Description Frantisek Hanzlik 2013-02-26 12:24:58 UTC
Description of problem:
s-c-k crashes when clicking on 'Help' button
it seems as s-c-k spawn htmlview for help displaying - but package has not dependencies for it. Moreover, it appears as htmlview now not exist in F18.

OT: Personally I wote for including htmlview back to distro, it was providing standard interface to browser launching. Or is there some instead?

Comment 3 Chris Lumens 2013-03-22 14:05:14 UTC
For now, I'm just going to remove this documentation.  I realize that's not the best thing to do, but:

(1) It hasn't been updated in years, and is likely pretty out of date.  We have better kickstart-specific documentation on the wiki.

(2) As you mentioned, /usr/bin/htmlview doesn't exist anymore and I don't really have enough time at the moment to search for alternatives.

(3) It wasn't even translated, which is not very good from a finish standpoint.

Comment 4 Fedora End Of Life 2013-12-21 15:44:58 UTC
This message is a reminder that Fedora 18 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 18. It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time
this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 
'version' of '18'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 18's end of life.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be 
able to fix it before Fedora 18 is 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  change the 'version' to a later Fedora 
version prior to Fedora 18's end of life.

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.
