Description of problem: When generating a live image with plymouth-theme-hot-dog in the package set, the non-fatal error for the scriptlet causes Anaconda to fail the build of the live media in livemedia-creator Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 25.20.5-1.fc25 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Add plymouth-theme-hot-dog to a kickstart 2. Attempt to build with livemedia-creator with that kickstart Actual results: Anaconda fails the livemedia build with the following error in the log: 10:57:06,290 ERR anaconda: The following error occurred while installing. This is a fatal error and installation will be aborted. DNF error: Non-fatal POSTIN scriptlet failure in rpm package plymouth-theme-hot-dog Expected results: Live Media is generated. Additional info: This works when targeting Fedora 24 instead of Fedora 25.
anaconda/dnf changed with 2.0 to treat scriptlet errors as fatal. The plymouth-theme-hot-dog seems to do a bunch in scriptlets, it makes a new initramfs, etc. It may not Require everything it's using there and get installed before the package it needs.
We don't have DNF 2.0 in Fedora 25, which is why I'm puzzled why these errors kill the transaction entirely.
yeah, sorry, it was an anaconda change... which I think landed around the time the dnf 2.0 support did, but was not tied to it. In any case the scriptlet(s) need fixing.
Fixed the scriptlets by removing the initramfs rebuild. Rawhide build here: https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=831702 Let me know if that fixes the problem and I'll rebuild for F25, I guess?
This message is a reminder that Fedora 25 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 25. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained.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 '25'. 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 25 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.
Fedora 25 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2017-12-12. Fedora 25 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this bug. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
