At one point I was able to find a workaround but was much too frustrated at the time to file a bug report, I regret it. I hope this will greatly help whoever owns this bug: http://lynxlee.blogspot.com/2011/05/cannot-find-7z-fedora-liveusb-creator.html it's as simple as it doesn't work if it is not installed in the default programs directory. For a tool that is supposed to be the first impression for would-be Fedora users it's disheartening that it's been like this for 2+ years now. I believe I fixed this issue in https://fedorahosted.org/liveusb-creator/changeset/18aad7c1d32892c565c816fe4977dabe98779a4d I'm spinning up a fresh Windows virtual machine to compile a new release. https://fedorahosted.org/releases/l/i/liveusb-creator/liveusb-creator-3.12.0-beta-setup.exe This beta should work when the liveusb-creator is installed to non-default locations. Testers appreciated! If this does the trick, I'll do an official release shortly. Works on my system installing to anywhere now! looking at the diff quickly, wouldn't: paths = [os.path.join(os.path.dirname(__file__), '..', '..'), '.'] mean you don't need this line anymore?: paths = [os.path.join(x, folder) for x in (prgmfiles, prgmfiles + ' (x86)')] @Luke, I can confirm the beta working after previously having the issue with 3.11.1. Fedora 15 USB disk created properly. This message is a notice that Fedora 14 is now at end of life. Fedora has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 14. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At this time, all open bugs with a Fedora 'version' of '14' have been closed as WONTFIX. (Please note: Our normal process is to give advanced warning of this occurring, but we forgot to do that. A thousand apologies.) Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, feel free to reopen this bug and simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were unable to fix it before Fedora 14 reached end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged to click on "Clone This Bug" (top right of this page) and open it against that version of Fedora. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping |
