--- Comment #2 from Matthias Clasen mclasen@redhat.com 2009-10-09 14:02:53 EDT --- This is an intentional change; we think having some location selected is better than none at all; it makes the location support more understandable. Ideally, we will have a) geolocation support to automatically detect your location and b) firstboot support to select the default location.

--- Comment #4 from Davide Cescato ceski@fedoraproject.org 2009-11-05 03:17:47 EDT --- I find the part of comment #2 after "Ideally" good. I disagree with the first part, though. Although I see the need of hinting the user about location support, I think that arbitrarily picking a location implies favoring a given city or country over all others and this may make some users feel discriminated. Politics may come at play here. Why a city on the East Coast and not on the West Coast? Why not a city in another country or continent?

So while the changes in comment #2 are being implemented, there should be no default location selected without any input from the user.

If I remember correctly, there was no hinting about location support previous versions of Fedora anyway, so there is no regression in not providing any in Fedora 12.

--- Comment #6 from Kieran Clancy clancy.kieran+redhat@gmail.com 2009-11-25 03:47:17 EDT --- Why does this need to be during firstboot?

Fedora 12 asked for my timezone/location when I installed it by showing a big map and getting me to click on it. Why doesn't it use that? It logged it in my anaconda-ks.cfg file, and assumably stored that information someplace.

Also, I agree with Davide that having no default location is better than choosing one arbitrarily.

--- Comment #7 from Dave Jones warrior_62095@yahoo.com 2009-12-09 11:16:36 EDT --- I agree with Kieran. I already selected Chicago from the map, so start there if you need a default. What is the point of me choosing if it will be ignored? Make the weather show in Chicago. At least that is in the same time zone.

Taking it a step further- I do not know if there is an equivalent of a zip code abroad (I admit this is probably something I should not be ignorant of) but maybe ask for that or give me a list of "weather locations" in the region of the "Chicago" selection I made earlier while doing the install. Why is it giving me Chicago option just to select Boston on it's own? I really want my weather the be in St. Louis, MO (which is Chesterfield, MO in the weather list) in the first place.

--- Comment #9 from Ray Strode [halfline] rstrode@redhat.com 2010-11-30 13:22:47 EST --- well part of the problem, I think, is the clock wants the user's actual location not timezone. We only get timezone during install, so e.g., if a user lives in Boston they would pick New York as a timezone.

That means if we used that information we would still end up with the wrong location out of the box in the clock.

I think ideally anaconda would let the user pick location not just timezone and then we could make gnome-panel (or the shell in gnome 3) pick that up by default

--- Comment #11 from Jens Petersen petersen@redhat.com --- I can't reproduce the original report with F15. So proposing to close this...

Anyway I guess the RFE is a gnome issue not anaconda. Probably better to open a bug for that, upstream even.
