 ## CHANGELOGS

+## 10 October 2025 
+
+###    Hyprland 0.51.x install support
+    
+-     Hyprland builds 0.51.x from source
+-     Added documentation for upgrading from 0.49/0.50.x to 0.51.1.
+    
+###    New scripts and modules
+    - update-hyprland.sh: Manage the Hyprland stack with:
+      - --install / --dry-run build modes
+      - --only and --skip for selective components
+      - --with-deps to (re)install build deps
+      - --set {KEY=TAG} and --restore tag backup support
+      - --fetch-latest to pull latest GitHub release tags
+      - --via-helper to delegate summary-only dry-runs
+    - dry-run-build.sh: Compile-only helper with summary output
+    - install-scripts/wayland-protocols-src.sh: Build wayland-protocols from
+      source (>= 1.45) to satisfy Hyprland 0.51.x requirements
+    
+###   Core features
+    - Centralized tag management via hypr-tags.env; tags exported to all
+      modules. Environment overrides remain first priority.
+    - Automatic dependency ordering for Hyprland 0.51.x:
+      wayland-protocols-src → hyprland-protocols → hyprutils → hyprlang →
+      aquamarine → hyprland
+    - Optional auto-fetch of latest tags on install runs that include
+      hyprland (can be disabled via --no-fetch)
+    - Selective updates for targeted components and skip lists
+    - Dry-run mode to validate builds without installing
+    
+###  Installer integration
+    - install.sh reads hypr-tags.env and optionally refreshes tags.
+    - Ensures wayland-protocols-src is built before Hyprland.
+    - Maintains proper sequencing for the Hyprland dependencies.
+    
+###  Docs
+    - Debian-Hyprland-Install-Upgrade.md and .es.md:
+      - Add explicit section: Upgrade 0.49/0.50.x → 0.51.1
+      - Recommend: `./update-hyprland.sh --install --only hyprland`
+      - Provide optional `--with-deps` and `--dry-run` flows
+    - Full install via install.sh is not required for this
+      upgrade unless optional modules need refresh
+    
+###  Usage highlights
+    - Pin and upgrade to 0.51.1:
+      ./update-hyprland.sh --set HYPRLAND=v0.51.1
+      ./update-hyprland.sh --install --only hyprland
+    - Optional:
+      ./update-hyprland.sh --with-deps --install --only hyprland
+      ./update-hyprland.sh --dry-run --only hyprland
+    
+###   Notes
+    - Target OS remains Debian Trixie/Testing/SID 
+    - Run as sudo-capable user (not root)
+    - Ensure deb-src entries are enabled.
+
+

+
+## Resumen
+
+El proyecto Debian-Hyprland ahora incluye herramientas de automatización y gestión mejoradas, manteniendo la compatibilidad con el script original install.sh. Las principales adiciones son:
+
+- **Gestión centralizada de versiones** mediante `hypr-tags.env`
+- **Orden automático de dependencias** para los requisitos de Hyprland 0.51.x
+- **Pruebas de compilación con dry-run** sin modificar el sistema
+- **Actualizaciones selectivas de componentes** con `update-hyprland.sh`
+- **Obtención automática de últimas versiones** desde GitHub
+
+## Nuevas Funciones
+
+### install.sh mejorado
+El script original ahora:
+
+- **Unifica versiones**: Lee `hypr-tags.env` y exporta variables de versión a todos los módulos
+- **wayland-protocols automático**: Instala wayland-protocols desde el código fuente (≥1.45) antes de Hyprland
+- **Orden robusto de dependencias**: Garantiza la secuencia correcta de requisitos
+
+### Nuevos Scripts
+
+#### update-hyprland.sh
+Herramienta enfocada para gestionar y compilar solo el stack de Hyprland:
+```bash
+chmod +x ./update-hyprland.sh
+./update-hyprland.sh --help  # Ver todas las opciones
+```
+
+#### dry-run-build.sh
+Herramienta de pruebas que compila componentes sin instalarlos:
+```bash
+chmod +x ./dry-run-build.sh
+./dry-run-build.sh --help  # Ver todas las opciones
+```
+
+#### wayland-protocols-src.sh
+Módulo que compila wayland-protocols desde el origen para satisfacer los requisitos de Hyprland 0.51.x.
+
+## Gestión Central de Versiones
+
+### hypr-tags.env
+Archivo con etiquetas de versión para todos los componentes de Hyprland:
+
+```bash
+# Versiones actuales (ejemplo)
+HYPRLAND_TAG=v0.51.1
+AQUAMARINE_TAG=v0.9.3
+HYPRUTILS_TAG=v0.8.2
+HYPRLANG_TAG=v0.6.4
+HYPRGRAPHICS_TAG=v0.1.5
+HYPRWAYLAND_SCANNER_TAG=v0.4.5
+HYPRLAND_PROTOCOLS_TAG=v0.6.4
+HYPRLAND_QT_SUPPORT_TAG=v0.1.0
+HYPRLAND_QTUTILS_TAG=v0.1.4
+WAYLAND_PROTOCOLS_TAG=1.45
+```
+
+### Prioridad de Sobrescritura de Versiones
+1. Variables de entorno (exportadas)
+2. Valores en el archivo `hypr-tags.env`
+3. Valores por defecto en cada módulo
+
+## Métodos de Instalación
+
+### Método 1: Instalación Completa Original
+```bash
+# Instalación estándar con todos los componentes
+chmod +x install.sh
+./install.sh
+```
+
+Ahora, este método automáticamente:
+- Carga versiones desde `hypr-tags.env`
+- Instala wayland-protocols desde el origen antes de Hyprland
+- Mantiene el orden correcto de dependencias
+
+### Método 2: Solo el Stack de Hyprland
+```bash
+# Instala solo Hyprland y componentes esenciales
+./update-hyprland.sh --install
+```
+
+### Método 3: Instalación Nueva con Últimas Versiones
+```bash
+# Obtiene últimas versiones de GitHub e instala
+./update-hyprland.sh --fetch-latest --install
+```
+
+### Método 4: Instalación con Preset
+```bash
+# Usa un preset para elecciones automáticas
+./install.sh --preset ./preset.sh
+```
+
+## Flujos de Actualización
+
+Enlace rápido: [Actualización 0.49/0.50.x → 0.51.1](#actualización-049050x--0511)
+
+### Actualizar a la Última Versión de Hyprland
+
+#### Opción A: Descubrimiento Automático
+```bash
+# Obtiene las últimas etiquetas e instala
+./update-hyprland.sh --fetch-latest --install
+```
+
+#### Opción B: Versión Específica
+```bash
+# Establece una versión específica de Hyprland
+./update-hyprland.sh --set HYPRLAND=v0.51.1 --install
+```
+
+#### Opción C: Probar Antes de Instalar
+```bash
+# Prueba la compilación primero, luego instala si es exitoso
+./update-hyprland.sh --fetch-latest --dry-run
+# Si es exitoso:
+./update-hyprland.sh --install
+```
+
+### Actualizar Componentes Individuales
+
+```bash
+# Actualiza solo librerías núcleo (a menudo necesario para nuevas versiones de Hyprland)
+./update-hyprland.sh --fetch-latest --install --only hyprutils,hyprlang
+
+# Actualiza aquamarine específicamente
+./update-hyprland.sh --set AQUAMARINE=v0.9.3 --install --only aquamarine
+```
+
+### Actualizaciones Selectivas
+
+```bash
+# Instalar todo excepto los componentes Qt
+./update-hyprland.sh --install --skip hyprland-qt-support,hyprland-qtutils
+
+# Instalar solo componentes específicos
+./update-hyprland.sh --install --only hyprland,aquamarine
+```
+
+### Actualización: 0.49/0.50.x ➜ 0.51.1
+
+Si actualmente estás en Hyprland 0.49 o 0.50.x, puedes actualizar directamente a 0.51.1 sin una reinstalación completa.
+
+Ruta recomendada:
+```bash
+# Asegura que hypr-tags.env apunte a la versión objetivo (omitir si ya es v0.51.1)
+./update-hyprland.sh --set HYPRLAND=v0.51.1
+
+# Actualiza Hyprland (los prerrequisitos se incluyen y ordenan automáticamente)
+./update-hyprland.sh --install --only hyprland
+```
+
+Notas:
+- El comando garantiza y ejecuta, según sea necesario: wayland-protocols-src, hyprland-protocols, hyprutils, hyprlang, aquamarine y luego hyprland.
+- No es necesario usar install.sh para esta actualización, a menos que también quieras instalar/actualizar módulos opcionales (p. ej., SDDM, Bluetooth, Thunar, AGS, dotfiles) o estés recuperándote de una instalación fallida/parcial.
+- Opcional: agrega --with-deps para reinstalar dependencias primero:
+```bash
+./update-hyprland.sh --with-deps --install --only hyprland
+```
+- Puedes hacer un dry-run primero para validar:
+```bash
+./update-hyprland.sh --dry-run --only hyprland
+```
+
+## Pruebas con Dry-Run
+
+### ¿Por qué usar Dry-Run?
+- Probar compatibilidad de compilación antes de instalar
+- Validar combinaciones de versiones
+- Depurar problemas de compilación sin cambios en el sistema
+- Integración en CI/CD
+
+### Uso Básico de Dry-Run
+
+```bash
+# Probar la configuración actual de versiones
+./update-hyprland.sh --dry-run
+
+# Probar con últimas versiones de GitHub
+./update-hyprland.sh --fetch-latest --dry-run
+
+# Probar una versión específica
+./update-hyprland.sh --set HYPRLAND=v0.51.1 --dry-run
+```
+
+### Pruebas Avanzadas con Dry-Run
+
+```bash
+# Formato alternativo de resumen
+./update-hyprland.sh --via-helper
+
+# Probar con instalación de dependencias
+./dry-run-build.sh --with-deps
+
+# Probar solo componentes específicos
+./dry-run-build.sh --only hyprland,aquamarine
+```
+
+### Limitaciones de Dry-Run
+- **Las dependencias se instalan**: apt se ejecuta para asegurar la compilación
+- **Requisitos de pkg-config**: Algunos componentes necesitan requisitos instalados en el sistema
+- **Sin cambios en el sistema**: No instala archivos en /usr/local o /usr
+
+## Gestión de Logs
+
+### Ubicación de Logs
+Todas las actividades de construcción generan logs con sello de tiempo en:
+```
+Install-Logs/
+├── 01-Hyprland-Install-Scripts-YYYY-MM-DD-HHMMSS.log  # Log principal de instalación
+├── install-DD-HHMMSS_module-name.log                   # Logs por módulo
+├── build-dry-run-YYYY-MM-DD-HHMMSS.log                # Resumen de dry-run
+└── update-hypr-YYYY-MM-DD-HHMMSS.log                  # Resumen de actualización
+```
+
+### Análisis de Logs
+```bash
+# Ver el log de instalación más reciente
+ls -t Install-Logs/*.log | head -1 | xargs less
+
+# Buscar errores en un módulo específico
+grep -i error Install-Logs/install-*hyprland*.log
+
+# Ver resumen de dry-run
+cat Install-Logs/build-dry-run-*.log
+```
+
+### Retención de Logs
+- Los logs se acumulan con el tiempo para referencia histórica
+- Se recomienda limpieza manual periódica:
+```bash
+# Mantener solo logs de los últimos 30 días
+find Install-Logs/ -name "*.log" -mtime +30 -delete
+```
+
+## Uso Avanzado
+
+### Gestión de Versiones
+
+#### Copia de Seguridad y Restauración
+```bash
+# Las etiquetas se respaldan automáticamente cuando cambian
+# Restaurar la copia más reciente
+./update-hyprland.sh --restore --dry-run
+```
+
+#### Múltiples Conjuntos de Versiones
+```bash
+# Guardar configuración actual
+cp hypr-tags.env hypr-tags-stable.env
+
+# Probar versiones experimentales
+./update-hyprland.sh --fetch-latest --dry-run
+
+# Restaurar estable si es necesario
+cp hypr-tags-stable.env hypr-tags.env
+```
+
+### Integración con el Entorno
+
+#### PKG_CONFIG_PATH personalizado
+```bash
+# Asegurar que /usr/local tenga prioridad
+export PKG_CONFIG_PATH="/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig:/usr/local/share/pkgconfig:${PKG_CONFIG_PATH:-}"
+./update-hyprland.sh --install
+```
+
+#### Compilaciones en Paralelo
+```bash
+# Controlar el paralelismo (por defecto: todos los núcleos)
+export MAKEFLAGS="-j4"
+./update-hyprland.sh --install
+```
+
+### Flujo de Trabajo de Desarrollo
+
+#### Probar Nuevos Lanzamientos
+```bash
+# 1. Crear entorno de pruebas
+cp hypr-tags.env hypr-tags.backup
+
+# 2. Probar nueva versión
+./update-hyprland.sh --set HYPRLAND=v0.52.0 --dry-run
+
+# 3. Instalar si es exitoso
+./update-hyprland.sh --install
+
+# 4. Revertir si hay problemas
+./update-hyprland.sh --restore --install
+```
+
+#### Desarrollo de Componentes
+```bash
+# Solo instalar dependencias
+./update-hyprland.sh --with-deps --dry-run
+
+# Pruebas manuales de módulo
+DRY_RUN=1 ./install-scripts/hyprland.sh
+
+# Ver logs de un módulo específico
+tail -f Install-Logs/install-*hyprland*.log
+```
+
+## Solución de Problemas
+
+### Problemas Comunes
+
+#### Falla de Configuración con CMake
+**Síntomas**: "Package dependency requirement not satisfied"
+
+**Soluciones**:
+```bash
+# Instalar requisitos faltantes

+
+# Limpiar caché de compilación
+rm -rf hyprland aquamarine hyprutils hyprlang
+
+# Reintentar instalación
+./update-hyprland.sh --install --only hyprland
+```
+
+#### Errores de Compilación
+**Síntomas**: "too many errors emitted"
+
+**Soluciones**:
+```bash
+# Actualizar dependencias núcleo primero
+./update-hyprland.sh --fetch-latest --install --only hyprutils,hyprlang
+
+# Revisar incompatibilidades de API en logs
+grep -A5 -B5 "error:" Install-Logs/install-*hyprland*.log
+```
+
+#### Etiqueta No Encontrada
+**Síntomas**: "Remote branch X not found"
+
+**Soluciones**:
+```bash
+# Ver etiquetas disponibles
+git ls-remote --tags https://github.com/hyprwm/Hyprland

+
+## Overview
+
+The Debian-Hyprland project now includes enhanced automation and management tools while maintaining backward compatibility with the original install.sh script. The key additions are:
+
+- **Centralized version management** via `hypr-tags.env`
+- **Automated dependency ordering** for Hyprland 0.51.x requirements
+- **Dry-run compilation testing** without system modifications
+- **Selective component updates** via `update-hyprland.sh`
+- **GitHub latest tag fetching** for automatic version discovery
+
+## New Features
+
+### Enhanced install.sh
+The original install.sh script now includes:
+
+- **Tag consistency**: Reads `hypr-tags.env` and exports version variables to all modules
+- **Automatic wayland-protocols**: Installs wayland-protocols from source (≥1.45) before Hyprland
+- **Robust dependency ordering**: Ensures prerequisites are built in the correct sequence
+
+### New Scripts
+
+#### update-hyprland.sh
+A focused tool for managing and building just the Hyprland stack:
+```bash
+chmod +x ./update-hyprland.sh
+./update-hyprland.sh --help  # View all options
+```
+
+#### dry-run-build.sh
+A testing tool that compiles components without installing:
+```bash
+chmod +x ./dry-run-build.sh
+./dry-run-build.sh --help  # View all options
+```
+
+#### wayland-protocols-src.sh
+A new module that builds wayland-protocols from source to satisfy Hyprland 0.51.x requirements.
+
+## Central Version Management
+
+### hypr-tags.env
+This file contains version tags for all Hyprland components:
+
+```bash
+# Current versions (example)
+HYPRLAND_TAG=v0.51.1
+AQUAMARINE_TAG=v0.9.3
+HYPRUTILS_TAG=v0.8.2
+HYPRLANG_TAG=v0.6.4
+HYPRGRAPHICS_TAG=v0.1.5
+HYPRWAYLAND_SCANNER_TAG=v0.4.5
+HYPRLAND_PROTOCOLS_TAG=v0.6.4
+HYPRLAND_QT_SUPPORT_TAG=v0.1.0
+HYPRLAND_QTUTILS_TAG=v0.1.4
+WAYLAND_PROTOCOLS_TAG=1.45
+```
+
+### Version Override Priority
+1. Environment variables (exported)
+2. hypr-tags.env file values
+3. Default hardcoded values in each module
+
+## Installation Methods
+
+### Method 1: Original Full Installation
+```bash
+# Standard installation with all components
+chmod +x install.sh
+./install.sh
+```
+
+This method now automatically:
+- Loads versions from `hypr-tags.env`
+- Installs wayland-protocols from source before Hyprland
+- Maintains proper dependency ordering
+
+### Method 2: Hyprland Stack Only
+```bash
+# Install only Hyprland and essential components
+./update-hyprland.sh --install
+```
+
+### Method 3: Fresh Installation with Latest Versions
+```bash
+# Fetch latest GitHub releases and install
+./update-hyprland.sh --fetch-latest --install
+```
+
+### Method 4: Preset-Based Installation
+```bash
+# Use preset file for automated choices
+./install.sh --preset ./preset.sh
+```
+
+## Upgrade Workflows
+
+Quick link: [Upgrade 0.49/0.50.x → 0.51.1](#upgrade-049050x--0511)
+
+### Upgrading to Latest Hyprland Release
+
+#### Option A: Automatic Discovery
+```bash
+# Fetch latest tags and install
+./update-hyprland.sh --fetch-latest --install
+```
+
+#### Option B: Specific Version
+```bash
+# Set specific Hyprland version
+./update-hyprland.sh --set HYPRLAND=v0.51.1 --install
+```
+
+#### Option C: Test Before Installing
+```bash
+# Test compilation first, then install if successful
+./update-hyprland.sh --fetch-latest --dry-run
+# If successful:
+./update-hyprland.sh --install
+```
+
+### Upgrading Individual Components
+
+```bash
+# Update only core libraries (often needed for new Hyprland versions)
+./update-hyprland.sh --fetch-latest --install --only hyprutils,hyprlang
+
+# Update aquamarine specifically
+./update-hyprland.sh --set AQUAMARINE=v0.9.3 --install --only aquamarine
+```
+
+### Selective Updates
+
+```bash
+# Install everything except Qt components
+./update-hyprland.sh --install --skip hyprland-qt-support,hyprland-qtutils
+
+# Install only specific components
+./update-hyprland.sh --install --only hyprland,aquamarine
+```
+
+### Upgrade: 0.49/0.50.x ➜ 0.51.1
+
+If you’re currently on Hyprland 0.49 or 0.50.x, you can upgrade directly to 0.51.1 without a full reinstall.
+
+Recommended path:
+```bash
+# Ensure hypr-tags.env pins the target version (skip if already v0.51.1)
+./update-hyprland.sh --set HYPRLAND=v0.51.1
+
+# Upgrade Hyprland (prerequisites are auto-included and ordered)
+./update-hyprland.sh --install --only hyprland
+```
+
+Notes:
+- The command will automatically ensure and run, as needed: wayland-protocols-src, hyprland-protocols, hyprutils, hyprlang, aquamarine, then hyprland.
+- Full install via install.sh is not required for this upgrade unless you also want to install/refresh optional modules (e.g., SDDM, Bluetooth, Thunar, AGS, dotfiles) or you’re recovering from a failed/partial setup.
+- Optional: add --with-deps to re-run dependency installation first:
+```bash
+./update-hyprland.sh --with-deps --install --only hyprland
+```
+- You can dry-run first to validate:
+```bash
+./update-hyprland.sh --dry-run --only hyprland
+```
+
+## Dry-Run Testing
+
+### Why Use Dry-Run?
+- Test compilation compatibility before installing
+- Validate version combinations
+- Debug build issues without system changes
+- CI/CD pipeline integration
+
+### Basic Dry-Run Usage
+
+```bash
+# Test current tag configuration
+./update-hyprland.sh --dry-run
+
+# Test with latest GitHub releases
+./update-hyprland.sh --fetch-latest --dry-run
+
+# Test specific version
+./update-hyprland.sh --set HYPRLAND=v0.51.1 --dry-run
+```
+
+### Advanced Dry-Run Testing
+
+```bash
+# Use alternative summary format
+./update-hyprland.sh --via-helper
+
+# Test with dependencies installation
+./dry-run-build.sh --with-deps
+
+# Test only specific components
+./dry-run-build.sh --only hyprland,aquamarine
+```
+
+### Dry-Run Limitations
+- **Dependencies still install**: apt operations run to ensure compilation succeeds
+- **pkg-config requirements**: Some components need system-installed prerequisites
+- **No system changes**: No files installed to /usr/local or /usr
+
+## Log Management
+
+### Log Location
+All build activities generate timestamped logs in:
+```
+Install-Logs/
+├── 01-Hyprland-Install-Scripts-YYYY-MM-DD-HHMMSS.log  # Main install log
+├── install-DD-HHMMSS_module-name.log                   # Per-module logs
+├── build-dry-run-YYYY-MM-DD-HHMMSS.log                # Dry-run summary
+└── update-hypr-YYYY-MM-DD-HHMMSS.log                  # Update tool summary
+```
+
+### Log Analysis
+```bash
+# View most recent install log
+ls -t Install-Logs/*.log | head -1 | xargs less
+
+# Check for errors in specific module
+grep -i error Install-Logs/install-*hyprland*.log
+
+# View dry-run summary
+cat Install-Logs/build-dry-run-*.log
+```
+
+### Log Retention
+- Logs accumulate over time for historical reference
+- Manual cleanup recommended periodically:
+```bash
+# Keep only logs from last 30 days
+find Install-Logs/ -name "*.log" -mtime +30 -delete
+```
+
+## Advanced Usage
+
+### Tag Management
+
+#### Backup and Restore
+```bash
+# Tags are automatically backed up on changes
+# Restore most recent backup
+./update-hyprland.sh --restore --dry-run
+```
+
+#### Multiple Version Sets
+```bash
+# Save current configuration
+cp hypr-tags.env hypr-tags-stable.env
+
+# Try experimental versions
+./update-hyprland.sh --fetch-latest --dry-run
+
+# Restore stable if needed
+cp hypr-tags-stable.env hypr-tags.env
+```
+
+### Environment Integration
+
+#### Custom PKG_CONFIG_PATH
+```bash
+# Ensure /usr/local takes precedence
+export PKG_CONFIG_PATH="/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig:/usr/local/share/pkgconfig:${PKG_CONFIG_PATH:-}"
+./update-hyprland.sh --install
+```
+
+#### Parallel Builds
+```bash
+# Control build parallelism (default: all cores)
+export MAKEFLAGS="-j4"
+./update-hyprland.sh --install
+```
+
+### Development Workflow
+
+#### Testing New Releases
+```bash
+# 1. Create test environment
+cp hypr-tags.env hypr-tags.backup
+
+# 2. Test new version
+./update-hyprland.sh --set HYPRLAND=v0.52.0 --dry-run
+
+# 3. Install if successful
+./update-hyprland.sh --install
+
+# 4. Rollback if issues
+./update-hyprland.sh --restore --install
+```
+
+#### Component Development
+```bash
+# Install dependencies only
+./update-hyprland.sh --with-deps --dry-run
+
+# Manual module testing
+DRY_RUN=1 ./install-scripts/hyprland.sh
+
+# Check logs for specific module
+tail -f Install-Logs/install-*hyprland*.log
+```
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Common Issues
+
+#### CMake Configuration Fails
+**Symptoms**: "Package dependency requirement not satisfied"
+
+**Solutions**:
+```bash
+# Install missing prerequisites
+./update-hyprland.sh --install --only wayland-protocols-src,hyprutils,hyprlang
+
+# Clear build cache
+rm -rf hyprland aquamarine hyprutils hyprlang
+
+# Retry installation
+./update-hyprland.sh --install --only hyprland
+```
+
+#### Compilation Errors
+**Symptoms**: "too many errors emitted"
+
+**Solutions**:
+```bash
+# Update core dependencies first
+./update-hyprland.sh --fetch-latest --install --only hyprutils,hyprlang
+
+# Check for API mismatches in logs
+grep -A5 -B5 "error:" Install-Logs/install-*hyprland*.log
+```
+
+#### Tag Not Found
+**Symptoms**: "Remote branch X not found"
+
+**Solutions**:
+```bash
+# Check available tags
+git ls-remote --tags https://github.com/hyprwm/Hyprland
+
+# Use confirmed existing tag
+./update-hyprland.sh --set HYPRLAND=v0.50.1 --install
+```
+
+### Debug Steps
+
+1. **Check system compatibility**:
+   ```bash
+   # Verify Debian version
+   cat /etc/os-release
+   
+   # Ensure deb-src enabled
+   grep -E "^deb-src" /etc/apt/sources.list
+   ```
+
+2. **Verify environment**:
+   ```bash
+   # Check current tags
+   cat hypr-tags.env
+   
+   # Test dry-run first
+   ./update-hyprland.sh --dry-run --only hyprland
+   ```
+
+3. **Analyze logs**:
+   ```bash
+   # Most recent errors
+   grep -i "error\|fail" Install-Logs/*.log | tail -20
+   
+   # Module-specific issues
+   ls -la Install-Logs/install-*[component]*.log
+   ```
+
+### Getting Help
+
+1. **Check logs**: Always review Install-Logs/ for detailed error information
+2. **Test dry-run**: Use --dry-run to validate before installing
+3. **Community support**: Submit issues with relevant log excerpts
+4. **Documentation**: Refer to main project README.md for base requirements
+
+## Migration from Previous Versions
+
+### Existing Installations
+The new tools work alongside existing installations:
+
+```bash
+# Update existing installation
+./update-hyprland.sh --install
+
+# Test without affecting current system
+./update-hyprland.sh --dry-run
+```
+
+### Converting to Tag Management
+```bash
+# Current versions are saved to hypr-tags.env automatically
+# Verify with:
+cat hypr-tags.env
+
+# Modify versions as needed:
+./update-hyprland.sh --set HYPRLAND=v0.51.1
+```
+
+The enhanced workflow provides better control, testing capabilities, and automation while maintaining full compatibility with the original installation process.

- This script is meant to install in Debian Testing (Trixie) and Debian Unstable (SID). This script Will NOT work with Bookworm
+- This script is meant to install in Debian Trixie or newer . This script Will NOT work with Bookworm
 - If However, decided to try, recommend to install SDDM. Apart from GDM and SDDM, any other Login Manager may not work nor launch Hyprland. However, hyprland can be launched through tty by type Hyprland
 - 🕯️ network-manager-gnome (nm-applet) has been removed from the packages to install. This is because it is known to restart the networkmanager causing issues in the installation process. After you boot up, inorder to get the network-manager applet, install network-manager-gnome. `sudo apt install network-manager-gnome` See below if your network or wifi became unmanaged after installation
 - If you have nvidia, and wanted to use proprietary drivers, uninstall nouveau first (if installed). This script will be installing proprietary nvidia drivers and will not deal with removal of nouveau.
 - NVIDIA users / owners, after installation, check [`THIS`](https://github.com/JaKooLit/Hyprland-Dots/wiki/Notes_to_remember#--for-nvidia-gpu-users)
+- NIVIDIA users:  Strongly suggest you visit this site and install current drivers for newer GPUs. [`NVIDIA-Drivers`](https://github.com/mexersus/debian-nvidia-drivers)
 
 #### ✨ Costumize the packages to be installed

-> [!IMPORTANT]
-> This is very Important for Debian and Ubuntu Dots
- Some parts of KooL's Hyprland Dots [`LINK`](https://github.com/JaKooLit/Hyprland-Dots) are not compatible on Debian and Ubuntu especially the hyprland settings. 
- That is the reason the DOTS for those distro's are "fixed" and they are being pulled on different branch of KooL Dots.

- To update your KooL's Dots follow this [WIKI](https://github.com/JaKooLit/Hyprland-Dots/wiki#--debian-and-ubuntu-hyprland-dots-updating-notes-)

+# update-hyprland.sh
+# Manage and build just the Hyprland stack (Hyprland + companion apps/libs)
+# - Maintains a central tag file (hypr-tags.env) with versions
+# - Can fetch latest release tags from GitHub and update hypr-tags.env
+# - Can restore tags from a backup
+# - Can run a dry-run build (compile only) or install build of the stack
+#
+# Usage examples:
+#   chmod +x ./update-hyprland.sh
+#   ./update-hyprland.sh --dry-run                 # compile-only using current tags
+#   ./update-hyprland.sh --install                 # compile + install using current tags
+#   ./update-hyprland.sh --fetch-latest --dry-run  # refresh tags to latest, then dry-run
+#   ./update-hyprland.sh --set HYPRLAND=v0.51.1 --dry-run  # set one or more tags
+#   ./update-hyprland.sh --restore --dry-run       # restore most recent backup of tags and dry-run
+#   ./update-hyprland.sh --only hyprland,hyprutils --dry-run
+#   ./update-hyprland.sh --skip aquamarine --install
+#   ./update-hyprland.sh --with-deps --dry-run
+#   ./update-hyprland.sh --fetch-latest --via-helper   # use dry-run-build.sh for a summary-only run
+#
+# Notes:
+# - Requires curl; for --fetch-latest, jq is recommended (installed by 00-dependencies.sh)

Don Williams	d298480443	feat: Hyprland 0.51.x upgrade tooling, central tags, docs update Introduce focused Hyprland stack upgrade tooling and improve install ordering for 0.51.x, with centralized version management and detailed documentation for upgrading from 0.49/0.50.x to 0.51.1. New scripts and modules - update-hyprland.sh: Manage the Hyprland stack with: - --install / --dry-run build modes - --only and --skip for selective components - --with-deps to (re)install build deps - --set {KEY=TAG} and --restore tag backup support - --fetch-latest to pull latest GitHub release tags - --via-helper to delegate summary-only dry-runs - dry-run-build.sh: Compile-only helper with summary output - install-scripts/wayland-protocols-src.sh: Build wayland-protocols from source (>= 1.45) to satisfy Hyprland 0.51.x requirements Core features - Centralized tag management via hypr-tags.env; tags exported to all modules. Environment overrides remain first priority. - Automatic dependency ordering for Hyprland 0.51.x: wayland-protocols-src → hyprland-protocols → hyprutils → hyprlang → aquamarine → hyprland - Optional auto-fetch of latest tags on install runs that include hyprland (can be disabled via --no-fetch) - Selective updates for targeted components and skip lists - Dry-run mode to validate builds without installing Installer integration - install.sh reads hypr-tags.env and optionally refreshes tags. - Ensures wayland-protocols-src is built before Hyprland. - Maintains robust sequencing for the Hyprland stack. Docs - Debian-Hyprland-Install-Upgrade.md and .es.md: - Add explicit section: Upgrade 0.49/0.50.x → 0.51.1 - Recommend: `./update-hyprland.sh --install --only hyprland` - Provide optional `--with-deps` and `--dry-run` flows - Add quick link anchor under Upgrade Workflows - Clarify that full install via install.sh is not required for this upgrade unless optional modules need refresh or recovering from a partial/failed setup Usage highlights - Pin and upgrade to 0.51.1: ./update-hyprland.sh --set HYPRLAND=v0.51.1 ./update-hyprland.sh --install --only hyprland - Optional: ./update-hyprland.sh --with-deps --install --only hyprland ./update-hyprland.sh --dry-run --only hyprland Notes - Target OS remains Debian Trixie/SID; run as sudo-capable user (not root); ensure deb-src entries are enabled.	2025-10-09 16:51:11 -04:00
