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.
