[Bug 1990887] Re: [SRU] oem-config-kde: window too small, bad UX

[Timo Aaltonen]

Hello Erich, or anyone else affected,

Accepted ubiquity into jammy-proposed. The package will build now and be
available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/22.04.18 in a
few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package.  See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how
to enable and use -proposed.  Your feedback will aid us getting this
update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested, what testing has been
performed on the package and change the tag from verification-needed-
jammy to verification-done-jammy. If it does not fix the bug for you,
please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-
failed-jammy. In either case, without details of your testing we will
not be able to proceed.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification .  Thank you in
advance for helping!

N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s)
fixed by this package have been verified and the package has been in
-proposed for a minimum of 7 days.

Title:
  [SRU] oem-config-kde: window too small, bad UX

Status in ubiquity package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in ubiquity source package in Jammy:
  Fix Committed
Status in ubiquity source package in Kinetic:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  [ Impact ]

  * During oem-config mode, the window is presented too small and causes
  readability issues with the keyboard layout presentation (see
  screenshot 1). It is easily fixed by manually resizing the window
  (screenshot 2), but this is a bad user experience and a bad first-
  touch item for OEM users.

  This is easily fixed via the patch provided and has been fixed in
  Kinetic.

  [ Test Case ]

  * Download Kubuntu  22.04.1 ISO

  * Install via OEM Install Mode

  * Double-click "Prepare For Shipping", enter password, reboot.

  * Notice window is presented too small upon first run for intended
  user during oem-config mode. When selecting keyboard layout, the
  presentation is very bad and key labels overlap each other.

  [ Where things could go wrong ]

  * This is a one-line fix that makes the window 790 pixels wide,
  meaning it is just smaller than wide enough for a 800 pixel-wide
  monitor. However, this is wider than a 640 pixel-wide monitor, and
  users with that small of a monitor will be affected. However, using
  Kubuntu 22.04 on a 640x480 display is a self-inflicted bad user
  experience anyhow, so only a very small fraction of those users will
  be affected. Additionally, this only affects the OEM config, and as
  far as I know, no OEMs are shipping 640 pixel-wide displays.
