Another user experienced a similar problem:

Happened after first log in to a clean Rawhide install (from 2014-07-04 boot.iso), with no interaction. May only happen if networking is not working (this was due to https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=811967 ).

Nominating as a Final release blocker, criterion "There must be no SELinux denial notifications or crash notifications on boot of or during installation from a release-blocking live image, or at first login after a default install of a release-blocking desktop." - https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_21_Final_Release_Criteria#SELinux_and_crash_notifications

Comment 14 Kalev Lember 2014-07-18 12:05:55 UTC
I've tried to reproduce this and haven't had much luck so far. Is the crash still happening with latest updates?

Comment 15 Adam Williamson 2014-07-18 15:37:58 UTC
it was a fly-by VM test for me. as noted in my comment I ran into it on a VM boot where networking failed because of a libvirt/dnsmasq issue, so that may have something to do with it.

Comment 16 Kalev Lember 2014-07-19 15:20:03 UTC
I managed reproduce a similar crash on live media with the image locally mounted. PK was looking through the local mounts to see if anything is usable as a local repo and that led to a crash.

The backtrace here is unfortunately not very helpful, anything interesting is <optimized out>, so I can't be 100% sure it's the same crash, but I believe it's likely the same issue.

Comment 17 Adam Williamson 2014-07-19 15:41:10 UTC
Thanks. I did see it several times last night while working on https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1114207 , so it looks like it happens reasonably frequently; so once the fix lands, I'll know whether that got it or not.

Happens when checking for updates in current Rawhide KDE. May also be affecting Workstation, have yet to check.
