      What were you trying to do that didn't work?

      im installing CentOS Stream 9 using kickstart. i have a line in the %packages section that is only a comment

      Please provide the package NVR for which bug is seen:

      anaconda-34.25.3.8-1.el9

      How reproducible:

      100%

      Steps to reproduce

      1. create kickstart config having at least one line in the %packages section that is only a comment:
      [...]
%packages --ignoremissing --excludedocs
@Base
@Core
curl
gzip
# remove firmware
-alsa-tools-firmware
-aic94xx-firmware
-atmel-firmware
-b43-openfwwf
[...]
%end
[...]
      1. start installation using that kickstart config
      2. Anaconda crashes shortly after starting

      Expected results

      installation continues OR installation aborts with error message about invalid packages list

      Actual results

      anaconda crashes with signal 11:
