Splitting off the bug Andre Robatino reported in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=692433#c22 : Anaconda can't report any traces in Fedora 16 Alpha RC3 if it's running in text mode, simply because the report-cli executable it tries to run (Andre sees "Can't execute report-cli: No such file or directory") is missing. This is part of the libreport-cli package. By switching to a console in the installer I can see that report-gtk and report-newt are available, but not report-cli.
Proposing as Alpha blocker under criterion "The installer must be able to report failures to Bugzilla, with appropriate information included". This will require judgement as this bug is conditional: it's specific to text mode installs.
I'm on it, will do my best to fix it later today, but my more realistic guess is Friday.
We need to add: libreport-gtk libreport-python libreport-plugin-bugzilla libreport-plugin-reportuploader libreport-newt + it's deps which should be pulled automatically
are you sure that's right? those look like things that are already in there.
(In reply to comment #4) > are you sure that's right? those look like things that are already in there. - yes, it's those packages + a fix to run newt UI instead of cmdline, I have it ready, but still fighting with creating my own anaconda img to test it (it's not as simple as it used to be when there was a separate stage2...)
Discussed in the 2011-08-10 Fedora 16 go/no-go meeting. Accepted as a Fedora 16 alpha blocker as it violates the following alpha release criterion [1]: The installer must be able to report failures to Bugzilla, with appropriate information included.

I hit this when I was testing for bug 729528 but when I hacked lorax to include the builds listed there, I was able to start reporting anaconda bugs to bugzilla. However, I got the following error when I tried to actually send it to bz: fatal: XML-RPC(-504): libcurl failed to execute the HTTP POST transaction, explaining: Problem with the SSL CA cert (path? access rights?) (exited with 1) I couldn't find any more details in the logs and this happened during two installation attempts (purposely hitting a known anaconda issue to make it crash).
Lorax is removing all /etc/ssl/* files from the ca-certificates package, so if libcurl needs them, this may be the problem.
Is the lorax update alone sufficient or is a libreport update also necessary, as discussed in the blocker meeting? If a libreport update is also needed, please bundle the updates together, to reduce the chances of us incorrectly pulling only a partial fix for RC4. thanks!

tflink, did you confirm this is okay in RC5?
Saving traceback in text mode works fine for me in RC5. it can file new bug/detect duplicate now.
thanks, setting VERIFIED.
