Created attachment 755244 [details] anaconda.log Description of problem: Anaconda tries to fire off a Gtk program while in text mode on the second request to the user for a "package does not exist yes/no" answer. The installer appears to try to fire up tui-based widgets but explodes with tracebacks. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 19 development - 2013-05-30 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create a kickstart that answers all install questions and lists more than 1 package that does not exist in any repo. 2. Start a text mode install 3. Answer "yes" to the first text query about missing packages Actual results: Console reports that X is not running and is needed by Gtk. Then a pile of tracebacks about progressbars, simpleline, hubs and other tui functions from python. Expected results: Either a graceful switch to a tui/curses interface in text mode or a second/third/fourth text-only yes/no question. Additional info:
