The offending parts on the screenshot are places where we list kickstart code or commands. Those are the <pre> and <span>/<strong> html tags. Could it be that the widget used in anaconda is not able to show those correctly? The release notes viewer uses the gtkhtml2 Python module, which is pretty limited in what it can and cannot show. Check the gnome-python2-gtkhtml2 package on RHEL-5 for more information on the module's limitations. |
