Crash report file

Description of problem:
I was trying to install Fedora 17 TC2. After the package selection page it showed a dependency problem in the selected packages. I went back and deselected some packages and pressed next. This time, anaconda crashed.

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Select a number of packages with unresolved dependencies inside package selection page (I selected "Customize Now" in the previous page).
2. Select Next. It'll show an error dialog saying you have dependency problems.  
3. Select Back.
4. Deselect some packages which had dependency problems. 
5. Press Next
  
Actual results:
Anaconda crashes.

Expected results:
It should check package dependencies and start the installation process if everything is OK.

Please attach /tmp/anaconda-tb-* as a single, uncompressed file.  Doing anything else makes it more difficult for us to search bugzilla later.

Could you retry with RC2?

Comment 4 Hedayat Vatankhah 2012-02-18 20:41:43 UTC
I can't reproduce the bug with RC2. It is either because the bug is really solved, or because RC2 has only one dependency problem rather than many problems in TC2.
