Description of problem: on my system "system-config-network-cmd" aborts with the following error: ------------------------ root@:~# system-config-network-cmd An unhandled exception has occured. This is most likely a bug. Please file a detailed bug report against the component system-config-network at https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla using the text below. Component: system-config-network Version: 1.4.3 Summary: TB /usr/share/system-config-network/netconfpkg/NCDeviceList.py:102:load:NameError: global name 'netconfpkg' is not defined Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/sbin/system-config-network-cmd", line 281, in main devlists = [getDeviceList(), getHardwareList(), File "/usr/share/system-config-network/netconfpkg/NCDeviceList.py", line 302, in getDeviceList __DVList.load() File "/usr/share/system-config-network/netconfpkg/NCDeviceList.py", line 102, in load profilelist = netconfpkg.NCProfileList.getProfileList() NameError: global name 'netconfpkg' is not defined ---------------------------------- Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): system-config-network-tui-1.4.3-1.fc8.noarch.rpm How reproducible: - on one of my systems 100%, but depends on the network interface configuration Additional info: The reason is, that on this system the code path in /usr/share/system-config-network/netconfpkg/NCDeviceList.py, line 321 is used, which is not always the case (it has something to do with interface nicknames). profilelist = netconfpkg.NCProfileList.getProfileList() But netconfpkg.NCProfileList isn't imported, so python will throw the mentioned exception. The fix is rather simple and non-invasive: just import the correct python package. I've attached a patch. It would be great if the patch could be applied and an update for F8 could be pushed out. Thanks!
