Description of problem: Getting $Summary when attempting to kick off firstboot with system-config-language-1.3.2-5.fc11. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 1.3.2-5.fc11 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Run firstboot and watch the logs
Moving to beta target. This has been broken for multiple Fedora releases - do we really care about having this in firstboot?
No, I don't think this needs to be in firstboot anymore. It was only ever in reconfig mode, and we've been getting rid of those sorts of things as they come up.
This becomes a request to remove the firstboot functionality from the system-config-language package.
Oh, interesting to see this! Sugar Labs was trying to incorporate firstboot into Sugar on a Stick (a live media based on Fedora), where language selection would be very helpful. Is there any "easy" way of working around this? /me understands the point of cleaning up system-config-language, though. ;)
Well, for the 'normal' desktop, the language is choosable via GDM. I suppose some sort of sugar-display-manager (or sugar theme for GDM) is overkill?
Heh. We're doing auto-login through slim right now. That's why we had the idea of having firstboot coming up before, so that the user could select the language, a keyboard profile and chose whether he wanted to submit his information to smolt or not. One possibility might be to have gdm visible to the user only once and then an auto-login through it...
Missing some context here - why isn't this a Fedora bug?
It was originally filed for the RHEL 6 alpha.
do we reach to any conclusion here.. should we remove firstboot support from system-config-language? i think it will not affect anything much
Looks like this will be resolved by pulling in the F12 package where the functionality has been removed. Moving this issue to ON_QA and will verify once the package is available in RHEL.
thats nice, good to keep watch on bug #530698 as well
Fixed in 'system-config-language-1.3.3-3.fc12'. 'system-config-language-1.3.3-4.el6' included in compose 'RHEL6.0-20091216.nightly'. Moving to ON_QA.
system-config-language-1.3.3-4.el6 included in RHEL6.0-Beta1-3.0. Closing out.
