Description Paul W. Frields 2006-09-29 12:21:52 UTC
Description of problem:

The expected fedora.css and admonition {tip,warning,note,caution,important}.png
files do not appear in Anaconda's /tmp directory where they are expected by the
release-notes.  When displaying the release-notes in the Anaconda installer, the
style is missing, which is no big deal -- but it's probably a more important bug
that admonitions are not "sticking out" because their notational icons aren't
included in the loader's environment.

When you get a copy of the release notes HTML, can you also get a copy of the
CSS and the stylesheet-images/ directory?  They are very small and should not
cause substantial bloat.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
anaconda-11.1.0.101-1

How reproducible:
Every time

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Run installer (GUI)
2. Load release notes at appropriate point.
3. Examine admonitions and note missing icons.  Messages on tty1 reflect missing
files reported by release notes rendering.
  
Actual results:


Expected results:

Comment 1 Jeremy Katz 2006-09-29 14:50:32 UTC
The problem is that we pull the release notes at runtime from the install source
-- and there's no guaranteed way to be able to pull a whole directory via
HTTP/FTP (directory listings don't have to be allowed by servers) which screws us.

We *cannot* be depending on files external to the release notes file itself for
the release notes.

Closing as CANTFIX per comment #1.
