Calamares running as root is not always conducive to successfully communicating with the fd.o PowerManagement interface on the user session bus. The login manager interface has long provided a similarly capable sleep inhibition functionality, which at this point would be present on the vast majority of distributions. Use it if systemd-logind or ConsoleKit2 have registered this service on the system bus. Regardless of running as root or user, Calamares shouldn't have an issue contacting this interface. Fixes #2384 |

Calamares: Distribution-Independent Installer Framework
| Report a Bug | Translate | Contribute | Chat on Matrix: #calamares:kde.org | Wiki |
|---|
Calamares is a distribution-independent system installer, with an advanced partitioning feature for both manual and automated partitioning operations. Calamares is designed to be customizable by distribution maintainers without the need for cumbersome patching, thanks to third-party branding and external modules support.
Target Audience
Calamares is a Linux installer; users who install Linux on a computer will hopefully use it just once, to install their Linux distribution. Calamares is not a "ready to use" application: distributions apply a huge amount of customization and configuration to Calamares, and the target audience for this repository is those distributions, and the people who make those Linux distros.
Calamares has some generic user documentation for end-users, but most of what we have is for distro developers.
Getting Calamares
Clone Calamares from GitHub. The default branch is called calamares.
git clone https://github.com/calamares/calamares.git
Calamares is a KDE-Frameworks and Qt-based, C++17, CMake-built application. The dependencies are explained in CONTRIBUTING.md.
Contributing to Calamares
Calamares welcomes PRs. New issues are welcome, too. There are both the Calamares core repository (this one) and an extensions repository (Calamares extensions).
Contributions to code, modules, documentation, the wiki, and the website are all welcome. There is more information in the CONTRIBUTING.md file.

GitHub Issues are one place for discussing Calamares if there are concrete problems or a new feature to discuss. Issues are not a help channel. Visit Matrix for help with configuration or compilation.
Regular Calamares development chit-chat happens in a Matrix
room, #calamares:kde.org. Responsiveness is best during the day
in Europe, but feel free to idle.
Matrix is persistent, and we'll see your message eventually.
