Ok, that fixed the specific issue. I tested today the KDE-dev (2016-08-10)
and i got another new issue (but it is the same bug looking at the
stacktrace):
I selected Manual partitioning -> checked encryption, and it appeared the
window asking the encryption password, but as soon as i start typing few
character, the bug window appear:

 My proposal is to completely remove the icons and place instead a
 welcome window like Fedora does on its live CD, so this will make
 installation more immediate and even more understandable by the users.
 So I found the script shipped with anaconda that create the welcome
 window and I was planning to make it compatible with calamares but, since
 we have replaced it with anaconda, I think is even more easy to make it
 work on our distro.
 Tomorrow I will test it on a daily image crossing my fingers.

 Excuse me for my delay in my reply but I was really busy during this

 Installer worked, again the mouse theme changed just like on MATE spin,
 but everything installed it seems.

 When trying to reboot from live KDE spin, it simply logs into a fresh
 KDE live session again.
 After a reboot I notice SDDM being my DM and Kodi is selected as the
 default session.
 I select Plasma as my default session and it seems to load up fine.

 I will now try testing the same spin on a baremetal machine.

 Dailies will still be there of course, giving us the ability to
 test better and having a good release everytime.

 KDE bug showed up since the plasma 5.6.7 bump, i suggest to give
 sddm another shot now thlhat we have the occasion (we decided to not 
 use it
 because was having major issues with ati video cards).

 For GNOME, Francesco was taking care of it, but he was proposing to
 remove icons at all and adding a welcome screen (like fedora/ubuntu 
 and so
 on) which is more user friendly than the current boot process. 
 Francesco,
 can you make a proposal of changes, or write few lines on what you was
 thinking of?

 Cheers

 First of all,
 I think I fixed all outstanding anaconda issues (including the grub
 splash) and I am pushing anaconda-22.5 right now.

 But I still see at least a couple of major issues with the images I
 tested (GNOME and KDE):
 - GNOME desktop icons are incorrectly positioned, they are one
 above the other.
 - KDE LightDM integration (after install) seems broken, X starts at
 a very low resolution and there is no background (the background is 
 white).

 I think we should fix at least these two things before cutting a
 new release.

Re: [sabayon-dev] Some release blockers

Quick tested KDE dev spin (latest build from today) in Vbox.
Installer worked, again the mouse theme changed just like on MATE spin, but
everything installed it seems.

When trying to reboot from live KDE spin, it simply logs into a fresh KDE
live session again.
After a reboot I notice SDDM being my DM and Kodi is selected as the
default session.
I select Plasma as my default session and it seems to load up fine.

I will now try testing the same spin on a baremetal machine.

 Dailies will still be there of course, giving us the ability to test
 better and having a good release everytime.

 KDE bug showed up since the plasma 5.6.7 bump, i suggest to give sddm
 another shot now thlhat we have the occasion (we decided to not use it
 because was having major issues with ati video cards).

 For GNOME, Francesco was taking care of it, but he was proposing to
 remove icons at all and adding a welcome screen (like fedora/ubuntu and so
 on) which is more user friendly than the current boot process. Francesco,
 can you make a proposal of changes, or write few lines on what you was
 thinking of?

 Cheers

 First of all,
 I think I fixed all outstanding anaconda issues (including the grub
 splash) and I am pushing anaconda-22.5 right now.

 But I still see at least a couple of major issues with the images I
 tested (GNOME and KDE):
 - GNOME desktop icons are incorrectly positioned, they are one above
 the other.
 - KDE LightDM integration (after install) seems broken, X starts at a
 very low resolution and there is no background (the background is white).

 I think we should fix at least these two things before cutting a new
 release.

Just tested MATE daily dev that was build today and it seems that
everything works just fine. (Even Grub theme got installed).
I'll try to find some time to test KDE spin

About cycle release, soon i'll open up another thread wrt cycle release
scheduling. Then main idea is to cut a stable release every 4 months.

Indeed i blocked crons and holded monthly automatic releases, i think thats
also the occasion to switch to a "less often" release cycle for monthly and
cutting stable releases instead of automatic ones.

Dailies will still be there of course, giving us the ability to test better
and having a good release everytime.

KDE bug showed up since the plasma 5.6.7 bump, i suggest to give sddm
another shot now thlhat we have the occasion (we decided to not use it
because was having major issues with ati video cards).

For GNOME, Francesco was taking care of it, but he was proposing to remove
icons at all and adding a welcome screen (like fedora/ubuntu and so on)
which is more user friendly than the current boot process. Francesco, can
you make a proposal of changes, or write few lines on what you was thinking
of?

Cheers
