If a user would like to suggest a feature, should they add it as an issue at gitlab or in the Feedback > Feature Request or somewhere else?
For example: Manjaro’s Installer - Calamares
Toward the end of an ISO install, Calamares will do a (“pacman-mirrors”, “-f3”) using the worldwide mirrorpool.
I would like to suggest a feature that adds another step to Calamares. It could be as simple as some controls requesting:
–country, --geoip, --continent
–protocols
Or it could be a little more sophisticated and take the opportunity to inform the user, in text or graphic, about the update process, how mirrors/repositories work, and maybe include the wiki documentation webpage url and/or the Stable Update Annoucement url and Branch Compare url.
By accident I ran across an issue that already exists for this feature request at gitlab.manjaro. It is 3 years old and no one has done anything to the Issue (i.e., comment, assign, close), so I’m wondering — is this the right place?
Add the ability to choose Mirror by country during the installation
