- If there is an item with id "" (empty), it is used as the
"no-package-selected" placeholder text.
- Existing code iterated over the abstract model and used the
name and description at the time the model was set -- but
by getting the name and description from the model, only
a single string was obtained instead of the full range
of translations.
- Therefore, when arriving on the page, the "no-package-selected"
information was displayed from the translation that was active
when the model was set.
Instead, extend the non-abstract model so we can find the no-package-
selected item and pass that explicitly to the page.
FIXES#1241
- Since the package chooser might be used more than once, or for
more specific items than "Packages", introduce a way to provide
specific strings for display.
- The only string needed is the ViewStep name, since the item with
id "" can be used for the no-selection item.
- This helps give meaningful names to code chunks
- Gives clang-format something to work with
- Reduces indentation depth
I think this is a bit of a code-style opinion issue: big complicated
lambdas doing UI things just don't seem like a good idea.
- hangs unpredictably during testing
- replace with the Calamares process-invocation runCommand(), which is also
synchronous but doesn't hang (or, hasn't, in testing so far)
If we don't have/need an image for the rootfs, we might want to
configure the `/` directory as a source for unpackfs. Unfortunately,
this raises an error:
- unpackfs first creates a temporary directory
- it then creates a subdirectory for each source, using the source
path's basename
- when the source is `/`, the basename is an empty string, therefore
the module tries to create an already existing directory
In order to prevent this error, we use the `os.makedirs` function with
parameter `exist_ok=True` instead of `os.mkdir`.

- AppData and AppStream can be disabled independently of finding
their requirements (possibly useful if you want to ignore
AppStream even when it's installed in your build environment).
- Add a little top-level documentation about WITH_
- These don't have to be static methods of PackageItem, a free
function is more convenient.
- Since it's not API of PackageItem anymore, need to
- update tests not to use API
- do API-not-available warnings in consumers
