Description Adam Williamson 2019-01-16 18:21:16 UTC 
Since the Fedora-Rawhide-20190114.n.0 compose, initial-setup fails to run:

initial-setup[881]: initializing threading
initial-setup[881]: Initial Setup crashed due to unhandled exception:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/libexec/initial-setup/initial-setup-graphical", line 7, in <module>
    is_instance = InitialSetup(gui_mode=True)
  File "/usr/lib/python3.7/site-packages/initial_setup/__init__.py", line 147, in __init__
    from pyanaconda.threading import initThreading
ImportError: cannot import name 'initThreading' from 'pyanaconda.threading' (/usr/lib64/python3.7/site-packages/pyanaconda/threading.py)

This is due to https://github.com/rhinstaller/anaconda/commit/2ffdae666114956e9de49263bfcb727f7da58109 , which appeared in anaconda-30.17-1.fc30 , I think.

Proposing as a Beta blocker, as ARM images are all unusable without initial-setup (cannot create a user or set a root password). https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Basic_Release_Criteria#Expected_installed_system_boot_behavior - "A working mechanism to create a user account must be clearly presented during installation and/or first boot of the installed system."

Comment 2 Paul Whalen 2019-01-23 15:23:44 UTC 
Testing initial-setup-0.3.66-1.fc30, initial-setup fails silently after completion:

Comment 3 Martin Kolman 2019-01-23 17:23:01 UTC 
Should be fixed in this PR by vponcova (Thanks!):

https://github.com/rhinstaller/initial-setup/pull/63
Comment 4 Paul Whalen 2019-01-28 20:25:33 UTC 
Confirmed fixed in initial-setup-0.3.67-1.fc30.armv7hl, thanks vponcova and mkolman!
Comment 5 Adam Williamson 2019-01-28 22:32:19 UTC 
If you confirm it we can go ahead and close the bug - I was just waiting for a new Rawhide compose so the openQA test would run.
