Comment 1 Chris Lumens 2006-02-06 15:02:52 UTC
Is this on FC4 or Rawhide?  Do you have any yum repos enabled in /etc/yum.repos.d?

Comment 2 Richard Hally 2006-02-06 19:11:05 UTC
this is a FC5test2 install with all the updates from rawhide. the only repo I
have enabled is the fedora-devel.repo. it looks like this:

Comment 3 Chris Lumens 2006-02-06 20:25:17 UTC
Does your fedora-devel.repo have "[development]" as the first line?  What are
the contents of /etc/redhat-release?

Comment 4 Richard Hally 2006-02-06 22:58:33 UTC
yes, :

[root@localhost ~]# cat /etc/yum.repos.d/fedora-devel.repo
[development]
# These packages are untested and still under development. This
# repository is used for updates to test releases, and for

Comment 5 Chris Lumens 2006-02-07 20:35:15 UTC
Tomorrow's package should have more sane repo handling.

Comment 6 Richard Hally 2006-02-09 04:18:32 UTC
system-config-kickstart-2.6.5-1 starts from a terminal window with the following
error:
[richard@localhost ~]$ system-config-kickstart
/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/pirut/GroupSelector.py:318: GtkWarning:
gtk_tree_view_scroll_to_point: assertion `GTK_WIDGET_REALIZED (tree_view)' failed
  tree.scroll_to_point(0, 0)

It starts and runs in spite of the above warning. However,
from the (Gnone) menu, it fails to start with a message box that says that the
file or directory does not exist: /usr/sbin/systme-config-kickstart.
It looks like the menu item needs to be updated to reflect the it is now in
/usr/bin not /usr/sbin.
