+* `noctalia` and `mangowc` come from **Terra**, and `hyprland` from the
+  **solopasha** COPR — all third-party sources. Their package layout is not
+  guaranteed across Fedora releases; `mango` aborts with build-from-source
+  instructions if the package is missing. Terra is added in the base section
+  (and re-checked idempotently inside the modules that need it).
 * Package *names* are not verified by installation in this repo's test harness —
   only control flow is. First real run on a fresh F44 box is the actual proof.
 * `gnome-tweaks`/`gnome-extensions-app`, `wofi`, `waybar`, `hyprlock` and friends
