Hello.

Tails-Greeter project ( https://tails.boum.org/todo/TailsGreeter/ ) has finally
reached important milestone: basic functionality should work :)

Please help testing it by building TAILS .iso from "feature/tails-greeter" branch in
git.immerda.ch/max/tails.git OR by building package directly from
git.immerda.ch/max/tails-greeter.git and installing it to your tails system.

What should work:

- after gdm is loaded you should see request for language (example: English)
- next screen will allow you to pinpoint exact locale (example: en_GB)
- next screen allow you to pick password for "amnesia" user which will be asked when
you invoke sudo (example: "sudo ls" will ask for password which is "amnesia" be default)
- after login type "locale" in terminal to verify that it's properly applied

Known issues:

- layout selection does not work yet
- too many screens and button clicks

Please give it a try and report any errors you'll hit:
- wrong locale for your language?
- inconvenient behavior?
- confusing message?
- something just wrong?

email to the list or directly to me with your feedback.

thanks,
Max.
