First Setup not running properly in another created admin user.

[ertaboy356b]

First Setup is not 'installing' when ran on another created admin user.

Steps to reproduce.

1. After Install, run First Setup on main user.
2. After the First Setup did its thing, create new admin user.
3. Login to that admin user.
4. Since the newly created admin user didn't have apps or a flatpak repository, run First Setup again in that user.
5. The First Setup will get stuck in Installing.

Can you provide some logs?

It shouldn't happen in the latest version, I'll check. Are you using the r6 ISO?

[ertaboy356b]

Yeah, I'm using R6 when I installed it last Sunday.

Seems to be the issue.

Creating this file (empty) runs the installer successful.

I ran into the same issue creating another unprivileged user on

$ lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID:	Ubuntu
Description:	VanillaOS 22.10 all
Release:	22.10
Codename:	kinetic

And I confirm touching the file `` solves this issue. Thanks a lot!
