- This enables working in three modes:
- No themes listed; all are shown without screenshots,
- Themes listed, showAll false; only those are shown,
- Themes listed, showAll true; the installed-but-not-listed
themes are shown after the listed ones, and have limited info.
- Although it's not necessarily accurate for an extensively-modified
Plasma configuration, we can read the Look-and-Feel from the
configuration files. Allows auto-detection.
- For OEM modes where there is already a theme, add a preselect:
key to pick a specific theme and have that one come up as already-
selected in the list.
- Don't re-run the lnftool if an already-selected theme is clicked
again. Use toggled() instead of clicked().
- Don't bother with the address of the main thread
- Do put a marker on restart into the log file
- Do put the Calamares version into the log file (previously, the version
was printed through cDebug() before the log file was opened, so it was
lost to the on-disk log).
Documentation lives both in Calamares and in the calamares-branding
repo. Whether a slideshow has navigation arrows or not is up to the
slideshow / branding component author, but Calamares now ships some
support QML to make that easy.

It is the distro's responsibility to produce screenshots that look
good; previously I chose to preserve the aspect ratio on the grounds
that this would keep the look of the screenshot even if the distro
had done one in a weird size. This makes the screenshot part
of the LNF selection look weird, though, since then you get
blank parts.
Switch to ignoring the aspect ration; distro's should produce
screenshots in a 12x8 (i.e. 3:2) aspect ratio, preferrably at
least 120x80 pixels -- but keep in mind hiDPI and the default
font sizes of the distro, which may make other sizes look better.
(this follows discussion with BlueStar Linux)
- Auto-advance the default presentation
- Add more example slides to the fancy presentation
- Expand README.md explaining what the default classes can do
Removed these features that make sense in a presentation slideshow
(e.g. during a talk) but that are potentially confusing during
a passive slideshow like Calamares has:
- Using 'c' blanks the slideshow.
- Entering a slide number + enter changes slides.
- Add a NavButton, which shows a directional arrow, and fades in on hover.
It can be used left- or right- by setting an image source
and click handler.
- Specialize NavButton to Forward and BackButton.
- Add a SlideCounter navigation aid.
the original code does not distinguish the document comments inside the locale.gen file from the real locale list. The language was then enabled from the header comments of the file instead of the correct value in the list.
The new code verify tha the complete locale string is just after the first character of the string, enablig only the correct value of the locale list.
An example:
# en_US.UTF-8 UTF-8 --> document header, should not be enabled
#en_US.UTF-8 UTF-8 --> correct section to enable

The install-bits branch commit 83639b182b
dropped .so-versioning for libcalamares and the creation of the Python-
support symlink. This broke KDE Neon dev-unstable because the embedded
Python can no longer find libcalamares.
Installing unversioned .so's straight to LIBDIR is also not a good thing
(according to Debian), so revert to the original scheme with versioned
.so and a Python-support symlink.
Medium-term fix is to install unversioned straight into LIBDIR/calamares
and fix up the RPATH for the executable.
- Applies to libcalamares and libcalamaresui.so, install with no
version, just the bare .so. Since Calamares doesn't do versioning
anyway, and its plugins should be re-compiled for any change,
putting them in lib as unversioned .so's should make Calamares
happy and silence lintian.
