Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 241975
Get localized release notes into the tree, anaconda to display them
Last modified: 2013-01-09 20:38:34 EST
## Description of problem: Users using anaconda in a language other than english are getting a (localized!) message "The release notes are missing". ## How reproducible: Run anaconda. Choose "Greek" as a language. Click on "Relase notes". ## Expected results: Display greek release notes. ## Additional info: At some point, we should include on the CD all release notes in a separate directory, `docs/relnotes/`.
Fixed anaconda so it falls back to English release notes if nothing else is found. Reassigning to pungi for getting the translated release notes into the tree. Jesse - please give us a shout if you rearrange the release notes location so we can correct our assumptions.
(Adding Paul Frields as CC.) Chris, thanks for the fix. I should have seen this in test4. :/ If we create a docs/ dir, we can move in there the stylesheets and relnotes, and have the README and README-BURNING-ISOs too. If so, we might need subdirs for each language to avoid cluttering.

This bug is now addressed by an updates image. It is available for download at: http://people.redhat.com/clumens/f7-updates.img Instructions for using updates disks are located at: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Anaconda/Updates If possible, please test this image out and report if it fixes your issue or not. Once we are confident that your issue is solved by this image, we are going to announce it more publicly. This fix may also be included in an updated anaconda package later for people who are making custom Fedora distributions. Thanks for your time.

This is going to add 14megs~ to the iso size. Also, I seem to recall some thought about removing the installer's ability to read the release notes during install. Chris, am I crazy regarding that?
we're no longer displaying the release notes in the installer. That makes this bug moot.
If we're having the English ones in the ISO (even if anaconda doesn't display them), we should probably have the localized ones too. 14 megs sound something we could handle.
Dimitris, I think that release notes will go avay from the CD as well. Anaconda guys can confirm if that's 100% sure.
Yes, all the release notes are going away on the iso (well except those that are in the package included on the iso, but those have the translations too)
