#!/usr/bin/env bash
# lib/services_hosts.sh — the /etc/hosts blocking stack check: the hosts file
# itself, its immutable attribute, the three guard-lib file-guard instances
# (hosts/nsswitch/resolved), the pacman unlock/relock hooks, and the
# systemd-resolved settings that can silently bypass /etc/hosts.
#
# Sourced by check_and_enable_services.sh. The repair half lives in
# services_hosts_fix.sh so both files stay under the 250-line cap.

# Absolute paths the checks below probe are prefixed with $SYSROOT, which is
# empty in production and a fixture tree under test. It is deliberately NOT
# defaulted here: several repairs in this family write outside `run` (chattr,
# find -delete, an append to resolved.conf), so a test that forgot to set it
# would edit the real /etc. Unset is a hard error; empty is the real filesystem.
