Created attachment 1018533 [details]
patch removing the Initial Setup units from the preset file

Description of problem:
The Initial Setup units (TUI and GUI) are marked as enabled in the in the service preset file (/usr/lib/systemd/system-preset/90-default.preset), so they are always enabled once the package containing the unit is installed.

This is an issue when the Initial Setup package is not installed by Anaconda during the initial OS installation but gets installed later, for example as part of a package group. This results in the IS UI interrupting the boot process and waiting for user input. 

Therefore the Initial Setup unit files (initial-setup-graphical.service
and initial-setup-text.service) should be removed from the preset file to prevent this from happening.

NOTE: Removal of the preset won't break cases where the package is installed during the OS installation, because Anaconda makes sure to enable the appropriate IS services.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
219-12.fc23

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. install the "minimal install" environment and don't create a user
2. reboot and check that Initial Setup is not running
3. install the KDE Desktop package group (or any other group that pulls in Initial Setup)
4. reboot

Actual results:
The boot process is interrupted by Initial Setup waiting for user input.

Expected results:
Boot is not interrupted by Initial Setup and it's services are not enabled.

Additional info:
A patch removing the Initial Setup units from the preset file is attached.

Comment 1 Jan Kurik 2015-07-15 14:14:29 UTC
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 23 development cycle.
Changing version to '23'.

(As we did not run this process for some time, it could affect also pre-Fedora 23 development
cycle bugs. We are very sorry. It will help us with cleanup during Fedora 23 End Of Life. Thank you.)

Comment 3 Fedora End Of Life 2016-11-24 11:43:45 UTC
This message is a reminder that Fedora 23 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 23. 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bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained.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 EOL if it remains open with a Fedora  'version'
of '23'.

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.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not 
able to fix it before Fedora 23 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 this bug is closed as described in the policy above.

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.

Comment 4 Martin Kolman 2016-11-24 12:26:00 UTC
Has been fixed long ago.
