Yeah... I've done a number of builds... probably about 10 - 12 going back before the
Fedora 15 alpha release.  Are you using a local mirror?  I created my own just for the
process and always sync it before doing a build.  Some of my builds have worked fine but
the last couple seem to get stuck during boot.  I think I ran into systemd issues and
outdated kickstarts.

I can tell you that the state of the .ks files in the spin-kicstarts and fedora-kickstarts
(or whatever it is) in Fedora 15 isn't always good... or at least it wasn't last
time I checked.  For example, I base my build off of the KDE kickstarts and the package is
missing one of the files it has an %include for.  The package maintainer (Bruno) told me
to pull the kickstarts from git which I did.  I haven't had a chance to rebuild since
then but it looks more complete.

If there is a temporary package missing at this second... always check the updates-testing
repo... as that might have the missing package.  Sometimes a package accidentally gets
pushed to the main area and a dependency takes longer to get out of testing... which
causes temporary breakage.  I did not investigate the specifics of your particular issue.

TYL,
