captive portal implementation found lacking
Hey devs, So Simo wanted to explode so I've tried to distill down the issues we saw: a: you can't uninstalled the config connectivity package from workstation without losing gnome-shell and gdm. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1205963 this seems sub optimal. b: the feature is over zealous in its letting you know it can't find fp.org you are sitting there typing, you get a full screen window with some GNOME stuff on it, with no warning whatsoever. Has your local network crashed? no, fedoraproject.org webserver got outaged or the route failed over, but you don't get that info, you get a full screen GNOME page. maybe just indicate in the top corner or pop up a status bar for someone to click on to get the full screen page, my desktop is not a tablet maybe we should be trying to connect to more than one site, and maybe some sites on different networks. Otherwise I think this feature is a bit half baked as is.

It's already gone in F22; I may have steered people a bit wrong in IRC, because I checked on F22, where gnome-shell does not have that dep, but fedora-release-workstation does. In F21, indeed, Shell has the dep. -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Twitter: AdamW_Fedora | XMPP: adamw AT happyassassin . net http://www.happyassassin.net -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct

There's also a dependency in fedora-release-workstation, which I think is more defensible but is able to be worked around while still keeping gnome installed (e,g. by replacing fedora-release-workstation with fedora-release-nonproduct). this seems sub optimal. b: the feature is over zealous in its letting you know it can't find fp.org Agreed. There's a FESCo discussion and ruling on the feature at [1] which kind of fizzled out. I think it's worth following up there and through the aforementioned bug to follow through with the FESCo decision AGREED: Ask Workstation to rethink how to pull the package in with the goal of easily enabling people to opt out (+5, 0, -0) (sgallagh, 17:47:38) Rich [1] https://fedorahosted.org/fesco/ticket/1337 -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct
