arraybolt3I did some testing on the new installer prompt, fixed some bugs, seems to be working mostly great. However, we have some problems with language changing, it seems that KDE has a different method of changing system localization than LXQt had, and I don't know what method it's using.02:44
arraybolt3I'll probably dig into the source code of one of the KCMs to find out the secret, but anyway, so far the "Try" and "Install" buttons work, the network drop-down is *probably* buggy but seems to sorta work (I'll be digging into that further), and the language dropdown is broken entirely.02:45
arraybolt3so hey, it's progress!02:45
sgmoorearraybolt3: check neon to see what they did for localization09:02
sgmooresanta_: oops sorry, doing a do-all git push now09:02
sgmooreRikMills: Done09:03
santa_sgmoore: thanks, from apps this change is missing: https://launchpadlibrarian.net/713393305/marble_4%3A23.08.4-0ubuntu2~ubuntu24.04~ppa1_4%3A23.08.4-0ubuntu2~ubuntu24.04~ppa2.diff.gz12:11
santa_also there is a ~ppa2 version in the archive: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/marble12:11
santa_sgmoore: here https://git.launchpad.net/~kubuntu-packagers/kubuntu-packaging/+git/breeze-plymouth/commit/?h=kubuntu_noble_staging&id=6db73a9ee37960565d119da844e678f77c4c4782 you are removing .gitattributes disabling the changelog merger13:18
-ubottu:#kubuntu-devel- Commit 6db73a9 in ~kubuntu-packagers/kubuntu-packaging/+git/breeze-plymouth "Merge from Debian unstable. Remaining changes:"13:18
santa_sgmoore: also, https://git.launchpad.net/~kubuntu-packagers/kubuntu-packaging/+git/kalgebra/log/?h=kubuntu_noble_archive -> 7 commits like "release to archive" or "release to noble" what happened there?13:48
santa_and same thing with the .gitattributes here: https://git.launchpad.net/~kubuntu-packagers/kubuntu-packaging/+git/kdeplasma-addons/commit/?id=d7820b7b04663e704bbe2972a2494512c671d62713:50

santa_also I see kalgebra is not the only git repo with multiple "release to noble" commits: https://code.launchpad.net/~kubuntu-packagers/kubuntu-packaging/+git/akregator/+ref/kubuntu_noble_archive13:54
santa_what's going on?13:54
arraybolt3sgmoore: looks like Neon doesn't let you change the language on the live system in an easy way :P the closest they have is the language selector on the bootloader screen and choosing a non-English language there (I went with Spanish) doesn't change the language of the live session.16:03
arraybolt3oh but the keyboard selection somehow took hold, odd16:05
arraybolt3hey, figured it out! Missing a locale-gen call.16:33
arraybolt3perfect, that'll almost certainly work.16:33
arraybolt3Got locale changing working. Keyboard layouts aren't being set properly *yet* but I assume that's going to be an easy fix.18:01
arraybolt3hey! looks like keyboard-layout-specific LUKS passphrases are also going to work!18:08
arraybolt3since I just unintentionally installed a VM with a Dutch keymap LUKS passphrase :P or at least I think it was Dutch18:08
arraybolt3ok, I'm going to abandon keyboard layout. This is a change the user can make themselves in the live session or in Calamares, and it's rather difficult to implement in the installer prompt.18:24
arraybolt3language changing is working well, but there are way too many language choices to be functional and most of them don't work.18:28
arraybolt3So what I think I'll do is change this from an autodetected list to a hardcoded one so that only supported languages are shown. The last thing we need is someone to say "hmm, do I need to pick Chinese (Cantonese) or Chinese (China)?" and click the wrong one.18:29
arraybolt3What team do I need to be a part of to push to repos in the kubuntu-packaging project? I'm hoping to push the new kubuntu-installer-prompt there before uploading it to Launchpad.19:57
arraybolt3Alternatively if someone is here who can help with this, I'm happy to throw you a tarball so you can push.19:58
arraybolt3tsimonq2: ^19:58
rick-timmisLet me take a look at LP arrabolt3 see if I can work it ou20:11
rick-timmist20:11
rick-timmisHmmm so looks like you'd need https://launchpad.net/~kubuntu-ppa20:16
rick-timmisor Kubuntu Ninjas20:16
rick-timmishttps://launchpad.net/~kubuntu-ninjas20:16
rick-timmisI am not a member of either, so I can't help further. Rik Mills, Scarlett or Simon should be able to help further20:17
arraybolt3Makes sense. Both of those sound like something I probably shouldn't be added to until I've contributed to Kubuntu a bit more. Is it OK if I just upload the package for now and get the code in Git later?20:18
rick-timmisI think so20:18
RikMillsarraybolt3: You have more than earned credentials. I am happy to add you20:40
RikMillsdone20:43
arraybolt3thank you, will get it pushed soon20:50
arraybolt3https://code.launchpad.net/~kubuntu-packagers/kubuntu-packaging/+git/kubuntu-installer-prompt21:00
RikMillsarraybolt3: "will either launch Calamares or LXQt"21:40
arraybolt3looks like something escaped my cleanup21:41
RikMillsthat obviosly needs changing21:41
RikMillsyeah21:41
arraybolt3it does launch Plasma, and I tried to remove all mentions of Lubuntu and LXQt from the app, but I see I missed one :P21:41
RikMillsit's fine21:41
* arraybolt3 jots down to fix that in the next upload21:42
RikMillsI would even say something to promising to fix a a new upload21:42
RikMillsand not bother with in the NEW review21:42
arraybolt3good point21:43
RikMillssome many time I have done that. promised to fix something in a follow up upload when a NEW thing gets approved21:44
RikMillsthe archive team are usually quite accepting of that21:44
arraybolt3Got the fix in Git, also noted it down in the changelog, but left it UNRELEASED.21:46
arraybolt3So that way no one will forget :D21:47
rick-timmisA little bit more work on the website upgrade: https://invent.kde.org/teams/distribution-kubuntu/2024-25-strategic-plan/-/issues/1422:51
