A home scan reported two EICAR threats whose paths were Hound's own
vault. SKIP_PREFIXES held the system vault at /var/lib/hound/vault but
not the per-user one under $XDG_DATA_HOME/hound/quarantine, which is a
different absolute path for every user and so cannot be a literal. The
check now matches a `hound` component followed by `quarantine` or
`vault` anywhere in the path, with a test that ordinary paths merely
mentioning either word are still scanned. A scanner that detects its
own evidence locker reports threats that no longer exist anywhere they
can hurt anyone.
Appearance settings, the third pair of fields declared from the start
and wired to nothing (after close_to_tray and auto_update_signatures):
- Theme: follow system | light | dark, previewing live rather than
only on save, since a control that does nothing until you press
another control feels broken.
- Monochromatic tray icon: one glyph instead of the colour ladder.
The tooltip still names the state, so only the colour is dropped.
The light theme had to be built — the stylesheet was dark-only. It is
not an inversion: the state colours are darkened until they hold their
contrast on white (the dark theme's green is 2.2:1 there, unreadable as
text) and the neutrals keep a slight violet bias so they read as chosen
rather than as a default grey. One hardcoded near-black on the log
panel would have been near-invisible in light mode; it is a token now.
Which monochrome tone to draw depends on the panel, and no portable way
exists to ask a panel what colour it is — so the webview resolves the
theme (including "follow system", which only prefers-color-scheme can
answer) and tells the tray. One place decides which theme is showing.
The tray now announces a release once per version rather than once per
poll, and its menu entry reads "Update available — install Hound X…".
Also removes ~120 lines: the GUI had its own download, hash-check and
staging implementation for updates. `hound update` does exactly that,
as root, and is the path with tests behind it, so the app runs it under
pkexec instead. That left `hound stage-update` with no caller, and dead
privileged code paths are liabilities, so it is gone.
Verified end to end: 0.1.2 discovered 0.1.3 and installed it
unattended. 380 tests pass.
