While testing the latest http://jgranado.fedorapeople.org/storage/testing/updates-i586.img with rawhide, I can confirm this issue is no longer present. This bug is safe to close once the patch is added to an anaconda build. I am now seeing bug#491746
Should be fixed in the next anaconda build (anaconda-11.5.0.37-1).
closing as the fix has been tested, per comment #3 - it was just added after the test. -- Fedora Bugzappers volunteer triage team https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers
