Description of problem: Geo location isn't working in F37 Anaconda for me: always defaults to en_US (ie English (United States)) Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): anaconda-37.12.2-1.fc37 How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1. boot F37 Live image outside USA 2. check detected default language locale Actual results: English (United States) Expected results: Geo location to work like for F36 (eg anaconda-36.16.5-2.fc36) In my case it should be English (Singapore).
The geo location doesn't seem to always kick in, but I just tested with Fedora-Workstation-Live-x86_64-37_Beta-1.5.iso and I was correctly detected to be in the Czech Republic.
This is unfortunate, but not unexpected. Geolocation was recently modularized and we dropped some waiting, as it did not make any difference during initial testing. Looks like that does matter elsewhere :(
This fixes the problem, enough for f37. https://github.com/rhinstaller/anaconda/pull/4328 For rawhide we'll want to refactor more which isn't needed in f37.
Beta is signed off, so this can't go into it. Moving to proposed Final FE, though of course it can go in before the Final freeze with no FE status needed.
