We have a blocker bug for KDE
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1436873
the crux of which is that we need different behavior on the live from
the installed environment.
Rex and I both have the vague memory that stuff done outside of
/home/liveuser gets copied to the actual install. But, I see that in
the fedora-workstation.ks, all sorts of stuff is being messed with in
/usr. How does this actually work? Can we have in the kickstart %post:
dnf -C remove plasma-pk-updates
and have that still end up on the final system?

Yes, you can have that (see the removal of dracut-config-generic
and have that still end up on the final system?
No, because the install is basically a dd of the partitions, but if
it's mandatory in fedora-comps in theory dnf should install it on the
first update

Ah -- unfortunately, that won't work here, because the thing we want
different is _the thing that tells you to apply updates_.
But fedora-live-workstation.ks¹ has this:
# disable updates plugin
cat >> /usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas/org.gnome.software.gschema.override
<< FOE
[org.gnome.software]
download-updates=false
FOE
How does that work without being copied to the final system?

The creation of that file is within the /etc/rc.d/init.d/livesys file, I
believe that is why it only applies to the live environment.

Yep! Now it all makes sense. Thanks :)
I definitely knew this at one time but it fell out of my brain, and I
didn't read the whole thing closely enough last night.
