Description Chris Ricker 2002-03-08 04:05:53 UTC
Sorry for the lack of a traceback -- I don't have a floppy around.

When doing a TUI install, pressing <F1> in the "Package Group Selection" screen
crashes anaconda.

Comment 1 Chris Ricker 2002-03-08 04:09:10 UTC
<F1> in general seems to crash.  Pressing it while within package selection dies
as well.

The error I'm getting is an "Exception Occurred".  The Traceback is

file /usr/lib/anaconda/text.py, line 198, in helpWindow
    while not string.strip(l[0]):
IndexError: list index out of range

The text files in anaconda-help are all zero-length... looking into it

Comment 3 Jeremy Katz 2002-03-11 22:33:38 UTC
Fixed

Comment 4 Chris Ricker 2002-03-23 07:31:33 UTC
Beta3 has all this working....
