--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : calamares
Product : Fedora 30
Version : 3.2.8
Release : 3.fc30
URL :
https://calamares.io/
Summary : Installer from a live CD/DVD/USB to disk
Description :
Calamares is a distribution-independent installer framework, designed to install
from a live CD/DVD/USB environment to a hard disk. It includes a graphical
installation program based on Qt 5. This package includes the Calamares
framework and the required configuration files to produce a working replacement
for Anaconda's liveinst.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:
An update of: * KDE Partition Manager and the KPMCore library to version 4.0.0:
https://stikonas.eu/wordpress/2019/05/02/kde-partition-manager-4-0/ The main
highlight of this release is that the GUI does not need to run as the `root`
user. See the linked blog post for more details. * Calamares to version 3.2.8.
See
https://calamares.io/ for the many changes since the previously packaged
version 3.1.8. In particular, UEFI "Secure Boot" is now supported. In addition
to the changes listed by upstream, the following fixes for critical Calamares
bugs specifically affecting Fedora were upstreamed into Calamares 3.2.8: * A
severe packaging issue has been fixed (by fixing the CMake code detecting the
library): Boost::Python3 was previously not detected correctly, so all Python
modules were missing. This is now corrected. * A critical bug where it would
fail to mount `/dev/mapper/live-base` (for unpacking into the target) was fixed.
(There were in fact 2 bugs: 1. the loop device `/dev/mapper/live-base` would get
accidentally destroyed by the `ClearMountsJob` in the `partition` module (a
regression in 3.2.x), and 2. the mounting in the `mount` module would fail to
mount it due to the mount flags used (a bug that also affected the previous
Fedora package).) * An issue where systems installed with Calamares and with
SELinux enabled would fail to start `dbus-broker` due to an SELinux labeling
issue was fixed. In addition, in the Calamares package included in this update:
* The "Secure Boot" `shim` support was fixed to create
`/boot/efi/EFI/fedora/grub.cfg` using `grub2-mkconfig`, so that UEFI
installations are actually bootable. (This fix will be included in Calamares
3.2.9.) * The optional `calamares-webview` subpackage is now built against
QtWebKit rather than QtWebEngine because QtWebEngine no longer accepts running
as `root` without workarounds (and unfortunately, Calamares still needs to run
as `root`, unlike KDE Partition Manager). * Calamares has a new `calamares-
plasmalnf` subpackage with the optional (disabled by default) `plasmalnf` module
that allows configuring the Plasma look&feel. The module is optional because it
depends on Plasma.
