Can you provide the complete traceback you received?

Comment 2 David Smith 2006-01-18 17:11:03 UTC
That was the complete traceback. What else do you need?

Comment 3 Jeremy Katz 2006-01-18 17:14:51 UTC
The full traceback includes a lot more logs and is saved as anacdump.txt

Comment 4 David Smith 2006-01-18 17:16:15 UTC
Ah, OK. I'll have to try the install again and get that for you.


Comment 5 Christian Iseli 2007-01-20 00:48:11 UTC
This report targets the FC3 or FC4 products, which have now been EOL'd.

Could you please check that it still applies to a current Fedora release, and
either update the target product or close it ?

Thanks.

Comment 6 David Smith 2007-01-20 01:02:14 UTC
Unable to reproduce after the first time. Since that version is being EOL'd,
closing as NOTABUG.
