* fix(updater): re-prove the retained Linux package before a privileged retry
The recovery card's "Try Automatic Install Again" handed electron-updater the
cached .deb/.rpm path with no re-verification. That path is user-writable, so
the digest proven when the card rendered says nothing about the bytes dpkg or
rpm would read as root minutes later — and the card's other actions (copy
command, reveal) validated while the one that actually installs did not.
Re-hash the artifact immediately before the install, ahead of any destructive
quit prep, and abort with copy that tells the user to download again. This
narrows the window rather than closing it; only an immutable handoff would
close it, which is a larger change.
Also fix a macOS-only failure this suite gained with the platform-conditional
pre-commit copy: the expectation hardcoded the non-Darwin string, so the suite
was red on any Mac.
* fix(updater): re-prove the retained Linux package on every install path
Review findings on the original fix:
1. The abort force-sent its error status with no staleness guard, so a
verdict from a hash that outlived its cycle overwrote whatever card had
replaced it (a fresh 'available' from Check for Updates became a stale
"package no longer matches" error). Now keyed on an install-cycle
signature, the same protection failLinuxPackageRecovery already had.
2. 'read-failed' (EMFILE/EIO/EACCES mid-stream) was described as a digest
mismatch and tore down the recovery card. It now reuses the accurate
per-reason copy and keeps the card, exactly as the Copy/Show paths do
for the same reason. It still fails closed: chmod 000 on a swapped file
would otherwise be a one-line bypass, since root can read what we cannot.
3. The check was keyed on the recovery status, so it only covered the retry.
The primary 'downloaded -> Restart to Update' install, whose window is
hours rather than seconds, handed the same user-writable path to dpkg/rpm
unverified. Moved into performQuitAndInstall keyed on the tracked
artifact, so both paths are covered; non-Linux keeps its exact timing
through a synchronous artifact guard.
4. The async prologue had moved the "quit timer is always cleared"
invariant out of a try/finally. The re-proof now owns a flag cleared in
finally, and a rejection fails closed instead of wedging the updater.
5. The install re-proof no longer joins an in-flight validation, so its
proof cannot predate the click that asked for it.
6. The retry button gained the pending affordance the other actions have,
since the click now streams the whole package before anything happens.
Tests: real packages are staged in a real updater cache for the whole Linux
block (a path that never existed would now abort every install); new cases
cover the swapped primary install, the stale-verdict drop, the preserved
card on read-failed, the rejecting re-proof, the concurrent second click,
and the fresh-hash guarantee. Each was verified to fail with only its
source change reverted.
* fix(updater): tell the renderer when a stale verdict abandons the install
The cycle guard that stops a stale digest verdict from clobbering a newer
card also withheld the only signal the renderer has that the restart was
called off. The preload abort relay keys on an 'error' status, so with the
status suppressed the window stays restart-prepared for the rest of the
session: Terminal/Settings skip their unsaved-work prompts and the shutdown
checkpoint stays deduped, so a later real quit stages no fresh snapshot.
Push the abandon from performQuitAndInstall's single return-false site, so
it cannot depend on what the reporter decides about the status text, and
relay it to the existing relay.abort() (a no-op unless the renderer armed
a restart). The status stays cycle-guarded exactly as before.
Tests: the stale-verdict and swapped-primary-install cases now assert the
push, a committed install asserts its absence, and the preload relay test
covers the new channel. Each fails with only its source change reverted.
