This is the changelog for Calamares. For each release, the major changes and
|
|
contributors are listed. Note that Calamares does not have a historical
|
|
changelog -- this log starts with version 3.3.0. See CHANGES-3.2 for
|
|
the history of the 3.2 series (2018-05 - 2021-12).
|
|
|
|
# 3.3.0 (unreleased) #
|
|
|
|
This release contains contributions from (alphabetically by first name):
|
|
- Anubhav Choudhary
|
|
- Evan James
|
|
- Vitor Lopes
|
|
|
|
This is a "minor" version change, but the size of the changes is very
|
|
large. Configuration files from previous versions of Calamares will
|
|
**certainly** need to be re-validated. Take heed of the many changes
|
|
in the *Modules* heading, below.
|
|
|
|
Users (distributions) are **strongly** advised to use the tools
|
|
for configuration validation (`ci/configvalidator.py`) to check
|
|
that the distribution configuration files follow the current schema.
|
|
|
|
## Project ##
|
|
- The C++ code in the project is now formatted with clang-format 12 or 13,
|
|
with the coding-style as found in `.clang-format`; there are minor
|
|
differences from the tool, compared to the clang-format 9 usually applied
|
|
to Calamares 3.2.
|
|
- The CMake code in the project is now formatted with gersemi 0.7.5.
|
|
|
|
## Core ##
|
|
- CMake 3.16, Qt 5.15 are now required; the newer CMake is to support
|
|
new features (also for KDE Frameworks), Qt is the current LTS version.
|
|
- KDE Framework "DBusAddons" is now required, and is used to "activate"
|
|
Calamares; the KDAB Single Application Guard is no longer used.
|
|
KDSAG needed patching to chase Qt 5.15 deprecations, and the DBus
|
|
activation code is tried and tested in Frameworks (tier 1).
|
|
Running `calamares -d` no longer enforces a single-application
|
|
(it is for debugging purposes, after all).
|
|
- Python 3.6 or later is now required, to allow for F-strings in
|
|
Python code and allow other tidy-ups in the Python modules.
|
|
Boost::Python now requires 1.67 or later (for CMake support).
|
|
- The log file now **always** contains a debug-log, and the `-D` flag
|
|
primarily controls what is printed to stdout. By default, stdout
|
|
only gets errors; use `-D6` to match stdout with the file. Use `-D8`
|
|
to get a verbose log file **and** verbose stdout.
|
|
|
|
## Modules ##
|
|
- *bootloader* now supports more options when building the kernel
|
|
command-line. (Thanks Evan)
|
|
- *displaymanager* no longer supports the discontinued *kdm* display manager.
|
|
- *fstab* configuration has been completely re-done. Many configuration
|
|
options have moved to the *mount* module. See #1993
|
|
- *grubcfg* changed the key *keepDistributor* to *keep_distributor*.
|
|
Please update configurations.
|
|
- *mount* now does most of the mounting; options that were in *fstab*
|
|
have moved here. See #1993
|
|
- *partition* requires KPMCore 21.12 (e.g. KPMCore 4.2 API, or later).
|
|
- *partition* can now skip installing the bootloader in more scenarios.
|
|
#1632 (Thanks Anubhav)
