This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 11 development cycle. Changing version to '11'. More information and reason for this action is here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
We just did a quick test here and were unable to reproduce this error. All attempts to resize a RAID member or the filesystem on top of the RAID member were prevented by anaconda. Can you outline the UI steps you took that led to this traceback? Thanks.
I can't say for sure that I remember accurately (perhaps Anaconda should log UI events?), but I'll try. Here's what I remember. I had 2 disks: sda and sdb. I put /boot on sda, and used the remaining space to create two software RAID members - one on each disk. I then created a RAID0 array from the two members and indicated that it should be formatted btrfs. When I clicked on Forward, I was warned that I'd forgotten to create a swap partition. So I hit Cancel (or whatever the "go back" button is called in that dialog) and attempted to resize the member that was on sdb. Traceback.
But whatever happened, I suspect that MDRaidMember should not simply be missing attributes; otherwise you'll have to constantly catch AttributeErrors.
Closing this as insufficient data, as no reproduction instructions have been provided (and the last comment is more then 6 months old).
