Proposing as an Alpha blocker on the same rationale as https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1431879 , which was accepted as a blocker: violates "A system installed with a release-blocking desktop must boot to a log in screen where it is possible to log in to a working desktop using a user account created during installation or a 'first boot' utility" in the case of an install without creating a user. Created attachment 1264850 [details]
journal from a VM test where g-i-s start failed five times then succeeded
Adam, I'm using Ubuntu GNOME 17.04 with GNOME 3.23.92/3.24 and Initial Setup's New User mode fails for me every time (even with the patches proposed so far to GNOME #674885). I mentioned an ugly workaround at https://bugzilla.redhat.com/1431879#c11 I haven't noticed Initial Setup being broken for existing users. It's easy to test; just remove ~/.config/gnome-initial-setup-done Initial Setup will then pop up every time you log in until you click through to complete Initial Setup. Yes, I already know the version of g-i-s that runs on first log in to a user account isn't broken, and I wouldn't expect it to be, because running i-s in an existing user's session doesn't involve session startup. This mode is failing during session startup. It does seem interesting that, so far, the g-i-s session startup seems much more prone to failure than a regular user session, but I want to do a bit more testing to be totally sure of that. +1 blocker from me, for the criterion mentioned in c#1 and the reasoning +1 blocker +1 Blocker That's +4 blocker (including me), setting accepted. We think we have a fix for this (rtcm found it, I tried it and it works for me), build coming soon. gnome-initial-setup-3.24.0-1.fc26 has been submitted as an update to Fedora 26. https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2017-559925b8d4 gnome-initial-setup-3.24.0-1.fc26 has been pushed to the Fedora 26 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-2017-559925b8d4 Confirmed fixed in Alpha RC2. gnome-initial-setup-3.24.0-1.fc26 has been pushed to the Fedora 26 stable repository.
