Hide Forgot
Description of problem: I simply am not able to type non-ASCII letters into my drive passphrase anymore. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Happens in Anaconda of the current Fedora 28-1.1 Silverblue image from getfedora.org. Steps to Reproduce: * Just type some non-ASCII letters (like for example a commonplace `§`) into the disk passphrase request. Actual results: You can’t click “continue” anymore. Expected results: A warning like what is done for the same thing in user and root passphrase requests would be ok. But I don’t want to be disallowed to type in non-ASCII letters, that’s pretty Windows-ish.
Hello, Could you please provide us logs from the installation as plain text files? You can find them in /tmp/*.log. Thank you.
There are no logs, since I rebooted since. But you should find this requirement in the anaconda sources…?
Any news on this? This is very annoying and I do not understand why you do weaken security…?!
Fixed in a pull request: https://github.com/rhinstaller/anaconda/pull/1795
Thank you very much! By the way, there is also the little bit related bug #1582345, in which I described that the keymap is set up wrong at entering the password, if you don’t use a standard keymap. I don’t know if my set keymap is standard German or standard Englisch – but if ifs the latter, we also cannot enter umlauts in the password dialog (which are pretty common in Germany). Can you maybe also take a look at this? I already tried to set `vconsole.keymap=de-neo` in the kernel command line, but bricked my boot partition when regenerating grub config. :/
I will try to look at it.
That would be really awesome! 🤗
This message is a reminder that Fedora 28 is nearing its end of life. On 2019-May-28 Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 28. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained.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 '28'. 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 28 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 28 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2019-05-28. Fedora 28 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates.
