- This is a half-step: the ViewStep shouldn't do job creation either,
eventually it needs to be the Config object, but this is better
than asking the widget (UI) to create some jobs.
- When updating login- or host-name, or the autologin setting,
set it in GS as well. This is a minor improvement over doing
it only when leaving the page.
- Since the Config object isn't complete, there are leftovers in
the widget, which has a fillGlobalStorage() for the not-jobs-related
bits previously in createJobs().
- since the configuration is in the UI parts, we need the widget still
to load the whole configuration (until the config object is complete).
Create the widget before doing configuration; this is wrong. But now
we don't hit nullptr derefs all over.
- make the HostName textbox just a view on the Config's HostName
- make the username and login textboxes view onto Config
- query the Config rather than the UI for job data
- delay construction of the Page (widget) until it's needed
- hand the Config object to the Page on construction
This is prep-work for putting the configuration information into the
Config object, rather than in the UI elements.
- most of the things in utils/ are in the CalamaresUtils namespace,
let Permissions follow suit. Chase the name change in the
*preservefiles* module.
- add an `apply()` function for doing the most basic of chmod.
Note that we don't use `QFile::setPermissions()` because the
**values** used are different (0755 for chmod is 0x755 in the
enum value passed to `setPermissions()`).
On the "Users" tab, the user can choose a username. It was possible to
use 'root' as username, which led to an installation error, because
'root' exists already.
Added a new check to the username validation.
Fixes#1462.
With PR calamares/calamares#1357 the label of the "Manual partitioning" option
was changed, which introduced several downsides:
* The label is shown for UEFI and for BIOS installations.
* The mountpoint of the ESP is and should be distro specific.
* The label always mentioned GPT, which is irrelevant.
* The label should explain, what the option does, and not, what
problems can occur under certain circumstances.
set index in i18n.qml to -1, old settings were just for reading from the bogus model
current model uses strings, so index fails to read from it. This fixes cala crashing on loading i18n.qml
- already had methods for various kinds of broken-up data, but
not one for plain "region/zone" strings; having this makes
it easier for QML to report a zone.
- use the region/zone method from QML, so that clicking on the
world map updates the actual TZ in Config.
- get network status from the global Network object; document that
- get the strings describing the language and LC settings from
the config-object instead of roll-our-own
- use the model of supported locales from Config to populate listboxes
- connect selection of language or LC to the Config object
- remove stray and useless TODOs
- remove unnecessary empty overrides
- clean up includes
- drop all the code that is now in Config
Since the business logic (setting locations, maintaining GS, ...)
is all in the Config object, the ViewStep is remarkably simple:
hook up a UI to the Config, which in the case of QML is done
automatically.
- since the Page hooked up a model and changed the region-selection
**after** connecting to signals, it would reset the location
to Africa/Abijan (alphabetically the first timezone) during
construction. Don't do that.
