Comment 2 Radek Vykydal 2017-04-20 08:11:05 UTC
Changes in bug 1394579 are causing regressions in Anaconda which has been assuming one conection per device (the matched ifcfg connection vs additionally generated in-memory connection).

Thank you,

we could also set some NM configuration in installer to run in something like the former behavior mode, but perhaps you want to fix it without special casing (ie based just on existence of NM state file?).

Comment 8 Radek Vykydal 2017-04-28 08:29:27 UTC
Will this update go to F26 as well? I am not sure if the new build for f26 has it and when it will hit the compose.

In Fedora we have two related bugs (bug 1439388, bug 1439051 - most probably having the same cause). The traceback itself should be fixed by anaconda patch, but we would be probably seeing issues similar to those we've been seeing in RHEL 7 without applying this NM change in Fedora.

Yes. Fedora 26 now has 1.8.0, which has this fix as well. https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2017-d285a0c72f
