[Bug 2055799] Re: FFe: Switch Ubuntu Unity to using Calamares

[Bug 2055799] Re: FFe: Switch Ubuntu Unity to using Calamares
ubuntu-unity-installer-prompt ended up being unnecessary (and prohibitively difficult to implement), so this has been dropped from the list of things that this FFe involves. ** Description changed: Filing this under calamares-settings-ubuntu as this is where the majority of the code will be. Ubuntu Unity intends on moving away from the Ubiquity installer this cycle. As discussed with team lead Rudra Saraswat on Matrix, the goal is to move to the Calamares installer currently used by Lubuntu and Kubuntu. (The Ubuntu Desktop Installer was considered but does not appear to be Ubuntu Unity's intended installer at the moment.) I believe this is relatively safe change to make, as I did the majority of the work to port Calamares to Kubuntu, and it was able to be ported to using Calamares in a couple of days. The remaining work was mainly due to development of brand new features (almost all of which will simply be ported to Ubuntu Unity rather than being created from scratch). Furthermore, a thorough testing checklist exists for flavors that use Calamares, helping to catch both flavor-specific and Ubuntu- wide bugs in Calamares. This checklist is used regularly by Lubuntu for every release, and would easily be applicable to Ubuntu Unity as well. Upon completion, all existing Ubuntu Calamares features will be enabled for Ubuntu Unity, including OEM installation mode, a try or install screen with network and localization selection menus, and full disk encryption with unencrypted /boot. This will require the following packages to be modified: * calamares-settings-ubuntu: Add config for Ubuntu Unity - * ubuntu-unity-installer-prompt (which will be a NEW package): Port installer prompt screen to Ubuntu Unity * casper: Automatically log into an ubuntu-unity-live-environment X session to start the installer prompt screen, provide the installation icon on Ubuntu Unity's desktop * debian-cd: Remove Ubiquity preseed, adjust GRUB menu entries to only provide a "Try or Install Ubuntu Unity" entry, as the OEM installation mode will be triggered from within the live environment rather than from the GRUB menu + + REMOVED: + + * ubuntu-unity-installer-prompt (which will be a NEW package): Port + installer prompt screen to Ubuntu Unity ** Description changed: Filing this under calamares-settings-ubuntu as this is where the majority of the code will be.

FFe granted. Please make sure this lands before beta; we don't want to be testing a beta with one installer and trying to go to final release with a completely different one. ** Changed in: calamares-settings-ubuntu (Ubuntu) Status: New => Triaged -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2055799 Title: FFe: Switch Ubuntu Unity to using Calamares To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/calamares-settings-ubuntu/+bug/2055799/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
