The code path for setting the locale / language automatically
emits currentLanguageStatusChanged(), but the code that updates
GS connects to currentLanguageCodeChaged(). This was altered in
the 3.2.28 release cycle. Since then, automcatic locale selection
wasn't setting *locale* in GS, so that a click-through kind of
locale selection would not set it; then the packages module
has no *locale* setting for localization packages.
The combination of status and code signals (machine- and human-
readable) is ok. Introduce a setter to the language that does
the necessary signalling, so that setting the language automatically
also DTRT.

- Move variables closer to where they are needed
- Do the winnowing / selection always, but in unsafe mode return
the un-winnowed list of devices
- Massage build documentation a little
When loading the lists, no initial string-value was being
set for the model, layout and variant; the configuration
could pass right through and pick up empty strings instead.
If the user does not change the model, the UI would show
"pc105" but the internal setting would still be empty.
FIXES#1668
The machinery in `setConfigurationMap()` was just duplicating
checks already in place in the `getString()` and `getBool()`
methods, and there's no special need for efficiency here,
so prefer the more readable and short code.
("efficiency" here means "we're saving one method call in
case the configuration is not set")
In 4ffa79d4cf, the spelling
was changed to consistently be "autoLoginUser" in the *users*
module, but that changed the Global Storage key as well,
and the *displaymanager* module wasn't changed to follow.
You'll need a VM with 2 disks to demonstrate:
- Configure Calamares to pick "none" as initial action on
the partition page (this is a safe choice),
- Enter partition page,
- No action is selected, and the next> button is greyed out.
- Click erase; notice next> is now available.
- Change devices, notice no action is selected, but next>
is still available. Clicking on it, though, does nothing.
When changing to "no action", update the next-button's
availability.
Avoid the extra indirection through the otherwise-unused
prettyGptType(const QString&), construct table of names
only on first call to avoid static-initialization order
(though that's not important here).

In particular, we need a separate Job class to set the label; this
is invoked after we formatted a partition, and when no other changes
to the partition have been requested in the Edit dialog.
The partition- and filesystem-label setting code was already there,
but not in the call to createNewPartition(); now we set the
FS label twice (once in the call, once afterwards)
When creating or editing a new formatted partition, allow
to set a filesystem label (16 chars maximum). Modify
the KPMHelpers to accept it as a new parameter. Partitions
created by default may get a meaningful label too.
The skip-checking is now in the functions for adding plugins and
subdirectories, so that third-party building should get it
as well, for free. Since AddModuleSubdirectory and AddPlugin
use the newly split-out module, handling SKIP_MODULES and USE_*
consistently across module repositories is now easier.
While here, make accumulating-the-skipped-modules explicit.
- use load() to start loading
- the FetchNextUnless class is useful in more spots in
the loading process
- set status explicitly on success (otherwise, a failure in a
previous URL would leave a failure message lying around even
when the module shows something useful)
- m_queue was not initialized to nullptr, crashes
- split queue-is-done to a separate slot rather than a lambda
- prefer queueing calls to fetchNext(), for responsiveness
Require a ; after RETRANSLATE macros. They are statement-like;
this makes it easier for some of them to be recognized by
clang-format and resolves some existing weird formatting.
Now all the business logic is in Config, the door is open to
building a QML-ified netinstall module. I'm not sure that
would be worth it: packagechooser offers more space for a
nice UI and should be QML'ed first.
There was a mix of autologin and autoLogin, leading to confusion
in the code. QML is sensitive to this, so go to one consistent name.
(Although the names of the settings in the `.conf` file are
different again)
Although the example configurations shouldn't really be used
as a sample of how to configure **your** Calamares for your
distro, many distro's do just copy the examples. So leave
traces of the OEM-configuration settings in the example,
and give the standard configuration a 'nothing changed'
set of presets.
- you can still call set*(), eg. from the UI, when the field is
not editable. Although the code previously ignored the change,
this would lead to a mismatch between what the UI is showing
(the changed value) and what the Config has (old value).
Emit a changed-signal (notify) with the old value so that the
UI is changed *back* as soon as possible.
- warn about fields applied twice (program error)
- warn about fields not used (configuration error)
- add operator<< for "clean" looking preset application
Build up the list of known presets by what the Config-object
expects, not by what the Config file provides. This allows
early detection of mis-matched configurations.
Presets can only apply to Q_PROPERTY properties, and the
preset must match the property name.
It's possible to ignore the "user setting" for restart-now
and call doRestart(true) directly. This is intended for
use with specific UIs that make that choice clear for the user.
Hook up both [finished] and [finishedq] to the "traditional"
restart-if-the-box-is-ticked logic although the example
QML doesn't expose that box.
module builds & runs, config connections are not registering
no errors
finishedq.qml is offering a different option though, running commands directly in qml
plasma-framework executer is used for that
- move most of the business logic to Config
- make retranslate of the page more robust (e.g. changing language
after failure would restore the un-failed message)
There's still some bits left.
- the configuration is still duplicated in the widget, and
functionality still needs to move to the Config object
- the ViewStep is cut down to almost nothing
- the host system's /etc/group is being read, and that varies between
host OS versions; since I was doing today's release on KaOS, the
test was failing because of arbitrary differences between the
default groups on each Linux flavor.
FIXES#1604
(Admittedly, this fixes the problem only when there's Plasma Solid automount
present, and not any of the other kinds; but none of those have been reported
yet, and adding them into AutoMount.cpp is opaque to the rest of the
system)
- It shouldn't be necessary to explicitly .get() pointers for
logging, and it's convenient to know when a pointer is smart.
* no annotation means raw (e.g. @0x0)
* S means shared
* U means unique
- switch logging in job to VERBOSE because we don't want to be printing
pointers to the regular session log
- switch logging in test to VERBOSE to actually see the messages from the Job
- hook the test into the build
- Although unique_ptr is only used when ICU is enabled, include it
always because it is likely that we'll use more unique_ptr
in the implementation at some point.
Ever since signed shim binaries for multiple architectures became
available, the shim binaries installed in Linux distributions have
been renamed to include the EFI architecture in the binary names.
This started in Fedora, but is now used in openSUSE and Ubuntu too.
Reference for shim binary names comes from shim spec in Fedora:
d8c3c8e392/f/shim.spec (_23-32)
The QLatin1String() might be replaced by char[], that trades one
initialization for two but with a simpler data section; this
probably is not worth profiling.
With Qt 5.15.2 (and clang), `k->first` works, but this breaks
with Qt 5.11 (and gcc), this is not available and the dereference
must be written differently, `(*k).first`.
- This kind of runs around the selection model on the view,
but we're drawing radio buttons ourselves **anyway**
and the list of themes knows which is selected / current
independent of the view.
- make ThemeInfo and ThemeInfoList internal, expose only
ThemesModel to the rest of the PlasmaLnF module
- don't build the widget anymore (needs to be replaced by
a delegate)
- also individual changes need to be signalled
- use QSignalBlocker to avoid spamming changes when calling
aggregate change methods
- refactor findById() so that also a row number can be
obtained, which is needed for the change signals.
- put a filter model in place, so only the themes with "show" set
are displayed
- rip out the messing about with widgets, soon to introduce a model-
based UI
This is the bugfix part (rather than the "clean up this widgets mess")
of issue-1573, ensuring that the LookAndFeelPackage setting is
saved to the target system config file.
- Need to update the variant that is in use, **and**
explicitly update it in the widget, in order to re-load
the keyboard image for the newly-selected layout+variant.
The lookandfeeltool does not (always?) write the LookAndFeelPackage
key that the KCM does -- and which this module reads on startup
to find the default LnF. This seems to be a regression in recent
lookandfeeltool versions (or in the KCM code that backs it).
Workaround supplied by jghodd.
Fixes#1573
The module preserves the extended attributes at rsync and the overlay
filesystem stores extended attributes by inodes.
The overlay filesystem keeps traces of the lower directory by encoding
and storing its UUID to the attribute trusted.overlay.origin. If the
index feature is on, that attribute is compared to the UUID of the lower
directory at every subsequent mounts and causes mount to fail with
ESTATE if it does not match.
This filters the namespace trusted.overlay.* by using the rsync option
--filter='-x trusted.overlay.*' to make sure the overlays extended
attributes are not preserved.
Fixes:
# mount -t overlay -o lowerdir=...,upperdir,...,workdir= overlay /mnt/etc
mount: /var/mnt/etc: mount(2) system call failed: Stale file handle.
# dmesg
(...)
overlayfs: "xino" feature enabled using 32 upper inode bits.
overlayfs: failed to verify origin (/etc, ino=524292, err=-116)
overlayfs: failed to verify upper root origin
Previously, the auxerror information was never stored, and
the messages were all un-numbered or un-explained.
Now, consume that information and store it when check()
is called, ready to be used when (possibly much later,
or after a translation change) explanation() is called.
Mount guesses the filesystem if it is unset or if it is set to auto,
thanks to blkid. That is the case for the bind mountpoints like /dev or
/run/udev in mount.conf. See `mount(8)` for more details.
The drop-down of zones was initially unfiltered, so you could start
in Europe/Amsterdam and the zones drop-down would also show Australian
zones; picking Perth would have weird effects, since Europe/Perth
doesn't exist and so you'd end up in New York instead.
- set the filtering region immediately, rather than only when the
region changes.
Various file writes were not being checked, and the code
was a bit tangled; specifically keyboardq did **not**
configure properly on KaOS and now seems ok.
The root mount-point can end with a / while the mount-point read from
the file /etc/mtab does not end with a /.
This leads to skip the unmounting of the root mount-point and causes the
removal of the root mountpoint directory to fail with EBUSY because it
is still mounted.
This uses the python functions os.path.normpath() to normalize the root
mount-point (i.e. to drop the trailing /) and os.path.commonprefix() to
determine the longest common prefix between the two mount-points. If the
returned prefix is identical to the normalized root mount-point then the
mount-point must be added to the list of the mount-points to unmount.
More generally, the python modules should rely on the os.path functions
to compare for paths instead of using strings. It covers this way lots
of corner cases (path with "//", "/../", "/./", ...).
- put the writing of each kind of file in its own block -- this should
become separate functions -- so that variables become more local
and debugging can be improved.
- while here, fix the error message for /etc/default/keyboard:
it would complain and name the vconsole file path if it ever failed.
- factor out the flags-we-want from the flags-we-already-have
- the use of ->activeFlags() meant that the state on *disk* was
being compared with the flags-we-want; if a partition was re-edited,
then you couldn't change the flags back to the state-on-disk
(eg. enable a flag, then change your mind and disable it).
- set the flags before refreshing the partition, because the
refresh checks for EFI bootability and that needs the new flags,
not the old ones.
- remove the m_defaultFSType from PartitionLayout, because it is
set on construction -- which is too early, before the configuration
has been read.
- make the default FS explicit in the init() calls which pass in
a configuration; this needs support in the intermediate
PartitionCoreModule.
- the "simple" constructor for PartitionEntry left the FS type
set as the constructor left it -- which is Unknown by default.
This leads to install failures in systems that don't set a
special layout but just want a single / -- because the FS is
set to Unknown.
- massage the constructor and consumer of the code, push
Ext4 FS in the tests and use the configured default in production.
The return of the call to libcalamares.utils.mount is never tested and
it may fail silently; this causes some mounpoints to be missing.
This adds a warning if mountpoint cannot be mounted.
