Comment 1 Jesse Keating 2011-03-28 22:23:02 UTC
This is probably pungi's fault.  When pungi runs the mkisofs call for the DVD it excludes the boot.iso file (because it's duplicate data and makes the DVD isos even larger).  It does not however manipulate the .treeinfo file.

Is this causing any real problem?  We could fiddle with the file during the DVD creation, it just takes more code.

Comment 2 Hongqing Yang 2011-03-29 02:04:57 UTC
It is definitely not a problem to install from DVD. 
In the .treeinfo, the boot.iso image is listed as below

[images-x86_64]
kernel = images/pxeboot/vmlinuz
initrd = images/pxeboot/initrd.img
boot.iso = images/boot.iso

but there is not boot.iso in images directory

When we do the image sanity test, we will check the exits of all images listed in .treeinfo, the miss of boot.iso will always fail the test.
we would better keep this consistent, remove boot.iso = images/boot.iso from .treeinfo or put boot.iso in images.

Comment 3 Jesse Keating 2011-04-01 18:01:35 UTC
I'm reassigning this to pungi and Dennis Gilmore.  I've asked him to work up a patch on this.

Comment 4 Hongqing Yang 2011-08-02 08:39:04 UTC
This still happens in F16

Comment 5 Fedora Admin XMLRPC Client 2012-02-10 18:58:33 UTC
This package has changed ownership in the Fedora Package Database.  Reassigning to the new owner of this component.

Comment 6 Hongqing Yang 2012-02-13 03:32:17 UTC
reproduced with F17 Alpha TC2

Comment 7 Mike Savage 2013-02-08 18:07:25 UTC
reproduced with F18: Fedora-18-x86_64-DVD.iso

Comment 8 Fedora End Of Life 2013-04-03 14:30:44 UTC
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 19 development cycle.
Changing version to '19'.

(As we did not run this process for some time, it could affect also pre-Fedora 19 development
cycle bugs. We are very sorry. It will help us with cleanup during Fedora 19 End Of Life. Thank you.)

Comment 9 Fedora End Of Life 2015-01-09 16:37:30 UTC
This message is a notice that Fedora 19 is now at end of life. Fedora 
has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 19. It is 
Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no 
longer maintained. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now this bug will
be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '19'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not 
able to fix it before Fedora 19 is end of life. If you would still like 
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version 
of Fedora, you are encouraged  change the 'version' to a later Fedora 
version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

Comment 10 Fedora End Of Life 2015-02-17 13:42:04 UTC
Fedora 19 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2015-01-06. Fedora 19 is
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you
are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the
current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this
bug.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
