    The Manjaro team is happy to announce the immediate availability of Calamares 3.1.0.2, a bug fix release hot on the heels of 3.1.0.

    Calamares is a distribution-independent system installer, with an advanced partitioning feature for both manual and automated partitioning operations. It is the first installer with an automated "Replace Partition" option, which makes it easy to reuse a partition over and over for distribution testing. Calamares is designed to be customizable by distribution maintainers without need for cumbersome patching, thanks to third party branding and external modules support.

    Highlights of this release include:

    • added support for PythonQT v3.2+
    • optimized Keyboard module
    • optimized Displaymanager module
    • simplified Partitionmanager module
    • improved User-Password-Generation with stronger Salt-Routine

    The Calamares 3 series includes an all new PythonQt-based module interface. The PythonQt interface is optional, and allows module developers to create view modules in Python with Qt.
    To build Calamares with PythonQt support, the -DWITH_PYTHONQT=ON parameter must be passed to the cmake call. PythonQt 3.1 or later (built against Qt 5 and Python 3) is required.

    This release also comes with a thoroughly documented dummypythonqt module, as an example on how to develop PythonQt Calamares modules.

    Calamares drops support for KPMcore 2 starting with version 3.0. KPMcore 3.0.3 or later is required.

    If you experience an issue with Calamares, please tell us all about it on the Upstream issue tracker and with installation problems with Manjaro Linux on our Manjaro issue tracker.
