With this patch we can now save anaconda tracebacks to usb keys. I build pyparted but didn't test the patch extensively. > Comments are greatly appreciated. This significantly changes the semantics of the next_partition() API call. While there aren't a lot of cases where you care about the non-active partitions, there are a few. I think that actually the right fix for the bug is probably something along the lines of (completely untested) diff --git a/partedUtils.py b/partedUtils.py index 573bf4c..22bccb6 100644 --- a/partedUtils.py +++ b/partedUtils.py @@ -1362,7 +1362,7 @@ class DiskSet: drives = [] for d in isys.removableDriveDict().items(): - func = lambda p: not p.get_flag(parted.PARTITION_RAID) and not p.get_flag(parted.PARTITION_LVM) and p.fs_type.name in ["ext3", "ext2", "fat16", "fat32"] + func = lambda p: p.is_active and not p.get_flag(parted.PARTITION_RAID) and not p.get_flag(parted.PARTITION_LVM) and p.fs_type.name in ["ext3", "ext2", "fat16", "fat32"] disk = self.disks[d[0]] parts = filter_partitions(disk, func) You have to ensure that the partition is an active one before doing any of get_flag or fs_type, etc. Yeah, it's a little ugly, but it's a part of the API and until we completely replace it, I think we have to live with it Jeremy _______________________________________________ Anaconda-devel-list mailing list Anaconda-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/anaconda-devel-list
