Description Kjartan Maraas 2000-06-19 20:18:37 UTC

I tried selecting a few different languages and going back and forth a bit
in the installer. After chosing Italian, I got the following exeption.

Traceback (innermost last):
  File "/usr/lib/anaconda/gui.py", line 176, in run
    mainloop()
  File "/usr/lib/python1.5/site-packages/gtk.py", line 2538, in mainloop
    _gtk.gtk_main()
  File "/usr/lib/python1.5/site-packages/gtk.py", line 125, in __call__
    ret = apply(self.func, a)
  File "/usr/lib/anaconda/iw/timezone_gui.py", line 100, in setcurrent
    self.tz.setcurrent (self.default)
SystemError: NULL result without error in call_object


Cheers

Continuing to test different languages resulted in this:

- after checking out the czech language the titles for "network configuration"
were never reset to any of the languages chosen later.

- choosing hungarian made the installer hang. This did not repeat when choosing
Hungarian first.

- Just try to choose languages go forward a few screens and then go back and
choose another language. Repeat this and you'll experience all kinds of bad
things. (Buttons loosing their text, fonts not being reset etc.)
