Looks good, and it seems to not be directly affected by the terminology discussion that was restarted on Feature #8866 and on -ux@. Can’t merge it yet though, since we first need to decide something wrt. the wording so that the branch for Feature #9672 can be adjusted, and then both branches can be merged at the same time => please reassign to me once we’re there.

We should check if this is affected by the last wording decision.

I don’t mind having a look but I couldn’t find your report. /contribute/how/translate/team/de says “https://git-tails.immerda.ch/u451f/tails” but I get “No repositories found” when I visit this page.

it’s https://git-tails.immerda.ch/451f/tails without “u” :)

#12 Updated by sajolida 2015-08-20 08:01:24

Fixed on /contribute/how/translate/team/de then.

So that’s the end-user doc. I really don’t mind you updating it but I have time allocated for that myself and will go through the full doc anyway before we release it. So you can assign this ticket to me if you prefer for review or anything.

By the way, will the version of Tails Installer with the new wording be updated in Tails 1.6?

thanks, i was not aware that this was broken.

I updated it a bit, but I would indeed appreciate that you verify and correct what I did there :)
Reassigning the ticket to you for review.

I will verify this.

Next step is to check the diff / log -p between the code we currently ship in 1.5, and see if it’s not too scary to include these changes in a stabilization release. Worst case, 1.7 it will be.

I built up on your branch which updated the documentation to the new wording and availability of Tails Installer in Debian and Ubuntu.

Still, I don’t think we could yet document Tails Installer outside of Debian in 1.6. What is the ETA before having it in backports? If the new wording ends up in Tails before Tails Installer ends up in Debian backports, then we should split the changes introduced in this branch to only mention the change of wording in Tails Installer inside Tails.

It seems like we both overlooked this while working on this branch and broaden its scope to include Tails Installer outside of Tails. Tell what are your ETAs and then I’ll propose something to fix this.

#16 Updated by sajolida 2015-09-09 09:03:55

Ah, and you had several trailing whitespaces here and there: I highly recommend activating colors in Git, see Bug #9130#note-12.

> What is the ETA before having it in backports?

After the initial upload to sid, count: a few weeks through NEW + 5 days to migrate to testing + a couple weeks in backports-new.

Sorry for the delay.

I’d rather not make the rewording (that’s almost completed and should go in 1.7, which will be frozen in ~3 weeks, and is our last major release before the end of the year) depend on the timing on the Debian side (which is harder to predict) => let’s deal with these two problems separately. The one that’s out of the scope of this ticket is tracked by Feature #8563.

> Tell what are your ETAs and then I’ll propose something to fix this.

We’re working hard to do an initial upload to Debian experimental or sid this month, so that the package can hopefully clear the NEW queue while we fix the last remaining bits before we let it migrate to testing and upload to jessie-backports. (If this timing is problematic for reasons that are out of the scope of this ticket, let’s discuss it elsewhere. Thanks!)

Please update the topic branch field so that it’s clear where the latest version of your work lives, by the way :)

updated for my part.

#23 Updated by intrigeri 2015-10-03 05:48:40

sajolida: when you’re back to it, please merge your work into feature/9672-rework-installer-wording-on-wheezy and work in that branch, so that we can then merge the code changes and the corresponding doc update as an atomic operation :)

#24 Updated by intrigeri 2015-10-03 05:54:56

Note that U. has worked on it again in her own doc/installer_wording branch, possibly without merging sajolida’s work first (one more reason to update the feature branch field next time), so someone will have to merge all that together.

#25 Updated by Anonymous 2015-10-03 06:10:33

I just merged it. but i think i did not add a lot of interesting changes. @sajolida, please review.

#26 Updated by anonym 2015-10-12 08:20:40

sajolida, any ETA on this? I’m currently blocked by this ticket on Feature #9672, and would like to deal with it latest in one week, otherwise I risk having to deal with all these installer-related changes the same day as I prepare 1.7~rc1, which seems risky.

  • QA Check changed from Dev Needed to Ready for QA
  • Feature Branch changed from 451f:doc/installer_wording to feature/9672-rework-installer-wording-on-wheezy

So I cherry-picked the two commits from u that were directly related to the change of wording on the interface into feature/9672-rework-installer-wording-on-wheezy and I think that’s it for the time being.

What took me the more time on this was to actually figure out what was expected on this ticket. Now it looks a bit silly :)

anonym, is it enough to unblock you?

It did, thanks! I’m marking this one Fix Committed too given that you set the same feature branch, and assigned it as Ready for QA to me. Please undo this if I was assuming too much!
