Description of problem: %post sections are not executed during installation from a custom spin. The ks.cfg included on the media looks like attachment ks.cfg. The output is anaconda-ks.cfg (also attached) Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): pykickstart-1.29-1.fc8 How reproducible: 1. Compose any media with ks.cfg included on the media, 2. execute installation using ks.cfg on the ISO image / CD-ROM, 3. %post will not be executed, 4. /root/anaconda-ks.cfg has %pre where it should have had %post Actual results: %pre instead of %post in /root/anaconda-ks.cfg, %post not executed. Expected results: Execution of %post, proper /root/anaconda-ks.cfg Additional info:
Created attachment 303920 [details] ks.cfg for anaconda
Created attachment 303921 [details] /root/anaconda-ks.cfg after installation
Can you attach /var/log/anaconda.log to this bug report?
Created attachment 304162 [details] /var/log/anaconda.log (normal loglevel) Providing /var/log/anaconda.log
Attached /var/log/anaconda.log
Testing indicates this is not a problem on F9. Can you please retest there and verify this for us? Thanks.
This doesn't occur in Fedora 9: confirmed
Does not occur on recomposed Fedora 9 either
Still occurs in Fedora 8 though, when including the updates/ repository in the compose. Will try again without the updates/ repository included, see if anything broke something.
No problem when excluding updates/ repository from the compose
If I checkout r1.29-1 and revert commit eda22251023801ff7b969c48d001e28202e6544c, then create a 1.29.1-1.fc8 package off of it and use that to compose the media with, this problem goes away.
Oops, I was talking about pykickstart ;-)
Using Jeroen's rebuilt pykickstart package fixes the problem for me as well.
