system-config-kickstart's Issues

Presence of interface for settings regarding current user credentials

Version-Release number of component: system-config-kickstart.noarch 2.10.0-2.fc29 @fedora

Enhancement request: presence of interface for settings regarding current user credentials.

While both Root and a user credentials have been set during installation and are present as text as illustrated

# Root password
rootpw --iscrypted $1$.3m/IQkI$TgRCt6oievDsQmCyuiIhs0

user --groups=wheel --name=<a-user> --password=$6$k96hj7Ojh22UIdvtq$zu0PRqiwuRZhFs1Aaqbceqr9XXTUSu7MzUcCK5zyxutBuzgeQ3qw12tMtT8uurEAcaqpARBM/NW6Ho32L18fU. --iscrypted --gecos="a-user"

under Basic configuration, setting related to Root is alone handled graphically:

Reliability needed regarding states indicated through check-boxes of trusted services by firewall

Version-Release number of component: system-config-kickstart.noarch 2.10.0-2.fc29 @fedora

Enhancement request: under Firewall configuration while a service – here SSH – is selected through its dedicated check-box, once a Kickstart file to which those changes were applied is reopened, that check-box is then empty despite its attributes are still present as text. State of a selected service is expected to be indicated through its check-box reliably.

please migrate to the new Fedora translation platform

Hello, the Fedora project migrates its translation platform to Weblate [1].

This tool directly interact with your git repository, and requires us to know:

• [mandatory] which branch is your development branch?
• [mandatory] have you merged latest translation from Zanata and locked the project?
• [info] Weblate will handle updates when pot file changes, don't edit po files for this [2]
• [optional] what is the license of translation? (please use a code from https://spdx.org/licenses/)
• [optional] do you have any announcement/warning you would like to display to the translators? (it will be displayed in Weblate)
• [optional] do you need us to activate any specific checks? (this is a setting per component [3])
• [optional] do you need us to automatically detect new translation files? (typical usecase: website translation with one translation file per page)

Please note:

• For github and gitlab hosted projects, Weblate open pull request. For other git hosting, you'll have to add a key to allow commits.
• In Weblate's vocable, one project is a group of component. Each component is a translation file. You can have many projects or many components or both.
• You can change your mind over time, just reach [email protected]

$ dnf -q info system-config-kickstart | grep ^URL
URL          : http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/SystemConfig/Tools
$ rpm -qi system-config-kickstart | grep ^URL
URL         : http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/SystemConfig/Tools
$ man 8 system-config-kickstart
