no flags Details

Description Andrew Bartlett 2007-02-07 23:06:33 UTC
Description of problem:
When manually entering an external repository, if the URL is syntaxtily valid,
but incorrect, ananconda faults

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


How reproducible:
only tried once

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install (I installed from PXE boot to a HTTP exported mounted DVD tree)
2. Select an additional repository 
3. Enter URL with an invalid path component

http://mirror.internode.on.net/pub/fedora/linux/development/extras/i386 instead of
http://mirror.internode.on.net/pub/fedora/linux/extras/development/i386

Actual results:
warns about an invalid group file (no package selections), but permits
installaction to proceed to the backtrace (to be attached)

Expected results:
Installation should simply warn that the repository is invalid, and refuse to
proceed

This was only a problem because you were going back to the task selection screen
from the confirmation screen.  This will be fixed in the next build of anaconda.
 Thanks for the report.
