#2904 Change: Remove initial-setup from KDE Spin & Kinoite
Closed: Accepted a year ago by churchyard. Opened a year ago by bcotton.

Initial Setup is an application that can run during the first start of a newly installed computer and makes it possible to configure the computer according to the needs of the user. We currently don't use most of the functionality of Initial Setup in the main KDE Spin and Kinoite installation ISOs as everything gets configured at installation time via Anaconda. We thus want to remove this package from the installation ISOs while keeping it where we currently need it (pre-installed disk images, etc.). Note that an "initial setup" app is still needed to enable OEM-style installations (https://askubuntu.com/questions/1386806/what-is-oem-installation-regarding-linux-distributions) of the KDE Spin/Kinoite (like Fedora Workstation/Silverblue) so we're planning on introducing a more KDE native application as a replacement once it is ready, but that may not happen as part of this change.

Owners, do not implement this work until the FESCo vote has explicitly ended.
The Fedora Program Manager will create a tracking bug in Bugzilla for this Change, which is your indication to proceed.
See the FESCo ticket policy and the Changes policy for more information.

I would prefer to see it replaced rather than simply dropped, but I don't feel strongly enough to vote against it.

I don't have the replacement ready, but Anaconda initial setup is horribly broken as it is. I am working on getting the replacement ready and will make a Change once it's ready.

After a week, the vote is
APPROVED (+3,1,-0)
