Looks like the install was done from a live image:

11:47:30,414 INFO anaconda: anaconda called with cmdline =
['/sbin/anaconda', '--liveinst',
'--method=livecd:///dev/mapper/live-osimg-min', '--lang', 'en_US.UTF-8']

so that's likely the cause (extlinux package isn't on the lives either).
Adding it to anaconda-tools would cause it to be added to the lives,
but...

...2MB is OK for the DVD, I think, but the desktop live is *very* close
to its limit. I'll do a test compose and see if we can squeeze extlinux
in there safely or not.
