[Bug 1696936] [NEW] kickstart installation ignores %end tags

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

When installing Ubuntu using Kickstart the Kickstart interpreter does
not follow the official Kickstart syntax:

"The %packages, %pre, %pre-install, %post, %onerror, and %traceback sections are all required to be closed with %end"
https://pykickstart.readthedocs.io/en/latest/kickstart-docs.html#creating-the-kickstart-file

Ubuntu can not handle %end tags. Example:

[...]
%packages
git
%end

Results in %end being interpreted as package: "Can not find package
%end"

I tested this with Ubuntu 16.04

Cheers,
Jan
