The method creates a map called "branding" in the global storage, and
inserts an entry for each of the branding strings. This makes the
branding information accessible to the Python modules.
The method is called by CalamaresApplication::initJobQueue.
This is necessary because the Branding class is in libcalamaresui, so
Python modules cannot access it directly.
/etc/locale.conf should always be written before generating the
initramfs, because it will be added to the initramfs. So move the step
up to where the other locale-related jobs run.
Also add commented-out placeholders for the displaymanager and dracut
jobs so people will get the ordering right.
Point the lib/calamares/libcalamares.so symlink for the Python modules
directly to the versioned lib/libcalamares.so.VERSION library rather
than to the lib/libcalamares.so symlink. This allows distributions to
install the lib/libcalamares.so symlink to a development package and
only ship lib/libcalamares.so.VERSION and lib/calamares/libcalamares.so
in the runtime package. It is also marginally faster (because only one
level of symlinks has to be resolved instead of two).
(I know this works because I have been manually fixing up this symlink
in the Fedora specfile so far.)
locale hardcoded to en_US until local globalstorage is available
run pep8 on bootloader main.py, plain switch from subprocess to chroot_call fails for gummiboot call
add hibernate option to .conf
create a fallback entry in gummiboot menu
re-add firmware to globalstorage, simplifies this module, will be needed to add more OS to gummi
This is implemented as a new SetKeyboardLayout job that does the work.
Portions of the code are adapted from systemd-localed's source code,
which is under a compatible license (LGPLv2.1+, can be converted to our
GPLv3+ license). I ported it from C to to C++/Qt and made some minor
tweaks to the mapping logic (from X11 to vconsole layouts) though.
Fixes#31.
Tested on a Fedora Remix (Kannolo 21) with the default module settings
(finds the converted X11 keymaps for the virtual console) and with
convertedKeymapPath: "" (does the legacy keymap conversion as expected).
