Here's the error I'm getting with my Fedora 15 remix with all updates applied as of today: [liveuser@localhost ~]$ /usr/bin/liveinst Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/anaconda-cleanup", line 41, in <module> from pyanaconda.cmdline import InstallInterface File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pyanaconda/cmdline.py", line 25, in <module> import parted File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/parted/__init__.py", line 53, in <module> from partition import Partition File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/parted/partition.py", line 249, in <module> partitionFlag[__flag] = _ped.partition_flag_get_name(__flag) ValueError: Invalid flag provided. localuser:root being added to access control list Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/sbin/anaconda", line 507, in <module> from pyanaconda import kickstart File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pyanaconda/kickstart.py", line 21, in <module> from storage.deviceaction import * File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pyanaconda/storage/__init__.py", line 31, in <module> import parted File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/parted/__init__.py", line 53, in <module> from partition import Partition File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/parted/partition.py", line 249, in <module> partitionFlag[__flag] = _ped.partition_flag_get_name(__flag) ValueError: Invalid flag provided. [liveuser@localhost ~]$ This error was originally reported on the Fedora remix mailing list earlier today: http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/remixes/2011-June/000046.html I'm not sure what else to provide. I'm just trying to install it in a KVM Virtual Machine when I get the error.
Scott, I don't see how your bug is related to this one. Your issue may be that pyparted and parted are out of sync on f15 at the moment. Please open another bug with your details and I'll look into it.
This message is a notice that Fedora 15 is now at end of life. Fedora has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 15. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At this time, all open bugs with a Fedora 'version' of '15' have been closed as WONTFIX. (Please note: Our normal process is to give advanced warning of this occurring, but we forgot to do that. A thousand apologies.) Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, feel free to reopen this bug and simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were unable to fix it before Fedora 15 reached 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 to click on "Clone This Bug" (top right of this page) and open it against that version of Fedora. 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. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
