All attempts to run anaconda on current F28 / Rawhide lives appear to fail. All openQA live install tests failed for recent composes: https://openqa.fedoraproject.org/tests/overview?distri=fedora&version=28&build=Fedora-28-20180301.n.1&groupid=1 https://openqa.fedoraproject.org/tests/overview?distri=fedora&version=Rawhide&build=Fedora-Rawhide-20180301.n.0&groupid=1 and satellit observed the same problem in manual testing. anaconda tries to run and then dies. When run from a console, satellit saw a traceback, he took a screenshot: https://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/File:Livinst_failure_-f28.jpg when run via the 'Welcome' screen the traceback doesn't seem to get logged anywhere, but anaconda.log just ends at: 20:41:20,040 INF dbus.connection: Connecting to a default bus at unix:path=/run/user/1000/bus. and the system logs show this: Mar 01 17:41:20 localhost-live anaconda[2683]: anaconda: dbus.connection: Connecting to a default bus at unix:path=/run/user/1000/bus. Mar 01 17:41:20 localhost-live python3[2683]: detected unhandled Python exception in '/sbin/anaconda' so I'm pretty sure it's the same bug. Proposing as a Beta blocker as an obvious violation of "The installer must run when launched normally from the release-blocking images" - KDE and Workstation lives are release-blocking. https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Basic_Release_Criteria#Installer_must_run
Maybe bug 1551145 is the same bug as this one?

Created attachment 1404107 [details] journal.log Anaconda doesn't create a tb file in /tmp so all there is, is the traceback in the journal.
PR: https://github.com/rhinstaller/anaconda/pull/1369
Discussed at blocker bug meeting [1]: AcceptedBlocker (Beta) - this is an obvious violation of "The installer must run when launched normally from the release-blocking images" [1] https://meetbot-raw.fedoraproject.org/fedora-blocker-review/2018-03-05/
Setting to ON_QA, the anaconda that fixes this made it in just before freeze, so it should be included in the next compose that actually *works*. When we get one of those, we'll be able to see if this is fixed.
Fix confirmed by installing updated anaconda in a live image. Fails to run before the update, runs after.
