patch to fix this issue
Does applying this patch to /usr/lib/anaconda fix the issue?
This will be fixed in anaconda-12.21-1. Took a different approach from Chris' patch. anaconda now has the isys.getAnacondaVersion() function to return the anaconda version number when needed. |
Description of problem: When running anaconda on installed system: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/sbin/anaconda", line 978, in <module> initExceptionHandling(anaconda) File "/usr/lib/anaconda/exception.py", line 93, in initExceptionHandling conf = Config(programName="anaconda", programVersion=os.environ["ANACONDAVERSION"], File "/usr/lib/python2.6/UserDict.py", line 22, in __getitem__ raise KeyError(key) KeyError: 'ANACONDAVERSION' Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): anaconda-12.17-1.fc12.i686 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. mkdir /mnt/nbdroot 2. anaconda --text --rootpath=/mnt/nbdroot --method=http://fedora.nano-box.net/linux/development/i386/os/ Actual results: Traceback Expected results: Anaconda will start in text mode and install packages under /mnt/nbdroot Additional info: The ANACONDAVERSION env variable is set in loader but it's not present when running anaconda on already installed system. This is preventing usage of anaconda to prepare netboot images/chroot. This is a regression against F11 where anaconda is able to start (though it tracebacks at another place, see bug #519665)
