I'm sorry, but I cannot reproduce the issue. I have a VM with an existing F23 installation - autopart, single disk, two partitions (/boot and an LVM PV). With F23 Alpha RC2 I do: # dnf -y update anaconda python3-blivet && liveinst and everything works as expected. Adam, could you please test this again and maybe provide some more information about the reproducer? Thanks!
Hmm, indeed tried again and it didn't happen. I don't recall the precise circumstances of the earlier failure though. Let's close for now and I can reopen if I manage to make it happen again.
