Description of problem: [Sorry for my 'Not-Smart' report: I'm not familiar with the manner of the Formal (Bugzilla) Error Report. 'Cause this is the first time for me to report to you; redhat. I found the "Exception" window telling to "save and report the crush-dump to system-config-kickstart @ https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla" when I "1st-start"ed the "System-kickstart" under running OOo(Debugging macro), Kate, Konqueror, ksysguard, kwikdisk. So, I've decided to report and reached this page. Everything is new to me, I might make mistakes in the "manner of report" if I force myself to fit all of your "High" way (in the level) = the elegant way. Forgive me to report the Minimum-Information in my way. ] Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3.

*** Bug 426991 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
This traceback will be replaced by an error dialog in the next build of system-config-kickstart, though I am curious as to what is going on with your repo configs that would be causing this problem.
