After installation of latest phoebe on my Dell Latitude C400
laptop, firstboot open an error window which says to report the

Previous version of phoebe worked fine.

    self.setupScreen()
  File "/usr/share/firstboot/modules/date.py", line 64, in setupScreen
    self.datePage = date_gui.datePage(self.dateBackend)
  File "/usr/share/redhat-config-date/date_gui.py", line 171, in __init__
