Description Pino Toscano 2018-12-07 11:55:02 UTC

Description of problem:
augeas cannot parse the Anaconda user interaction configuration file /etc/sysconfig/anaconda.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
augeas-libs-1.4.0-6.el7
augeas-1.4.0-6.el7

Steps to Reproduce:
1. install RHEL using Anaconda (manual or automated installation)
2. check that /etc/sysconfig/anaconda is present in the system
3. augtool print /augeas//error | grep anaconda
4. augtool print /files/etc/sysconfig/anaconda/

Actual results:
- step #3 prints (error position depends on the actual file):
/augeas/files/etc/sysconfig/anaconda/error = "parse_failed"
/augeas/files/etc/sysconfig/anaconda/error/pos = "73"
/augeas/files/etc/sysconfig/anaconda/error/line = "3"
/augeas/files/etc/sysconfig/anaconda/error/char = "0"
/augeas/files/etc/sysconfig/anaconda/error/lens = "/usr/share/augeas/lenses/dist/shellvars.aug:194.12-.60:"
/augeas/files/etc/sysconfig/anaconda/error/message = "Syntax error"
- step #4 prints nothing

Expected results:
- step #3 prints nothing
- step #4 prints the parsed tree, for example:
/files/etc/sysconfig/anaconda
/files/etc/sysconfig/anaconda/#comment = "This file has been generated by the Anaconda Installer 21.48.22.147-1"
/files/etc/sysconfig/anaconda/ProgressSpoke
/files/etc/sysconfig/anaconda/ProgressSpoke/visited = "1"

Comment 3 YongkuiGuo 2018-12-20 02:42:31 UTC

Verified with packages:
augeas-1.4.0-9.el7.x86_64
augeas-libs-1.4.0-9.el7.x86_64

Steps:

1. Make sure that /etc/sysconfig/anaconda is present in the system

2. 
# augtool print /files/etc/sysconfig/anaconda/
/files/etc/sysconfig/anaconda
/files/etc/sysconfig/anaconda/#comment = "This file has been generated by the Anaconda Installer 21.48.22.115-1"
/files/etc/sysconfig/anaconda/WelcomeLanguageSpoke
/files/etc/sysconfig/anaconda/WelcomeLanguageSpoke/visited = "1"
/files/etc/sysconfig/anaconda/StorageSpoke
/files/etc/sysconfig/anaconda/StorageSpoke/visited = "1"
/files/etc/sysconfig/anaconda/SoftwareSelectionSpoke
/files/etc/sysconfig/anaconda/SoftwareSelectionSpoke/visited = "1"
/files/etc/sysconfig/anaconda/PasswordSpoke
/files/etc/sysconfig/anaconda/PasswordSpoke/visited = "1"

3.
# augtool print /augeas//error | grep anaconda
The command above prints nothing.

Augeas now can be able to read `/etc/sysconfig/anaconda`.
