[yast-devel] Moving past CSS for the Installer
by Stasiek Michalski 30 Jan '20

30 Jan '20

Hi, I have been thinking about this for quite a while, and decided it might be a good time to take action in this direction. As you might know, we use an extensive set of CSS files to make our installation medium look like it looks. However since those CSS files are CSS2, because Qt pretty much abandoned CSS in Qt entirely, and it's probably going to be removed at some point. I have asked KDE maintainers how hard it would be to compile Breeze without Kfluff, and while possible, it's not exactly the easiest. Also, from my short interaction with HuHa today, we also need a high contrast theme. I did find something that would work, however it might be a pretty bizarre choice for us. Adwaita-Qt and HighContrast-Qt are two themes that qualify for both: no Kfluff and have high contrast option (and SUSE can use Adwaita-Dark ;). From there, we can get rid of the rest of the CSS, only having to write small helpers to add our branding per distro on top of that. What do you think? https://github.com/FedoraQt/adwaita-qt https://github.com/FedoraQt/highcontrast-qt LCP [Stasiek] https://lcp.world -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: yast-devel+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: yast-devel+owner(a)opensuse.org

[yast-devel] YaST:Head - removed "openSUSE Leap 15.0" build target
by Ladislav Slezak 29 Jan '20

29 Jan '20

Hi all, JFYI: because openSUSE Leap 15.0 is out of support for almost 2 months and to save some OBS build power I have removed that distribution from YaST:Head. -- Ladislav Slezák YaST Developer SUSE LINUX, s.r.o.

[yast-devel] Re: Partitioner: changing the default tab
by Ancor Gonzalez Sosa 24 Jan '20

24 Jan '20

First of all, I'm moving this discussion to the yast-devel mailing list. This is not internal team stuff. On 1/23/20 3:36 PM, David Díaz wrote: > Hi folks! > > As part of my current PBI[1], I must raise a discussion about the > default behavior of pages with tabs in the Partitioner :) > > The question is simple, should we really display the "Overview" tab by > default?

Let's clarify what we are discussing here. David is implementing something that, so far, has been agreed as a reasonable first step. Let's say you are in the "Partitions" tab of sda with the second partition selected on the table. Then you jump to another device, and then another and another, and finally you click in "sda" again. You will land in the "Partitions" tab with the second partition pre-selected in the table (if that partition still exists). So far, so good. But what we are discussing here is which should be the active tab the very first time you visit a given device. As said, currently is always the first one... and that one is "Overview" for all devices. Is that the most useful tab? Maybe not in all cases. Why are we landing there then? The point is that the time in which you used a disk only to create partitions on it and a software RAID only as some kind of virtual partition are gone. Now you can use a disk to directly format it, something relatively common for pendrives and for data volumes in servers. And you can use a software RAID as some kind of virtual disk in which you create partitions, apart from formatting the RAID directly (which was the only option in the old partitioner). And the same applies to Bcache devices, that you can also format directly or break into partitions... That's why we decided to always land in the first tab, that is "Overview" for all devices... as the most simplistic approach. This week Iván suggested to auto-select the default tab based on the content of the device. If the disk/RAID already contains a partition table, the default tab would be "Partitions". If not, it would be "Overview". It makes a lot of sense and it's likely the best way to reduce the number of clicks. But I fear it can be confusing. Many users will not realize why the hell the Partitioner chooses one tab or another for different devices. Arvin pointed that the old Partitioner tries to always keep the same tab as long as you are visiting devices of the same type. I mean, if you go to sda->partitions and then click on sdb, you will land in the "Partitions" tab of sdb because that's where you were in the previous disk. Same applies to LVM (being in "vg0->physical volumes" and clicking on vg1 will take you to "vg1->physical volumes") and other kind of devices. So we are not sure what is the best approach here. All the ideas has pros and cons.

[yast-devel] Refactoring areas and/or modules with several bugs
by Ancor Gonzalez Sosa 07 Jan '20

07 Jan '20

I've gone through the full list of bugs assigned to the YaST Team or some of its members with the intention of closing obsolete stuff that are not real issues anymore. In the process I found out there are some YaST modules or areas that have quite some open bugs. Some of them are modules that never receive attention (no-man shows, as HuHa likes to call them). Localization bugs (mainly problems with non-latin languages): 22 open bugs dns-server && dhcp-server (they are so related that even share bugs): 20 open bugs, aprox. NTP: 13 open bugs Bootloader: 20 open bugs, aprox. NFS: 12 open bugs, I already plan to focus the firepower of the storage squad here for the following sprint(s). Storage: 30 open bugs, aprox. but they are under control ;-) Network: hard to say, at least 50. If reducing the number of bugs is a goal, I think it would be worth to create small groups of 2-3 developers to focus on a given module for a month or two. That would be enough time to gather the knowledge about the topic and refactor the most important parts (those modules are usually not that big). In some cases, that can mean up to 20 bugs solved and a more sane codebase (plus some refreshed knowledge) for the future. Let's assume two small refactoring squads (2-3 people each) working in parallel. I think that, for example, DNS+DHCP+NFS+NTP could all be brought into shape in less than two months. That would be around 45 fewer bug reports. What do you think? Cheers PS.- Network is, of course, a completely different story. I hope we can close many bugs as obsolete in something like two years from now, when network-ng would had already replaced the current implementation. -- Ancor González Sosa YaST Team at SUSE Linux GmbH -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: yast-devel+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: yast-devel+owner(a)opensuse.org

[yast-devel] I have ported yast-storage-ng to Crystal
by Ancor Gonzalez Sosa 06 Jan '20

06 Jan '20

Ok, and now that I got your attention, let's rephrase the subject into something more realistic: "I'm starting to port to Crystal a very small and limited subset of yast-storage-ng". See more details at https://github.com/ancorgs/y3storage Is something I wanted to do in the past Hack Week... and in the previous one... and so on. So finally I used the downtimes of my recent trip to Nuremberg and some vacation time to get it started. Since next Hack Week will take place soon, I hope to continue with that and maybe experiment with automatic translation or bindings. Let's see. So far, you can get surprised about how similar both languages are by displaying y2storage/disk_size.rb side by side with y3storage/disk_size.cr, or also y2storage/disk_size_test.rb and disk_size_spec.cr. Cheers. PS.- No, there is no evil plan to migrate YaST to Crystal. This is just done in the Hack Week spirit of "what if". -- Ancor González Sosa YaST Team at SUSE Software Solutions -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: yast-devel+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: yast-devel+owner(a)opensuse.org
