*** Bug 1314027 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Discussed at today's blocker review meeting [1]. Removing blocker nomination, because we accepted bug 1315434 as a blocker, which is a superset of this. Either this bug or bug 1313949 needs to get fixed. [1] https://meetbot-raw.fedoraproject.org/fedora-blocker-review/2016-03-07/ https://github.com/rhinstaller/anaconda/pull/542 should fix this, I think. I'll test it. anaconda-24.13.1-1.fc24 has been submitted as an update to Fedora 24. https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2016-d85d9ad927 anaconda-24.13.1-1.fc24 has been pushed to the Fedora 24 testing repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report. See https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:Updates_Testing for instructions on how to install test updates. You can provide feedback for this update here: https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2016-d85d9ad927 The latest live image still contains some i686 packages which also get installed after updating to anaconda-24.13.1-1.fc24 in the running live session: - nss-softokn-freebl-3.23.0-0.1.fc24.i686 - glibc-2.23.1-5.fc24.i686 - xorg-x11-drv-geode-2.11.18-1.fc24.i686 Since anaconda-24.13.1-1.fc24 is in the updates testing repository, it is not possible to test the network install which would require an updated boot media. If I understand correctly though, these updates will only be merged into the main repository after the Fedora 24 Alpha freeze unless some test images are released. please file a separate issue for that, that bug is not this bug. (In reply to Fedora Update System from comment #5) Neither current Fedora 24 x86_64 live media nor current x86_64 boot images (both sporting the older anaconda-24.13-1.fc24) do include/install i686 kernel packages. None of the images ever did include 32-bit kernels. The network installer (mostly) no longer installs them because we also fixed this from the other end; Pungi now properly excludes the 32-bit kernels from the x86_64 repos again. The anaconda fix is still valid but less urgently needed. We have not done any builds with the anaconda from updates-testing because David Shea tells me it will likely crash the way the current Rawhide installer does, due to locale issues (it includes a change to C.UTF-8 as the default locale which turns out to have been a bad idea). Created attachment 1135476 [details] Screenshot of Fedora 24 live session (date: 2016-02-25) (In reply to Adam Williamson from comment #9) Please convince yourself and look at the attached screenshot. anaconda-24.13.1-1.fc24 has been pushed to the Fedora 24 stable repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report. |
