Modules may be skipped for different reasons: SKIP_MODULES
is the traditional approach to suppress some, but other modules
may have unmet build requirements (e.g. Plasma Look-and-Feel,
or the Partitioning module) and should be able to opt-out
of being built. For all those skipped, log it explicitly after
all the modules have been examined.
Only CMake-based (e.g. C++) modules support opting-out in this way.
This is meant to run one or more jobs based on specific global
configuration values; if could also be done by a Python
module with just some if's, but this one can be used with
just the config file and covers a bunch of use-cases.
- calculate a hash of the filename, and use that
- makes it possible to distinguish different screenshots
even when the image file is missing / badly configured
- most colors will be dreadful
Patch by Gabriel C. (@abucodonosor).
- use libcalamares functions
- no need to copy /etc/adjtime over we can run hwclock in chroot
since we have /proc , /sys , /dev , /run/* already bind mounted.
- added RTC and ISA probing methode ( see issue #873)
- we probe default from /dev/rtc* ,
- fall back to ISA
- still doesn't work we just print a BIOS/Kernel BUG message and continue
- NOTE: issue #873 is about broken ArchLinux kernel config but there
are HP boxes with real RTC problems no matter what kernel config
is used so let us be nice and don't error out..
FIXES#873
- Implement various ways of getting the LNF; the process-based one
uses a recent CLI-tool from the Plasma developers.
- Fill the UI with (meaningless) LNF package IDs.
Do a better job determining what the arguments could mean; this supports
lazy devlopers who don't want to pass in full paths to all kinds of things.
Simple invocation can now be:
testmodule.py <modulename> - +
to read <modulename>.conf from src/modules/<modulename>/
This, kids, is why you don't switch writing C++ and Python too often.
The C++ code isn't a syntax error in Python, although this would fail
at runtime.
Update documentation, add a new key *skip_if_no_internet* to support
systems that **recommend** having an internet connection (but don't
require it), and which also use the packages module. This prevents
a long delay while the package manager tries to access the internet
and times out (repeatedly).
Existing configurations are unchanged.
Root is always selected, can't be unselected, and has its own explicit
constructor and name. This resolves issue reported where unchecking
all *visible* groups caused the root to be unchecked, after which
hidden-but-still-selected subgroups were not installed.

Following KDE Pholio M116, switch to using a radio button; instead
of 4 individually toggle-able settings, use a "level" indicator
to select none, install, machine, user .. each of which implies
the previous levels. Each level is individually enable-able from
the distro side.
If a subgroup is hidden, then it should be considered
selected if its parent is selected or partially-selected.
If the parent group is totally unselected, then the hidden
subgroup shouldn't be installed either. This allows putting
required-packages into a group, without cluttering the
interface.
FIXES#864
While walking up the tree, only switch the selectedness states
of parents with children. This avoids the case where a parent
has a first subgroup that is hidden -- in which case the
parent ends up with no children, and is unselected even though
it is marked as selected in the config file.

Each kind of tracking has an associated webpage / URL describing
the policy for that tracking. The Calamares User Guide has some
generic information. When the user clicks on the Help (?) button
in a tracking-option block, go to that URL.
- Enable translations, substitute ShortProductName into string,
- Simplify code for enabling tracking option blocks,
- Set checkboxes based on configuration,
- Read checkboxes when leaving page,
- Don't stretch the tracking option blocks.
