PPC still fails.. 
Now it fails after determining all the dependencies for the packages.

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/anaconda", line 944, in ?

This is a different bug.  Please open a different bug report.

Comment 8 Don Zickus 2006-09-08 20:50:49 UTC
technically yes, but semantically no.  read the summary.  you have yet to
properly solve this problem.  i'm not going to file a new bug every time i
advance the anaconda screen and it crashes again.  



Comment 9 Peter Jones 2006-09-11 14:34:24 UTC
The original bug has been fixed, and you're now reporting an unrelated issue. 
As such, it needs to be a separate bug report.  Thank you.

Comment 10 Don Zickus 2006-09-11 15:34:39 UTC
Not really, my original bug before being dup'd here was that PPC failed to
install.  Well guess what it still fails to install on PPC.  I really don't care
how many bugs in anaconda get fixed, until I can install on PPC, I consider this
problem unresolved.  

If we want to be technical about things, you can consider the original fix for
this problem as 'does not resolve problem', because I still can't install.  Bugs
shouldn't be closed until a user acknowledges the fact that yes the fix did
solve his problem.  In my case, no it did not.

Luya - this is a different bug than the original problem.  If you are still
seeing this in F7 test 2, please open a new bug report with the appropriate
details.  Thanks.
