- do not link (explicitly) to Calamares libraries, the CMake
functions do that automatically.
- while here, tidy and remove commented-out-bits
- while here, remove unneeded includes
Rip out most of the ViewStep that deals with configuration,
move it to a Config object (not one that supports QML yet,
though), and massage the model a little.
- point to main Calamares site in the 'part of' headers instead
of to github (this is the "this file is part of Calamares"
opening line for most files).
- remove boilerplate from all source files, CMake modules and completions,
this is the 3-paragraph summary of the GPL-3.0-or-later, which has
a meaning entirely covered by the SPDX tag.
The build instructions are not that interesting, it's a toss-up
between CC0 and BSD-2, but because other CMake bits are BSD-2-Clause,
apply that to more CMakeLists. The copyright date isn't all that
accurate, but these are just inconsequential files.
While here, tidy up and get rid of some useless intermediates.
- 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_
- Use *appstream* as key in one of the items for the package-
chooser to load data from the AppStream cache in the system.
- Usable for some applications; for DE-selection not so much.
- Currently unimplemented.
- Put the implementation entirely in a separate file, keep the
not-supported one in PackageModel.cpp (but only in an #ifdef).
- Makes the various optional-data-sources more similar.
- Doing a manual read of the XML, since existing appdata libraries
don't seem to have a convenient entry for what I need.
- Expand tests to loading AppData (currently, they fail).
Package chooser is a **low density** package selector -- unlike
netinstall which offers a high density tree view -- for picking
zero, one, or more items from a small collection of packages.
This can be used, e.g., for "pick exactly one desktop environment",
"pick zero or more text editors" which can then be installed
by another module. The UI is big and shiny (rather than netinstall's
text-based tree view) and isn't suitable for more than a dozen or
so items.
