After running the Linux install flow, my Arch/CachyOS system became corrupted.
The most suspicious command was:
sudo pacman -U --noconfirm ~/.cache/paru/clone/millennium/millennium-3.0.0_beta.17-1-
x86_64.pkg.tar.zst && sudo sh -c 'echo "/usr/lib/millennium/libmillennium_bootstrap_86x.so" > /etc/ld.so.preload'## Result
Critical system files ended up owned by nobody:nobody instead of root:root, including:
- /etc
- /etc/sudo.conf
- /etc/sudoers
- /usr/bin/sudo
- /usr/bin/su
- /usr/bin/passwd
- /usr/bin/pkexec
sudo now fails with:
sudo: /etc/sudo.conf is owned by uid 65534, should be 0
## Notes
I checked the temporary helper scripts and did not see obvious chown calls there, but
the install flow that writes Millennium into /etc/ld.so.preload looks very dangerous
and may be related.
## Expected
The installer should never risk system-wide breakage or modify anything in a way that
can affect the whole OS outside Steam.
