Doc Text:
Selecting the Lithuanian language causes the installer to crash If you select the Lithuanian (Lietuvių) langauge on the first screen of the graphical installer and press `Continue` (Tęsti), the installer crashes and displays a traceback message. To work around this problem, either use a different language, or avoid the graphical installer and use a different approach such as the text mode or a Kickstart installation.

This looks like a translation error in the blivet library.
Changing components.

7.6 installer does not crash anymore, so this bug can be closed.
