Note, this shouldn't be merged until the corresponding changes to secureblue at secureblue/secureblue#2169 have also been reviewed and are ready to merge. |
Make the Homebrew installation owned by a dedicated `linuxbrew` user, created by systemd-sysusers. This creates a security boundary between the Homebrew installation and other unprivileged users.
This should improve efficiency by reducing unnecesary calls to `brew`, especially when brew-proxy is in use.
