As a consequence, Anaconda crashes in Cockpit storage editor in F44 and Rawhide under all environments except Workstation (where it uses Firefox, not slitherer). See bug 2404424#c24 . Reproducer: Run Anaconda on KDE/XFCE/etc Live, go to Storage Editor, pick a partition, click Format. In the dialog, use any drop-down (e.g. Type), and start opening it and selecting values repeatedly. After a couple of tries, Anaconda crashes. Workaround: Before running anaconda, edit /etc/anaconda/profile.d/fedora.conf and change `webui_web_engine = slitherer` to `webui_web_engine = firefox`. Run `liveinst` to start anaconda. So in the latest Rawhide environment I've got, it doesn't crash, but the drop-down flickers and doesn't persist, so I can't select anything. A common issue: https://discussion.fedoraproject.org/t/common-issue/192590 Proposing as F45 beta blocker: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_45_Beta_Release_Criteria#Custom_partitioning (Note that similar bug 2404424 was accepted as a blocker previously). I've submitted an upstream bug to Qt: https://qt-project.atlassian.net/browse/QTBUG-147154 Note we'd like to add an openQA test to prevent future bugs like this, but we kinda can't until this is fixed, as we need the full process to *work* in order to verify the test. https://forge.fedoraproject.org/quality/os-autoinst-distri-fedora/issues/561#issuecomment-794938 +4 in https://forge.fedoraproject.org/quality/blocker-review/issues/2136 , marking accepted.
