- depends: compression-inspect (not .Succeeded) — non-blocking
- dnf install skopeo alongside jq+openssh-clients
- SCP to VM evidence dir is non-fatal (|| true) since dir may not exist yet

Subject: [PATCH 2/6] fix: add python3 to dnf install in all templates that use
 it
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

quay.io/fedora/fedora:latest is minimal — python3 not pre-installed.
Add it unconditionally to every template that runs python3 - <<'PY'.
Also simplify all dnf install guards to always install (idempotent).

Subject: [PATCH 3/6] fix: restore missing export vars + python3 heredoc in
 collect-evidence

Previous edit accidentally deleted the export variable lines and the
python3 - <<'PY' heredoc opener, causing Python code to run as bash.
Restore the missing lines to properly invoke python3 with heredoc stdin.

Subject: [PATCH 4/6] fix: SSH run_remote quoting + collect-evidence always
 exits 0
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

- Remove 'bash -lc' wrapper from run_remote in all 3 Python templates.
  SSH passes all post-host args joined with spaces to remote shell, so
  multi-word commands break. Pass command directly as single SSH arg.
- collect-evidence: always sys.exit(0) — it collects evidence, does not
  gate. Only verify-state (separate template) should exit 1 on failure.

Subject: [PATCH 5/6] fix: make storage-prepare and verify-forward non-blocking
 gates

- storage-prepare: always exit 0 (experimental unified storage fails with
  no space left on device when disk is too small for second full pull)
- forward-switch: depends on 'storage-prepare' not '.Succeeded' so forward
  switch runs even when unified storage setup fails
- backward-switch: depends on 'verify-forward' not '.Succeeded' so the
  full round-trip (backward switch + verify-backward) still runs when
  verify-forward reports the expected group/gshadow mismatch from
  rechunker-group-fix being absent in current projectbluefin/bluefin:latest

Subject: [PATCH 6/6] fix(tests): start gnome-ponytail-daemon explicitly after
 GNOME Shell ready

D-Bus auto-activation of gnome-ponytail-daemon fails in the qecore-headless
Wayland session with 'ServiceUnknown: The name is not activatable'. The RPM
is installed via ostree admin unlock + dnf install, but the new session's
D-Bus daemon does not discover the service file on a fresh transient install.

Fix: start gnome-ponytail-daemon explicitly in run-suite.sh after
wait_for_shell.py confirms GNOME Shell is accessible, then sleep 2s for
D-Bus registration before behave begins.
