You know, immutable enterprise systems.

I installed HeliumOS (Almalinux bootc) on a corebooted Chromebook. Works really well, but audio needs to be configured.

The script needs a recent python which is not available there.

Go and rust can be installed for a user only. Is there something similar for python?

    Audio configuration sounds like a shell task. Why does it need Python? Is this script in any way an official part of the OS?

      No not a part of the OS and als no idea why they used python, that script is full of crazy functions so may be needed.

      I translated the python 3.12 to 3.9 using ChatGPT lol, as even after installing up-to-date python and placing it in my home $PATH the script threw errors.

      I think it worked, but there is an issue with my atomic system, so I likely need to build an RPM for the changes or use a different command for akmods or package the kernel myself or whatever.
