Adriaan de Groot b68e535131 [libcalamares] Log to file and stdout consistently
- The log **file** got every QDebug object, while stdout only
  got the ones of sufficient logging level. A CDebug object checks the
  logging level before writing anything -- so those already were
  consistent, but any qDebug() in the program (not cDebug()!) would
  reach the writing-function anyway, and so log to the file.
  Fix this weird inconsistency by checking log-level just once,
  for both writes.

Calamares: Distribution-Independent Installer Framework


GitHub release GitHub Build Status Travis Build Status Coverity Scan Build Status GitHub license

Calamares is a distribution-independent system installer, with an advanced partitioning feature for both manual and automated partitioning operations. Calamares is designed to be customizable by distribution maintainers without need for cumbersome patching, thanks to third party branding and external modules support.

Target Audience

Calamares is a Linux installer; users who install Linux on a computer will hopefully use it just once, to install their Linux distribution. Calamares is not a "ready to use" application: distributions apply a huge amount of customisation and configuration to Calamares, and the target audience for this repository is those distributions, and the people who make those Linux distro's.

Calamares has some generic user documentation for end-users, but most of what we have is for distro developers.

Getting Calamares

Clone Calamares from GitHub. The default branch is called calamares.

git clone https://github.com/calamares/calamares.git

Calamares is a KDE-Frameworks and Qt-based, C++17, CMake-built application. The dependencies are explained in CONTRIBUTING.md.

Contributing to Calamares

Calamares welcomes PRs. New issues are welcome, too. There are both the Calamares core repository (this one), and an extensions repository (Calamares extensions).

Contributions to code, modules, documentation, the wiki and the website are all welcome. There is more information in the CONTRIBUTING.md file.

Join the Conversation

GitHub Issues are one place for discussing Calamares if there are concrete problems or a new feature to discuss.

Regular Calamares development chit-chat happens on old-school IRC (no registration required). Responsiveness is best during the day in Europe, but feel free to idle. The Matrix room is relatively new.
