Calamares 3.2.52 released

Feb 25, 2022

This is a regular short-cycle release. There are a handful of bugfixes. There are a number of things-to-watch-out-for (ask on the Matrix channel if needed):

  • Distributions that use the pacman package manager and experience crashes during installation should comment out the progress callback in the packages module.
  • Distributions with KDE Plasma 5.24 may need to disable automount in Plasma entirely.

This release contains contributions from (alphabetically by first name):

  • Evan James

Modules

  • users has a new key sudoersConfigureWithGroup to allow for different styles of sudo configuration. #1887
