arraybolt3Lubuntu is the only current user of Calamares, yes.00:21
arraybolt3However, we test it to all get out, and up until just recently Ubuntu Studio was using it also.00:21
arraybolt3(They stopped using it after the Lubuntu Release Manager (tsimonq2) and Ubuntu Studio Team Lead (Eickmeyer) had a disagreement over whether empty user passwords should be acceptable, IIRC - there may have been more going on there though)00:23
arraybolt3Unit193 ^00:23
EickmeyerNah, that wasn't the reason.00:23
Unit193I thought Studio was going with Flutter, it'd kinda make sense if they did.00:24
arraybolt3Unit193: You found Cala lacking in partitioning options? Interesting, for me Cala was the most feature-rich as far as partitioning went.00:24
Eickmeyer1) Lack of OEM mode. 2) Lack of language selection at boot for the entire session. 3) Instability/crashiness. 4) Theming constantly having to be maintained.00:24
EickmeyerUnit193: Yes, I'm working on the Flutter frontend to subiquity this week.00:25
arraybolt3Eickmeyer: ah, makes sense00:25
Eickmeyerarraybolt3: Had nothing to do with the password disagreement.00:25
arraybolt3(though I've not noticed instability / crashiness)00:25
Unit1931. Doesn't matter.  2. This is likely not good.  3. I haven't personally hit this, at least.  4. Eww, we kinda want fire and forget. :300:25
Unit193"Likely not" is a bit weak there. >_>00:26
arraybolt3Eickmeyer: Huh, I thought that was the last straw from what I remember. I guess there was more to it.00:26
arraybolt3Unit193: fwiw Lubuntu has a lot of international users and it seems to work for them, but yeah, the install starts in English and then only changes in the installed system. So it could be a problem (possibly a big one) for some.00:27
Unit193#2 is sounding like the biggest issue, right.  I try not to minimize that one, which can happen as I only do English.00:28
EickmeyerUnit193: #2 affects the live session too.00:30
arraybolt3Correct.00:31
Unit193That's how I read it, yes.00:31
