system-config-kickstart is largely deprecated, so it's unlikely that we will further revise it.  But I'm keeping the bug open for now.

Will it be removed then ? Will there be an alternative package ?

Comment 3 Chris Lumens 2013-12-18 19:01:33 UTC

The immediate plan is to reuse anaconda code to provide the UI, since anaconda's just building kickstart files now.  However, I don't see getting around to doing tests for either it or the current UI given how low priority it's been lately.
