And of course this can't be as simple as just removing the dependency in our spec file - Lorax also has it in its runtime templates! :P |
Drop the Tiger VNC package from Anaconda spec file. This by itself is actually not sufficient as for some reason Tiger VNC packages are also part of the Lorax templates (!). So to fully remove Tiger VNC, it is also necessary to remove it from the Lorax templates. Lastly, it looks like Tiger VNC is actually the only thing pulling in the mesa-dri-drivers (!!) packake, without which gnome-kiosk will crash at startup (!!!). So also add mesa-dri-drivers as a depndency of the Anaconda GUI package.
That should hopefully do it together with the Anaconda spec file change. FIXME: Temporary commit needed for testing and image generation purposes. Should not be part of the final PR before merging.

So I have looked into what happens if also some of the other VNC related boot options are used:
As for kickstart, the results are similar:

To summarize, a Tiger VNC removal should ideally also remove the code & possibly point the user to replacement options, if any, to avoid a bad UX. |
