Package: calamares-settings-debian
Version: 14.0.2-1
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
I am writing to report a missing dependency issue in
calamares-settings-debian that causes the show.qml slideshow to not display
during the installation phase.
I initially discovered this bug while repackaging calamares-settings-debian
for our custom debian-based distribution. Since our DE is GNOME, we
explicitly excluded systemsettings (which is pulled as a recommendation by
calamares). Without systemsettings installed, the slideshow fails to render.
To verify if this was an upstream issue, I tested the official Debian 13
GNOME live session ISO. Since live-task-gnome does not install
systemsettings, the exact same issue occurs there: the installation
proceeds, but show.qml is completely missing from the UI.
The Fix:
I investigated further and found that the issue is caused by a missing QML
module. By manually installing the qml6-module-qtquick-window package,
show.qml works flawlessly.
It appears that this QML module is currently being pulled in coincidentally
as a dependency of systemsettings (or other KDE/Qt packages). On non-KDE
environments like GNOME, this dependency is missing.
Suggestion:
Could qml6-module-qtquick-window be added as an explicit Depends (or at
least a strong Recommends) for calamares-settings-debian (or the main
calamares package, depending on where it fits best)?
Thank you for your time and for maintaining this package!
Best regards,
Lucky Mahendra Purba
