feat: i18n moonarch-update via pacman gettext + inline DE
Update PKGBUILD version / update-pkgver (push) Successful in 2s
Details

Browse Source 
Prompts and log lines now follow the user's LANG. Reuses pacman's
gettext catalog for strings with matching upstream msgids
(Proceed with installation?, [Y/n], Starting full system upgrade...,
Do you want to remove these packages?). Moonarch-specific strings
go through an inline _t "en" "de" helper keyed off ${LANG%%.*}.

confirm() switches to pacman-style: :: prefix, default Y, accepts
y/Y/j/J. No PKGBUILD change — gettext ships with base.

# Decisions
## 2026-04-19 – moonup i18n: reuse pacman gettext catalog + inline fallback
- **Who**: Dominik, ClaudeCode
- **Why**: moonup prompts looked foreign next to pacman/paru output (`[y/N]` vs `[J/n]`, English strings on a German system). User wanted consistency with the rest of the pacman UX.
- **Tradeoffs**: Full `.po`/`.mo` build-chain for moonarch was overkill for ~15 strings. gettext-only approach misses most moonarch-specific strings (no matching msgids in pacman catalog). Chose hybrid: `TEXTDOMAIN=pacman` for strings that match upstream msgids (prompts like `Proceed with installation?`, `Do you want to remove these packages?`, `[Y/n]`, `Starting full system upgrade...`), inline `_t()` helper for moonarch-specific strings.
- **How**: `moonarch-update` sets `TEXTDOMAIN=pacman`/`TEXTDOMAINDIR=/usr/share/locale`. `_t "en" "de"` picks by `${LANG%%.*}` matching `de_*`. `confirm()` now uses `::` prefix, default Y, accepts `y/Y/j/J`. No PKGBUILD change — `gettext` is in `base`. pacman msgids with trailing `\n` (e.g. `Starting full system upgrade...\n`) require ANSI-C quoting `$'...\n'` to match.
## 2026-04-08 – Battery conservation mode: udev + sysfs + Waybar toggle
- **Who**: Dominik, ClaudeCode
- **Why**: Laptops with `charge_control_end_threshold` support benefit from limiting charge to 80% to extend battery lifespan. Needed a user-friendly toggle without requiring sudo.
