IoT 42 installer images since Fedora-IoT-42-20241018.0 boot to text mode with error "Wayland startup failed, falling back to text mode" #66

Open pcdubs opened 3 weeks ago

Describe the bug From: https://pagure.io/fedora-iot/issue/61

anaconda was recently ported to Wayland. Apparently IoT needs some sort of adjustment for this (some package missing?), because since it happened, IoT images boot to text mode, with an error "Wayland startup failed, falling back to text mode". See e.g. https://openqa.fedoraproject.org/tests/2971030#

After reproducing the problem it looks like /usr/libexec/anaconda/run-in-new-session is failing because python3-pam package is missing:

Fixed by osbuild/bootc-image-builder#707

@mmartinv I'm a bit confused by the fix...

I thought the Anaconda ISO for IoT 42 is built by osbuild, not b-i-b?

miabbott commented 1 week ago

Also, if anaconda-core requires python3-pam, shouldn't we also be fixing this in the spec file for anaconda?

Looks like it is there for rawhide, but not for 41 - https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/anaconda/blob/rawhide/f/anaconda.spec#_273

My fault, I was able to reproduce the same issue while creating the anaconda ISO with b-i-b and I assumed the image was also built with b-i-b which is obviously not the case.

Yes, that's something that I have been investigating.

Well, I don't think the problem is actually fixed in rawhide: The python3-pam dependency was added to the anaconda-install-img-deps package and in my opinion it should have been added to anaconda-core package because it's the package that contains /usr/libexec/anaconda/run-in-new-session.

I think we need to discuss this with anaconda guys.

Good call out; I missed that the Requires was for a different sub-package.

Looks like the Anaconda folks use Bugzilla, so let's open an bug with them to discuss.

@pcdubs I am a bit confused, how is Fedora-IoT-42 anaconda ISO generated? I don't see fedora-42 nor fedora-rawhide in the list of osbuild supported images

If you define a repository configuration in osbuild-composer as fedora-42.json, it will enable building F42 images using the Fedora definitions (with the version range checks in the code). If there's any special conditions needed for F42 (package list changes, for example), they need to be added in the pkg/distro/fedora/ package in osbuild/images.
