Description ctolley 2001-08-09 17:57:28 EDT 
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/4.76 [en] (X11; U; Linux 2.4.2-2smp i686)

Description of problem:
Whether starting via the X menu item (Program -> System -> Kickstart
Configurator) or via command-line:

/usr/sbin/ksconfig

ksconfig returns the following error:

Traceback (innermost last):
  File "/usr/share/ksconfig/ksconfig.py", line 387, in ?
    timeCombo.list.select_item(select)
NameError: select

I'm not a Python programmer, but I gambled and commented out line 387 and
the application started, and appears to create valid kickstart config
files, but I don't know the overall impact of leaving that line commented
out.

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install Kickstart 1.2-1 and ksconfig 1.2-1 via rpm
2. From X, choose Kickstart Configurator from (Programs -> System ->
Kickstart Configurator), or invoke from a terminal program (Eterm or xterm,
etc.).
3. Invoking from a terminal client lets you immediately see the error msg,
or you can CTRL-ALT-F1 over to the 1st TTY to see the error there.


Actual Results:  Traceback (innermost last):
  File "/usr/share/ksconfig/ksconfig.py", line 387, in ?
    timeCombo.list.select_item(select)
NameError: select


Expected Results:  Either provide an updated package, patch or snippit of
code that will correct this error.

This is a dupe of bug #37753.  You have found a correct workaround.  I could
provide you a fix, but it would just consist of the same change that you made. 
You sound like a Python programmer to me.  ;)

Anyway, ksconfig has gone through a major rewrite in regards to interface and
things like that.  The next release will not have this problem.
