Public bug reported:

When attempting to install Groovy to a zVM (s5lp1-gen02) the Subiquity
installer reports an error after fcp devices are selected and the
partition layout is confirmed. The iso image used was from October 21,
2020. Dropping to the shell the following traceback is found in
/var/log/syslog:
