The proposal is intended to help the non technical users of Fedora, and I do not see them using kickstart, so that is not a solution.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Yes but non technical users wouldn't care to navigate the UI you are proposing either. The entire proposal only satisfies a very small small niche for users receiving root mail and want to control exactly how they get it during installation itself. </div></div></div></div></div></blockquote><br></div><div>Why put a feature in the GUI installer to add a user to /etc/aliases for getting system mail messages when there isn't an MTA? Since the MTA will need to be installed, edit /etc/aliases at that time? This seems to add complexity for minimal value.</div><div><br></div><div>The installer does indeed already have a massive pile of options that many non-technical users don't care to navigate. It's even so much that technical users who QA the installer don't even have the time to go through all of the permutations to thoroughly test it.</div><div><br></div><div>I suggest if you're going to ask the installer team for features that you at least offer to write patches, but I think it's not very likely to be exposed in GUI, to me it sounds like an edge case request.</div></div></blockquote><br></div><div>I was saying this to the list at large, it was not explicitly directed to Rahul - that wouldn't make sense considering what he wrote right before my response!
