Problem

The installer language/keymap selection does not work properly. Although most of the problems have existed for quite some time, the new UI makes them more evident.

Solution

  • Stop using signals to update the backend language. Now, there is an explicit SetLocale method, so we know exactly when it is finished.
  • Use a proper form (in a popup) to change the language/keymap. You need to click the "Accept" button to apply the changes.
  • Properly reload the screen after applying the changes. Disable the "Accept/Cancel" buttons while performing the changes.
  • Display a progress screen while re-reading the repositories (as it can take quite some time).
  • Move the "Download logs" to the sidebar.

Testing

  • Updated unit tests.
  • Tested manually.

Known problems

  • Some unwanted flickering.

Names of locales differ, notably between Linux and browsers: en_US.UTF-8 vs en-us so we should specify what the API expects or we will get subtle bugs

In this case, it expects an en_US.UTF-8 kind of locale. That's the only locale that the backend understands. The transformation is performed in the installerL10n.jsx context.

I have added a comment to clarify that. Thanks!

import InstallationFinished from "./InstallationFinished";

jest.mock("~/client");
jest.mock("~/components/core/InstallerOptions", () => () => <div>Instlaler Options</div>);
