Comment 1 Chris Murphy 2021-02-27 06:51:15 UTC 
I tried German and can't reproduce it. Can you be more specific? The host is Fedora 33 Workstation? Using virt-manager or GNOME Boxes?

Comment 3 Fedora Blocker Bugs Application 2021-02-27 07:00:37 UTC 
Proposed as a Blocker for 34-beta by Fedora user chrismurphy using the blocker tracking app because:

 * The release must install and boot successfully as a virtual guest in a situation where the virtual host is running the current stable Fedora release. 
* The installer must run when launched normally from the release-blocking images.

Comment 8 Lukas Ruzicka 2021-03-01 12:11:38 UTC 
I could not reproduce this with Czech localisation, I will try the Danish, too.
Comment 9 Vendula Poncova 2021-03-01 13:07:57 UTC 
Anaconda uses the geolocation results to set up the locale in this case, but the bug is reproducible with the boot option 'inst.lang=fo_FO'.
Comment 10 Geoffrey Marr 2021-03-01 16:52:42 UTC 
The decision to classify this bug as an "AcceptedBlocker (Beta)" was made as it violates the following criterion:

"The installer must run when launched normally from the release-blocking images. "
