I mean, when there's a crash libreport should pop up and offer to

the bug for you. You need to enter bugzilla credentials and then it
automatically files the bug details including uploading all files.
Before it does this, it checks if a bug has already been filed with
this mechanism so that there aren't duplicates filed. It'll tell you
the URL for the found bug. You don't have to check, it does it for
you. If you go to the that bug URL there might be a suggestion how to
work around it.
No, that doesn't work. There is no provision in the libreport popup for
passing through a proxy.
It's a crash. If there isn't already a bug filed then I'd
definitely
say you've hit an edge case.
I agree it's a bug. However, it isn't the bug I originally thought. When
searching, I had missed BZ 1178320. That report has been closed as
NOTABUG although it is exactly my issue. I will now open two BZ reports:
1. Anaconda should fail with a useful message when a required address is
missing.
2. Anaconda should not require --gateway or --nameserver for an
interface with a static configuration. In my case, the static interface
is secondary (it should not have a gateway) and DNS is already provided
by the primary DHCP interface.
