Description of problem: When "Privacy" tab is confirmed by clicking "Next" button, gnome session crashes and login page appears. After next log in, gnome-initial-setup appears again. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Version : 3.24.0 Release : 1.fc26 Architecture: x86_64 How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1. Log in to Fedora for the first time 2. Keep clicking next in gnome initial setup 3. Actual results: It crashes after privacy tab is confirmed Expected results: Additional info:
I'm seeing a crash very similar to this. My crash trace is: https://retrace.fedoraproject.org/faf/reports/1720715/ In gnome-initial-setup-3.24.2-1.fc26 and fc27. Note with a wayland session, when gnome-shell crashes the whole session dies and you have to log back in, and face the crash again. At least with Xorg, gnome-shell just restarts and moves on to the online accounts view.
I too got this crash at Privacy page only. The only easy workaround I found is to boot into Gnome Xorg session complete the gnome-initial-setup and then logout and login into the Wayland session.

Same. I can confirm the fix listed in bug 1443206 (install libgweather-3.24.0-2.fc26) resolves this issue. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 1443206 ***
