Maybe this helps:
# /usr/sbin/firstboot
File "/usr/sbin/firstboot", line 101, in <module>
firstbootWindow(fb)
File "/usr/share/firstboot/firstbootWindow.py", line 150, in __init__
self.loadModules()
File "/usr/share/firstboot/firstbootWindow.py", line 426, in loadModules
loaded = imputil.imp.load_module(module, found[0], found[1], found[2])
File "/usr/share/firstboot/modules/smolt.py", line 10, in <module>
from firstboot.config import *
