wkhtmltopdf 0.12.6.1-3 no longer ships a fedora-* RPM (my URL 404'd).
The AlmaLinux 9 (EL9) RPM is compatible with Fedora — tested on the
Fedora 42 VM: "dnf install <almalinux9 rpm>" resolves the deps and
"wkhtmltopdf --version" reports 0.12.6.1 (with patched qt). Use it, with
an AlmaLinux 8 fallback.

Tested make install_os on a real Fedora 42 VM (exit 0: gcc 15, psql,
node 22 installed). Two fixes from the run:
- postgresql-setup --initdb failed with "invalid locale settings"
because Fedora cloud images ship no LANG; force a valid locale via
PGSETUP_INITDB_OPTIONS=--locale=C.UTF-8 and wipe a partial data dir
first (a failed init leaves /var/lib/pgsql/data/log behind and blocks
the retry). Verified: cluster PG 16 initialised, service active,
erplibre superuser created.
- the dev-tools group was referenced by display name ("C Development
Tools and Libraries", "No match"); use the group id c-development.

From the QEMU install logs: Debian 12 succeeded, Ubuntu 24.04 and
Fedora 42 failed.
Ubuntu (install_debian_dependency.sh):
- apt failed with "Could not get lock" (cloud-init/unattended-upgrades
hold it on first boot) -> all apt-get calls now use
DPkg::Lock::Timeout=600 so apt waits for the lock.
- "postgis" is not a package on Ubuntu 24.04, so the postgresql line
exited 1 before installing build-essential -> no C compiler -> pyenv
could not build Python 3.12.10. PostGIS is now best-effort (tries
postgis, then postgresql-postgis) and never aborts; postgresql-contrib
is added.
Fedora (new install_fedora_dependency.sh, wired into install_dev.sh):
- install_dev.sh dispatched Fedora to the apt script; it now has a
fedora / ID_LIKE branch calling a dnf-based dependency installer
(dev tools, postgresql-server + initdb, pyenv build deps, node, etc.),
using --refresh --skip-unavailable to tolerate mirror/name issues.
Bootstrap (todo.py): the dnf "curl git make" install hit a GPG/checksum
failure on a fresh image; it now uses --refresh and retries after
"dnf clean all".
