Created attachment 370043 [details] Anaconda traceback with german languuage selected Description of problem: Anaconda shows a python traceback when entering time zone selection. This happens only during text installation and if you select a german keyboard layout (and therefore a german locale) during installation. I tracked down the problem until I reached a time zone entry "Europe/Brüssel" (with german umlaut). Anaconda does not seem to be able to deal with this entry. Maybe a UTF-8/ISO-8859 problem. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): FC12 final How reproducible: everytime Steps to Reproduce: 1. start FC12 installation 2. select text mode installation (not VNC) 3. select german keyboard 4. Proceed until anaconda tries to display time zone selection where the crash occurs Actual results: traceback (attached) Expected results: no traceback but display of time zone selection dialog Additional info:
This means, that nobody in Germany is able to use text mode installation.
I checked also "french" which results in the same bug. I think, that text mode for all languages is broken, which use non-ascii characters.
