Install fingerprintd from the registry, so the image unlocks with a finger
Some checks failed
image / image (push) Failing after 57m23s

The daemon's own package CI publishes it to the registry the same way imsd's
does, so the image takes it from there: the exact apk a user later gets via
apk upgrade, sha256-pinned, re-signed for the chroot. Section 3b now fetches
both sets, and every fetched file must have a pin -- the check used to be
`grep . | sha256sum -c`, which an empty pin list would have sailed through
with nothing checked.

Three apks: the daemon, its systemd units, and the session agent, which does
nothing until a user writes ~/.config/fingerprintd/fingers.conf. The daemon
needs the kernel aport's CONFIG_QCOMTEE=m (pkgrel 101) and fp6-vendor-blobs
1-r2's mbn directive to reassemble the trustlet, both built in this run;
0.2.3 says >=1-r2 so a mismatched pair is refused rather than installed.

The CI publish step skips fingerprintd-* like imsd-*: registry-sourced, not
ours to republish. README: fingerprint in the list, and the two things a user
will otherwise report as a dead sensor -- the lock screen listens for 60
seconds after it appears, and a held press is what the matcher was measured
on -- plus the untested question of stock Android's own fingerprints after
using this.

Verified on the dev phone (fp6 repo journal/fingerprint/, 2026-09-05): the
registry 0.2.2 package enrols through Plasma's Users page and unlocks the
lock screen; 0.2.3 differs by the dependency and a post-upgrade restart. The
image build itself, with the fprintd purge inside the chroot, runs first in
CI.

## Fingerprint
Enrol under **Settings → Users** (Plasma's own fingerprint page; the `fprintd`
command-line tools are not installed, fingerprintd replaces that package).
**Hold** the finger on the sensor for each of the ~20 presses rather than
tapping it; a held press is what the matcher was measured on.
Two things to know:
- The lock screen listens for a finger for **60 seconds after it appears**.
A press after that reaches nothing and looks like a dead sensor. Lock and
unlock again to re-arm it.
- The matcher is the phone's own proprietary trustlet, reassembled from the
stock modem partition on first boot and never shipped by us. Templates are
stored on the Android `persist` partition, sealed to the same hardware
anti-rollback counter stock Android uses. Whether fingerprints enrolled under
stock Android survive a return to it after using this has **not** been
tested.
A finger can also run something in your session on a match
(`~/.config/fingerprintd/fingers.conf`, see the fingerprintd README).
