@ -54,3 +54,21 @@ semantics. Physical devices, power loss, sustained recording/performance, user
acceptance on other distributions and binary redistribution are still separate
qualification work. There is no DEB/RPM/AppImage, bundled runtime, autosave,
external plugin host or stable shared-library extension ABI in this release.
## Phase 20 local binary packaging and installed workflow
`make test-package` builds the release, stages installation only in a temporary
DESTDIR, writes a normalized Linux binary/development archive, checks its SHA-256
sidecar and per-file manifest, relocatable pkg-config paths and headless commands.
Same-host repeated packaging is byte-identical; dependency versions and toolchain
still determine binary compatibility. `make test-install` now repeats installation
to verify repair/upgrade of owned files while preserving an unrelated sentinel,
then compiles both C99 and C++17 installed consumers that create MIDI, save/reopen
and compare nonzero exact rendering. Removal remains exact and idempotent.
USER_MANUAL.md consolidates operation; KNOWN_LIMITATIONS.md lists qualification
gaps; MAINTENANCE.md defines the release checklist, regression and compatibility
policy. Build diagnostics make no server/plugin calls. There is no asynchronous
crash uploader or signal-handler cleanup: inspect OS core/debugger evidence on
the control side, preserving project/media recovery paths. No release is publicly
published by these commands, and human/device/listening checks remain pending.
