- the explanations under and around the boxes is noisy,
hard to size correctly (viz. issue #1202)
- use tooltips in almost-all fields instead
- add placeholder text to be more suggestive
- since the wording of the checkbox itself (and the functionality)
is to enforce strong passwords, need to switch out some
logic and fix the wording of the documentation.
- This small header file contained a few unrelated typedefs.
Move those typedefs to the classes they relate to. This
**does** mean that some consumers need to #include something
else instead.
- Use type names more consistently.
Editorial: why are **pages** responsible for creating the jobs?
- The only remaining functions in the file are string-related, so
rename to match their purpose.
- Drop this include file from most places, since they don't actually
use the string functionality at all.
- These methods are used for multi-page view-steps, which are rare.
For all the others, just drop the empty implementation and defer
to the base class.
- Make the explanations about 3 times as wide as the text-boxes
that they are explaining. This is partly moot because the
text-boxes have fixed pixel sizes in the designer file, but keep
it flexible for now.
- Add a *userShell* key, which can be left out (default, backwards-
compatible) to retain the old /bin/bash behavior, or explicitly
set to empty to defer to useradd-configuration, or explicitly
set to something non-empty to use that shell.
- This is prep-work for #964, which was caused by #955
- Original assumption was that distro's would have a working
useradd configuration; @abucodonosor already pointed out that
this was probably not the case, but I ignored that.
These additional pointers were introduced for translations,
and needed their own tricks to get lupdate to recognize the
strings. Using QCoreApplication::translate() removes the
need to a QObject to provide context. Drop the now-unneeded
parameters.
Instead of using tr and some macro hacks to get lupdate to
recognize the translation, instead use QCoreApplication::translate()
which takes its own context for translation.
- add license file from libpwquality for provenance
- translate pwquality_strerror() into the PWSettingsHolder convenience class
- use Qt translations, since we'd otherwise also have to wire up, and
wire in, libpwquality gettext translations.
- Use shared_ptr and a helper class to hide away raw pointer use
from libpwquality. Provide a convenience C++ API.
- Simplify configuration through helper class.
- Warn here since it may not be what the Distributor want.
Having wrong groups may result in broken permissions for
created user.
- explain what defaultGroups is for in users.conf
- Introduce a map 'passwordRequirements' in users.conf,
which is a list of named requirements. There are only
two settings right now, min and max length, but
additional checks can easily be added in UsersPage.cpp
by defining additional lambda's to check the given
password string.
- Add PasswordCheck instances as needed, with functions
to check acceptability and to produce messages on rejection.
- Documentation in the users.conf file itself.
- In passing, refactor setting of pixmaps on labels.
FIXES#790
There is no need to force folks haing a random group
bc that is a Distro think. SDDM/GDM works just fine without
having a group for the user to autologin.
Just setup a group in users.conf .. is why we have a configuration
option for that.
The hostname madagascarsteenplaatschildpad (.uva.nl) doesn't fit in 24,
and hostname(1) accepts up to 64 characters. The RFCs vary, but 63 +
terminating NUL or length-octet + data maximum 64 bytes seen to be
the common ground.
FIXES#514
Pass the full name directly to useradd instead, using the "-c" (comment)
parameter, which is "currently used as the field for the user's full
name" according to the documentation.
The chfn utility is no longer installed by default on current Fedora
releases due to its dependency on libuser. (They split out chfn and chsh
from util-linux into an optional subpackage.) It could be added as a
dependency of Calamares, but since it is needed inside the chroot, it
has to be on the base live image, not the overlay. Thus, to allow
testing Calamares with a simple "dnf install calamares" again, the
dependency needs to go away. And it is unnecessary anyway.
Fixes CAL-345.
Changing group of home dir to the default "users" group might be a security risk
because every user which belongs to the default "users" group
might be able to access private data on home dirs of other users.
This also adds ImageRegistry, a SVG cache, a bunch of utility functions
for shared pixmaps in CalamaresUtilsGui and renames several qrc files
in viewmodules.
Module descriptors are now module.desc, no configuration allowed inside.
Module config files are <modulename>.conf, installed in
share/calamares/modules.
settings.conf is read from /etc/calamares, then share/calamares, and if
running with --debug also in the current dir.
Module config files are read from /etc/calamares/modules, then
share/calamares/modules, and if running with --debug also in
src/modules/<modulename> relative to the current dir.
