An update that solves one vulnerability and has one errata
is now available.

Description:

This update for calamares fixes the following issues:

– Launch with “pkexec calamares” in openSUSE Tumbleweed, but launch with
“xdg-su -c calamares” in openSUSE Leap 15.

Update to Calamares 3.2.15:

– “displaymanager” module now treats “sysconfig” as a regular entry in the
“displaymanagers” list, and the “sysconfigSetup” key is used as a
shorthand to force only that entry in the list.
– “machineid” module has been re-written in C++ and extended with a new
configuration key to generate urandom pool data.
– “unpackfs” now supports a special “sourcefs” value of file for copying
single files (optionally with renaming) or directory trees to the target
system.
– “unpackfs” now support an “exclude” and “excludeFile” setting for
excluding particular files or patters from unpacking.

Update to Calamares 3.2.14:
– “locale” module no longer recognizes the legacy GeoIP configuration.
This has been deprecated since Calamares 3.2.8 and is now removed.
– “packagechooser” module can now be custom-labeled in the overall
progress (left-hand column).
– “displaymanager” module now recognizes KDE Plasma 5.17.
– “displaymanager” module now can handle Wayland sessions and can detect
sessions from their .desktop files.
– “unpackfs” now has special handling for sourcefs setting “file”.

Update to Calamares 3.2.13.
