Add the locale1-x11-sync script to the anaconda-live subpackage (#2346855) #6202
Conversation
…6855) This script installed to the libexec folder and the systemd unit triggering it are needed for controlling X11 system keyboard layouts using the systemd-localed DBus API. Without the script and the systemd unit keyboard switching will not work on X11 Fedora Live spins. Both might end up in a separate package eventually but for now it should be enough to ship them as part of the anaconda-live package. (cherry picked from commit a8c0035) Resolves: rhbz#2346855

Maybe split it as a subpackage in this specfile, that way it's easy to move to an independent package later.

That is a good point.
If we go this way, we would have to do a side tag build between kiwi/fedora-kickstarts and anaconda or we would have to remove it first from Anaconda which would break stuff. Is there a better way?
On the other hand if this will be a new subpackage then we can exclude this sub-package in kiwi/fedora-kickstarts with the same change-set as adding a new one. However, I wonder how to reasonably include as dependency of anaconda-live, did the weak deps works as expected? I know lorax ignores weak deps but live is build with Anaconda so it might be fine?
Any recommendation how to handle the switch @Conan-Kudo?

Do it as a subpackage, weak deps are honored in both kiwi and lorax.

This new subpackage would have Supplements: (xorg-x11-server-Xorg and livesys-scripts) and would be automatically pulled in accordingly.

I'm pretty sure that Lorax ignores weak deps, but not for Live because there is Anaconda who installs those packages.
Anyway, we can move it is separate sub-package later. That should be easy operation and currently we have our hands full. Let's go with this version and we can fine-tune it later.

But we don't use non-live lorax for X11 environments, so it's not an issue.
