Description of problem: If one waits long enough in the 'welcome screen' when one clicks 'accept fate' and enters the 'main hub' it is unresponsive until CLOSEST MIRROR is setup by INSTALLATION SOURCE. It is annoying but it also seems to be harmless. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): F18 (smoke5) anaconda: 18.37 How reproducible: always, if one waits on the welcome screen long enough Steps to Reproduce: 0. Boot anaconda and reach the 'welcome screen' WAIT SOME TIME (+10 MIN) IN THE 'welcome screen' 1. 'Accept Fate' Anaconda is unresponsive until INSTALLATION SOURCE finishes configuring CLOSEST MIRROR (this is a netinstall iso) In this case, i had to wait only 2 MIN for it (since i had to make a phone call), but normally it takes quite some time for the CLOSEST MIRROR to be setup. (100kib/s connection). Actual results: anaconda is unresponsive until INSTALLATION SOURCE finishes setting up CLOSEST MIRROR. It is not possible to enter STORAGE INSTALLATION DESTINATION Expected results: setting up CLOSEST MIRROR should not make the UI lag nor make it unresponsive, even for a 'short' moment. Additional info:
I think we see this everywhere, not just in the welcome screen. I know I've seen big pauses when doing what should be quick actions on storage, for instance.
Reartes, can you reproduce this with current F19 builds? It's marked as having been fixed in anaconda 19.10. Thanks!
I appears to have been fixed.
Great! Thanks.
