If user is created during anaconda setup, g-i-s does not run. Please see the additional comment below and ignore the description part in the cloned bug.


+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1947788 +++

Description of problem: Did the f34 WS installation (vm, ja_JP locale) with network installation method. Observed that gnome-initial-setup did not run after first time login. Same issue was observed when installation done using with boot.iso. Tried reboot many times but did not help.

However when the installation was done using live image, g-i-s ran properly.

F34 live image - http://download.eng.pnq.redhat.com/fedora/linux/development/34/Workstation/x86_64/iso/Fedora-Workstation-Live-x86_64-34-20210408.n.0.iso

Checked it again and found that if user is created during anaconda setup, the g-i-s does not run after installation. If user is not created during anaconda, g-i-s runs properly. 

For CJK locales, if g-i-s does not run, then the default input method is not set accordingly. These locales require input method to be set along with the keyboard for input in native language. In that case user manually needs to select the IM from settings.

Updating the summary accordingly and also cloning it for RHEL-9.
