smoke11 2nd bug on install

Package: anaconda-18.18
OS Release: Fedora release 18
Comment 16 Tim Flink 2012-10-18 07:25:33 UTC 
I did an install using a smoke test iso (smoke 11 - anaconda-18.18-1), selected autopartitioning and the gnome package set. The traceback appeared while "Configuring installed system" was above the installation progress bar

Package: anaconda-18.18
OS Release: Fedora release 18
Comment 17 Jens Petersen 2012-10-18 08:34:52 UTC 
happened at end of Live install

Package: anaconda-18.18-1.fc18.x86_64
OS Release: Fedora release 18
Comment 18 Brian Lane 2012-10-18 12:33:49 UTC 
The repo needs to have firewalld-0.2.9-1 in it, logs show 0.2.8-1
Comment 19 satellitgo 2012-10-18 13:29:46 UTC 
install to HD from smoke 11 netinstall of mate-desktop worked fine after cold boot despite this error
Comment 20 Jan ONDREJ 2012-10-23 08:25:31 UTC 
I installed today from 18-Beta-TC6 and development tree with same error.
May be some dependency problems of installer? I use kickstart minimal nobase install.
Comment 21 Bastien Nocera 2012-11-20 13:54:47 UTC 
1. Boot F18 TC8 Live CD
2. Update anaconda to fix a bunch of bugs (firewalld 0.2.9 gets installed).
3. Install
4. Get above error because the image has firewalld 0.2.7 and the updated anaconda uses firewalld 0.2.9 (with the firewall-offline-cmd command).

anaconda should pick up the updated packages from the live system.

Please attach the complete /tmp/anaconda-tb-* file to this bug report.

Comment 24 Bastien Nocera 2012-11-21 12:58:38 UTC 
Work-around is to not put in the root password during the installation, and:
- start a terminal
- su
- chroot /mnt/sysimage
- ln -s /bin/true /usr/bin/firewall-offline-cmd
- close terminal
- put in root password
- click continue
Comment 25 Chris Lumens 2012-11-21 16:02:43 UTC 
If /mnt/sysimage/usr/bin/firewall-offline-cmd does not exist, that means /usr/bin/firewall-offline-cmd on the live cd does not exist, which means that there's a problem composing the live images.  They will need logs to see what's going on with that, but I'm sure they can find them.

It exists on the liveCD's memory image, because the new anaconda pulled in the version of firewalld that supports it. It's not on the disk image that anaconda uses to dd to the destination partition.

It wasn't there in the live images because it didn't exist. There wasn't a new enough anaconda to need it either.

The problem is that those sort of problems exist when one needs to upgrade anaconda to make it work (it failed to start as I had a wireless card).
Comment 27 Chris Lumens 2012-11-21 16:49:06 UTC 
The file absolutely must exist on the disk image, not in memory.  That is how live installs work, and how they have always worked.  We simply copy the exact contents of the disk image to your target drives.  These sorts of issues should not be overly common because we do not change requires all that often, and certainly more frequent tree composition should help minimize the risk even more.  Sorry, but I don't really see what we can do here aside from try to push people into running the absolute latest tree.
