From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.12) Gecko/20050923 Fedora/1.7.12-1.5.1 Description of problem: ssh'd to a machine here and running Kadischi with the --graphical switch, brings up the Anaconda window and I choose my language, English. Click forward and it says: "An error occurred when attempting to load an installer interface component. className = KeyboardWindow" So I click exit, and in the shell I'm in I also see this: *** running anaconda *** Probing for video card: S3 Inc. 86c325 [ViRGE] Probing for monitor type: Unknown monitor Starting graphical installation... No module named firstboot_module_window *** anaconda has finished the job *** The Anaconda parts are "No module named firstboot_module_window". The rest of that output is what Kadischi would say. So I'm imagining this wasn't supposed to happen, though Anaconda runs under text mode just fine. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): anaconda-10.91.7-1 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. kadischi --graphical /pub/development /tmp/rawhide00.iso 2. Anaconda graphical windows appear. 3. Choose Language, click Next. Actual Results: The module firstboot_module_window caused Anaconda to produce an error. Expected Results: Graphical install of LiveCD should have continued, and finish correctly. This however isn't special to this setup, I do not believe. Additional info: No additional information at this time.
Does your stage2 tree have /usr/share/firstboot/firstboot_module_window.py in it?
Yes, stage2.img has this module, I looked into this further and upon discovering firstboot_module_window.py belongs to firstboot package and firstboot_gui_window.py is deprecated I suppose this isn't an Anaconda issue anymore. I did however discover /usr/lib/anaconda/iw/package_gui.py was in stage2.img but not on disk though I do have anaconda-10.91.8-1 package installed, which is in fact an update from 10.91.7-1. Maybe this bug report is relevant after all? :-D
I just updated Anaconda to 10.91.11-1 and package_gui.py is now present. I know this is a mundane sort of "bug", but surely this file was supposed to be included! Looks like it is fixed. I'll be sure to report any other anomalies I find! Thanks for your time.
