Description Petr Kremensky 2013-07-08 12:11:04 UTC

Description of problem:
There is message:
Pack [Name: Quickstarts and Index: 11] must be installed because it is required!
during installation via auto.xml when no quickstarts are installed. 
Installation of quickstarts is not required.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
EAP 6.1.1 ER2

Steps to Reproduce:
1. install EAP, choose not to install quickstarts, generate auto.xml at the end of installation
2. uninstall EAP
3. install it again using auto.xml generated before

Actual results:
 - "Pack [Name: Quickstarts and Index: 11] must be installed because it is required!" message is shown during installation
 - no quickstarts are installed (that is good :)).

Expected results:
 - "Pack [Name: Quickstarts and Index: 11] removed from selection." message is shown as it is with other excluded components.

Comment 1 Francisco Canas 2013-07-09 17:39:38 UTC

I have fixed the above issue by implementing two changes:

1. The quickstart package is no longer marked 'required' in core-packs.xml.

2. Added a "selectable" attribute to core-packs pack elements. If this attribute is present and set to "false", it prevents the user from manually adding/removing the pack to the installation files in the TreePack panel. This new attribute should be used when the pack can should only be added/removed via conditions in other panels, but not in the TreePackPanel as is the case with Quickstarts.

See these commits for details:

Verified on EAP 6.1.1 ER3. Installer is now acting as Francisco described.
