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. Additional info:
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.
