Problem exists in Rawhide as well.
This should be fixed in 2.10.0.
Confirmed, system-config-kickstart-2.10.0-1.fc28 is installable in Rawhide.
So that it does not get lost: system-config-kickstart is not installable in F26 as well.
As it's not installable in F27 too, I used the following to install the Rawhide version of system-config-kickstart in an f27 system: dnf install fedora-repos-rawhide dnf install --nogpg --releasever=rawhide --enablerepo=rawhide system-config-kickstart (Sorry for the --nogpg, but after going from bug 1473241 to bug 1546065 and bug 1438503 and still not making progress, I gave up and just wanted to move on.)
