-0.0.1.tar.gz HEAD
rpmbuild -ba packaging/rpm/punktfunk.spec # needs the BuildRequires from the spec
```
(Not buildable on Debian/Ubuntu — use a Fedora toolbox/container or COPR.)
