consistent usage of yast2-country clients in autoyast configuration
Last modified: 2005-11-15 12:08:39 UTC
yast2-country clients should be used consistently in autoyast configuration: now some of them close the wizard windows and others don't (see #104231). It could be fine to create *_auto.ycp clients so we could reach consistency with other YaST modules.
Currently it works, so let's don't change it in beta phase but later for 10.1.
reopened to start some work
hmm, inst_keyboard and inst_timezone are called from autoyast, but language selection is done inside. Uwe, should I create _auto.ycp clients for all three parts? What should I output from them?
... for the language case, this would also add a possibility to configure secondary languages.
Created attachment 51569 [details] patch for autoinstallation/src/dialogs/general_dialogs.ycp This patch adds support for _auto clients of yast2-country, present there from last (yast2-country-2.13.3) version.
1. I'll assigne it to you so you can review the patch, check the result (sure, I have testyed it myslef) and apply it to autoinstallation. 2. More work could be done: a) support for secondary languages: in language_auto client and in autoyast schema b) rewrite the _auto clients to be consistent with ususal _auto client API - currently, these yast2-country clients are used only in config mode and are always called with the same paramaters. They do not support the functions of other _auto clients such as "Write", "Summary", etc. If you think I should force them to use the standard API, reassign back to me. It could be useful even in the case of supporting only one ("Change") function.
patch applied, thank you. I'll come back to you for the final step (point b)
fixed for the next release.
