PaaP (Partitioner as a Product)

Author: Stefan Hundhammer [email protected]

Motivation

The YaST installer is a very powerful, but also very complex tool; it is designed to cover a large variety of Linux installation scenarios. The user is asked a lot of questions in a lot of workflow steps; but in many of these, you can simply click "Next" and rely on the defaults.

In regular intervals, somebody tries to come up with something drastically simpler; an installer that is so dumbed down that it is borderline useless for all but the most trivial cases.

New kbd Package vs. kbd-legacy

The kbd Packages

In the current Tumbleweed, there are now two kbd packages:

kbd-legacy, the old one
kbd, the new one

To compare the package content, install QDirStat (zypper in qdirstat) and view both packages with qdirstat pkg:/kbd.

Settings for the installation procedure (installation language, keyboard)
Installation preparation (storage setup, ???)

Doxygen-Generated Autodocs on GitHub Pages

General Idea

GitHub offers hosting documentation on GitHub Pages. This can be done once for each GitHub user, for each GitHub organization, for each GitHub project.

If the process for building the autodocs is already in place (as is the case for libyui), it is just a matter of generating them, moving them to the right place, and deploying them to the project's GitHub Pages.
