Bug ID: 47804 Summary: Make adding Windows locales more scalable Product: Wine-Testbot Version: unspecified Hardware: x86 OS: Linux Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: unknown Assignee: wine-bugs@winehq.org Reporter: fgouget@codeweavers.com Distribution: ---
Currently adding a new Windows locale available for testing requires: 1. Manually installing the language on Windows, either through the Windows Update mechanism for Windows < 10, or through the new (cumbersome) Windows 10 interface. 2. Manually creating a new VM object through the web interface. 3. Manually creating a live snapshot. (*)
It also has consequences: 4. On the VM selection page of the submit job procedure this creates a new line for the VM. So if all 30+ Windows languages for each of the 3 VMs where that's possible we would be looking at 90+ lines. 5. On the Activity page there is one column per VM. That page would get way to big to be usable.
(*) LibvirtTool is no able to automatically change the Windows VM locale and create the appropriate live snapshot. So issue 3 is solved. Four more to go!
