I've opened canonical/ubuntu-desktop-installer#700 for tracking the issues found so far. This project will help us to catch this type of issues earlier. 👍 |
There's some brokenness here and there, mostly issues with assets,
but this is a good starting point... :)
It would have been nice to have ubuntu_desktop_installer fetched
straight from Git but pub doesn't like it because udi has some local
dependencies such as "glibc: path: ../glibc". Unfortunately, even
dependency_overrides doesn't help in this case:
"glibc" dependency: "../glibc" is a relative path, but this isn't a local pubspec.
Therefore, a Git submodule is used instead.

I'll investigate another way to import the installer & subiquity dependencies. |

Hi ! I am so excited about this ! Let me know if you need any help with that on the Ubuntu MATE side. |
- organize assets into subdirs named after pages to make it clear where each asset is used - use more generic and flavor-friendly asset names that don't assume the vanilla asset image content (e.g. "mascot" -> "logo") Ref: canonical#700 Ref: ubuntu-mate/ubuntu-mate-installer#1

@jpnurmi Can this be merged yet? How do we proceed with testing the new installer in Ubuntu MATE? |
|
My apologies that this is taking so long. I'm still waiting for a few ubuntu-desktop-installer changes to land, and then I'll be able to finish this.
Finally, after #727, we'll replace ubuntu-desktop-installer's subiquity submodule with a subtree. This will greatly simplify things because there won't be a need for any submodule or subtree in this repo. |
