Comment 12 Adam Williamson 2014-04-29 19:35:50 UTC 
This seems to be a reproducible crash of gnome-initial-setup in current Fedora Rawhide, when you install without creating a user account (so g-i-s prompts you to). It crashes after you enter a username, so at the point where it should ask you for a password.

For me, it worked the second time through - when I rebooted the system and re-ran g-i-s entering the same username, this time the password page appeared and I was able to complete initial setup. But with a fresh install I was able to reproduce the crash on the first run of g-i-s, so it happened two out of two attempts on the first run of g-i-s.

Proposing as a Beta blocker, but I think I just noticed an oversight in the criteria. For Alpha, we require only *either* the installer user creation mechanism *or* the firstboot one to work. I think for Beta we intended to require both to work, but didn't remember to. We can kick this around in a review meeting or on test@, but we do need to keep track of the bug.

I reproduced this with current Rawhide, just to be clear - the 2014-04-28 nightly.

better traceback (I hope)

here's (hopefully) a better traceback I got manually out of gdb. Jasper says the one attached by the OP via abrt was not good.
Comment 15 Matthias Clasen 2014-07-25 11:44:56 UTC 
Please try gnome-initial-setup-3.12.1-3.fc21. It has a likely fix
Comment 16 Adam Williamson 2014-07-25 15:18:32 UTC 
I already did, see https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1116478 , guess I forgot to dupe these two. Pretty sure they were the same memory corruption. Thanks.
