16:06:45 #info Our purpose in this meeting is to review proposed blocker and nice-to-have bugs and decide whether to accept them, and to monitor the progress of fixing existing accepted blocker and nice-to-have bugs. 16:06:49 #info We'll be following the process outlined at: 16:06:52 #link https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:SOP_Blocker_Bug_Meeting 16:06:52 * adamw back 16:06:55 #info The bugs up for review today are available at: 16:06:57 #link http://qa.fedoraproject.org/blockerbugs/current 16:07:00 #info The criteria for release blocking bugs can be found at: 16:07:02 #link https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_23_Alpha_Release_Criteria 16:07:05 #link https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_23_Beta_Release_Criteria 16:07:08 #link https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_23_Final_Release_Criteria 16:07:48 blockerbugs is taking a long time to laod for me... 16:07:58 works here 16:08:05 same ...2secs tops 16:08:13 kk, got it 16:08:24 we have 2 proposed blockers and 1 proposed FE 16:08:27 first blocker! 16:08:32 #topic (1218787) gdm-wayland-session fails to present login screen after successful installation 16:08:35 #link https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1218787 16:08:37 #info Proposed Blocker, gdm, NEW 16:09:00 same one we rejected for f22 on the grounds it didn't affect enough hardware to be a blocker.. 16:09:22 Southern_Gentlem hgd some sucess with setting the value to false forcing gdm 16:10:28 there's comment 51 about seeing this on a thinkpad as well, so probably not just Mac specific 16:10:48 the question is whether it is the same bug 16:10:54 right 16:11:07 i'm sceptical of comments which say 'seeing this' without details that confirm it's actually 'this' they're seeing 16:11:29 true 16:11:56 we can punt and see if there's a reproducer 16:12:02 #c48 gets the 'oh no' screen, which isn't the same bug, most likely. #c46 needs 'nomodeset'. #c45 has two seats connected to different video adapters. 16:12:16 otoh, I reproduced the oh no screen on my thinkpad t500 as well. but it this very probably a different issue 16:12:20 if bugs could get badges, this one would get one for being punted 16:12:34 :) 16:13:44 it's +1 being strict with the criteria 16:13:55 I think we should ask people seeing "something similar" to report separate bugs with full logs 16:14:04 but until we get more hardware to confirm, I'm still leaning -1 16:14:14 sgtm kparal 16:14:21 as for this particular bug, we still don't see any confirmation it affects more hardware 16:14:51 so I'd stay consistent with F22 decision, until somebody can show otherwise 16:15:18 roshi: no, it's not. there's a subjective 'breadth of impact' test for hardware-related bugs. 16:15:19 a guy in fedora i think had a repro seeing if he comes in 16:15:28 roshi: we can call it -1 and we're entirely within the criteria, as we did for 22 16:15:45 right 16:15:55 -1 16:15:57 Corey84: the initial reporter is plenty responsive, having a person who can reproduce the bug doesn't actually help us much atm 16:16:20 knowing exactly how many people are seeing this exact bug would help us but is likely impossible :/ 16:16:33 I meant being strict with just that criteria - -1 is right within the whole of them 16:16:39 -1 from me 16:16:45 i'd be willing to reconsider this on the grounds that more people are affected than we think, but right now i don't see any solid data indicating that 16:16:46 so its the slice of the pie issue more than anything ? 16:17:15 How do you know if an issue is related to wayland? 16:17:20 Corey84: yeah. so far as *fixing the bug* goes i could do with some input from the devs; for blocker purposes it's kind of a headcount game. having one person who's affected by the bug around doesn't help either much right now 16:17:28 SDGathman: disable it and see if the issue goes away :) 16:17:42 SDGathman: there's a line in /etc/gdm/custom.conf you can uncomment to disable gdm-on-wayland 16:18:00 also if you see the issue with anything other than GDM, it's probably not wayland, because nothing else is configured to use wayland by default. 16:18:04 I disabled in custom.conf, but gnome-shell still crashes (but not MATE or cunnamon) - so that rules out wayland? 16:18:07 proposed #agreed - 1218787 - RejectedBlocker - We still don't see any data indicating this is a wide spread problem. If more hardware profiles can be found to reproduce this bug, please repropose with those datum. 16:18:31 SDGathman: yup - both of those things indicate wayland is likely not involved. 16:18:42 (the fact that shell crashes and that MATE and cinnamon don't.) 16:18:56 roshi: is datum some kind of plural for data? 16:19:02 kparal: it's the opposite 16:19:14 so, he's wrong :) 16:19:15 but "those" indicate plural? 16:19:16 patch 16:19:18 yeah 16:19:28 in Latin, datum is singular, data is plural. 16:19:31 seperate data sets 16:19:54 h/w profile - data sets multiple profiles multi data sets 16:20:11 maybe include request for people with slightly different problems to report them separately, in the patch 16:20:18 proposed #agreed - 1218787 - RejectedBlocker - We still don't see any data indicating this is a wide spread problem. If more hardware profiles can be found to reproduce this bug, please repropose with that data. 16:20:29 +1 agreed 16:20:35 ack 16:20:37 ack 16:20:49 #agreed - 1218787 - RejectedBlocker - We still don't see any data indicating this is a wide spread problem. If more hardware profiles can be found to reproduce this bug, please repropose with that data. 16:20:56 kparal: yeah, i guess i'll add another comment with instructions 16:21:01 ok 16:21:02 who wants to secretarialize? 16:21:03 thanks 16:21:55 nobody, but I can do it :) 16:22:05 OH NO i didn't volunteer in time 16:22:08 how terrible 16:22:11 :D 16:22:18 lol @ adamw 16:22:21 lol 16:22:24 adamw: I can still let you do it, adamw 16:22:43 where's danofsatx ? 16:22:47 if it should broke your heart 16:22:51 he's usually willing to fight over it 16:23:10 that's ok, let me do it 16:23:21 #topic (1220517) Rawhide build of grub2 failing (so #1215839 fix is still not in Rawhide) 16:23:24 #link https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1220517 16:23:26 #info Proposed Blocker, grub2, NEW 16:23:29 * danofsatx is here, studying for RHCE, sorry 16:23:29 thanks kparal :) 16:23:56 so this does still seem to be affecting rawhide, when I got a successful live install last week it had this problem. 16:24:04 meetbot links don't work, hmm 16:24:07 er, that is, it had the issue described in 1215839. 16:24:39 boot.iso still fails this way 16:25:03 todays lives fail earlier 16:25:40 seems a obvious alpha criteria violation as written 16:26:09 satellit: current boot.iso failure has nothing to do with this bug, fwiw. 16:26:10 Corey84: +1 16:26:26 adamw, how not? 16:26:33 lives were working in 0619 16:26:35 boot.iso failing to boot is https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1232411 16:26:41 ah 16:26:51 related bug but not this one 16:26:52 which i've marked as acceptedblocker already under the automatic blocker policy 16:27:00 not really related, no, that's all to do with dracut 16:27:32 +1 16:27:47 the problem that won't be fixed until we get grub2 rebuilt for f23 is that after a live install, the grub.cfg kernel entry doesn't have an initrd16 lines and so the system probably won't boot 16:28:24 proposed #agreed - 1220517 - AcceptedBlocker - This bug is a clear violation of the Alpha criterion: "A system installed with a release-blocking desktop must boot to a log in screen where it is possible to log in to a working desktop using a user account created during installation or a 'first boot' utility." 16:29:10 ack 16:29:28 ack 16:29:37 #agreed - 1220517 - AcceptedBlocker - This bug is a clear violation of the Alpha criterion: "A system installed with a release-blocking desktop must boot to a log in screen where it is possible to log in to a working desktop using a user account created during installation or a 'first boot' utility." 16:29:38 ack 16:29:47 ack 16:29:53 ack 16:30:01 #topic (1222413) It takes a long time for shell to show up on tty2 after do"ctrl+alt+F2" 16:30:04 #link https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1222413 16:30:06 #info Proposed Freeze Exceptions, anaconda, NEW 16:31:14 totally out of the loop on this one 16:32:07 eh, i'm not sure i have a criterion i can cite for Alpha, i guess. 16:32:40 still seems like a pretty bad bug, though. 16:32:44 even if it broke our tests, we don't have a criterion which would require the tests to be functional 16:32:49 unfortunately 16:33:03 we kinda do 16:33:23 I think this is problematic mainly from automation point of view. I think that regular users are not that affected 16:33:31 it's part of that section under the criteria which actually does the work of defining release blocking bugs 16:33:34 " Bug hinders execution of required Beta test plans or dramatically reduces test coverage " 16:33:38 Comment #12 describes a workaround - so it should not be considered as a Freeze Exception - right ? 16:33:38 perhaps "The default system init daemon (e.g. systemd) must be capable of starting, stopping, enabling and disabling correctly-defined services. " 16:33:40 though we don't refer to it much 16:33:46 roshi: nah, that doesn't fit 16:33:58 adamw: ok, good to know 16:34:32 well, if systemd isn't starting services when it should be, I thought it'd intersect with that criteria at least a little 16:34:41 jkurik: eh, a workaround that requires using a kickstart isn't great 16:34:49 but one of the other bugs mentions you can get to a console via tmux commands 16:35:02 isn't the workaround to, well, wait for it? 16:35:18 I guess the "correctly define services" section clears it of that criteria 16:35:36 roshi: i guess it's *possible* there's actually a bug in systemd but i was reading it more that there was some kind of issue with how we try to get the shell started 16:35:40 yeah 16:35:45 you can use alt+tab or ctrl+b 1 16:35:48 danofsatx: 'sometimes a long time is never' 16:35:55 or 2, I don't know 16:36:00 oh, ok 16:36:06 kparal: right, so if that's available i guess i can't really defend it as a blocker. did we note that in commonbugs? 16:36:17 * danofsatx is slacking in not actualy, you know, like, opening the BZ links and stuph 16:36:19 clt+b ? 16:36:31 adamw: I don't see it in commonbugs 16:36:42 Corey84: ctrl+b is tmux command 16:36:49 ah 16:36:52 * adamw edits the summary 16:36:54 ctrl+b 16:36:55 but it is definitely available 16:36:59 not a versed in tmux as i thought 16:37:02 kparal: k, we should probably add it 16:37:10 so, -1 for this, and document in common bugs? 16:37:21 I guess so 16:37:22 for 22 and 23, yeah 16:37:31 due to lack of knowledge withholding this one 16:38:37 proposed #agreed - 1222413 - RejectedFreezeException - This bug doesn't violate any criteria and there are means around this issue. Please document in F22/F23 Common Bugs pages. 16:38:43 ack 16:38:46 ack 16:38:48 ack 16:39:13 #agreed - 1222413 - RejectedFreezeException - This bug doesn't violate any criteria and there are means around this issue. Please document in F22/F23 Common Bugs pages. 16:39:21 #topic Open Floor 16:39:32 that's all we've got - anybody have anything to add? 16:40:28 don't think so, i'm trying to lean on harald to get something done about the busted boot.iso's 16:40:47 nightlies aren't getting 'nominated' at present because of a timing issue between my cron script and the nightly generation process, but i'm intentionally not fixing it until the boot.iso's work :) 16:41:09 * satellit hope we get something to test... 16:41:09 satellit: did you say lives aren't working now either? what's the bug? 16:41:26 stops at linux on boot 16:41:37 oh fun 16:41:44 i guess i'll look into that too :) 16:41:53 0619 worked 16:42:00 kk, thanks - that should make it easier to track down 16:42:52 fun times 16:42:55 anything else? 16:43:33 * roshi sets the fuse... 16:43:37 3... 16:43:50 2... 16:44:09 we're done? 16:44:13 * danofsatx looks up 16:44:16 danofsatx: yeah, not many blockers at this point in the cycle 16:44:17 danofsatx, yup 16:44:20 danofsatx: cherish it while it lasts :P 16:44:25 ^ 16:44:31 hehe 16:44:36 2... 16:45:05 we are not done yet, we need to wait for roshi to finish his countdown first 16:45:13 1.... 16:45:21 1... 16:45:23 :p 16:45:28 thanks for coming folks! 16:45:32 see you next week! 16:45:37 #endmeeting
