Description Shawn Starr 2012-11-11 05:31:28 UTC
Description of problem:

Anaconda aborts install with poor error

"The following error occurred while installing. This is a fatal error and installation will be aborted.

Could not run transaction
"

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Any Fedora 18 build of Anaconda

How reproducible: 100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Set VM image disk size to 5GiB
2. Select GNOME Desktop for install
3. Dialog box pops up that it cannot continue 'transaction error'
  
Actual results:
package.log shows:

various errors (not enough space)

ERR packaging: installing package ibus-typing-booster-0.0.20-1.fc18.noarch needs 77MB on the / filesystem


Expected results:
