[BUG] Install to Disk (from Welcome screen) fails in do_startup_wl_actions() at pyanaconda/display.py

[yuravk]

Doing "Install to Disk", from our AlmaLinux 10 custom made Live Media's "Welcome Screen", causes system immediate reboot.

I was able to determine the XDG_RUNTIME_DIR environment variable is not defined.

The following anaconda packages were used in the Live Media:

anaconda-widgets-40.22.3.13-1.el10.alma.1.x86_64
anaconda-tui-40.22.3.13-1.el10.alma.1.x86_64
anaconda-core-40.22.3.13-1.el10.alma.1.x86_64
anaconda-gui-40.22.3.13-1.el10.alma.1.x86_64
anaconda-40.22.3.13-1.el10.alma.1.x86_64
kdump-anaconda-addon-006-16.20220714git7ca2d3e.el10.noarch
anaconda-install-env-deps-40.22.3.13-1.el10.alma.1.x86_64
anaconda-live-40.22.3.13-1.el10.alma.1.noarch

We do only branding related patching to anaconda.

gdm packages version is 47.0.

Hi @yuravk, is this already fixed with the newest version. There were a multiple fixes merged to fix issues on Wayland after switching Anaconda to Wayland native app. Fixes like:
#6018
#5946

Hi @jkonecny12 ,

Thanks for the replay.
I believe the 5995 is something I need.

Sorry, I missed it is Alma linux. It should be merged during the next week.
