  3. (1625645) selinux prevents loading of anything inside /etc/cron.d (adamw, 16:15:30)
    1. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1625645 (adamw, 16:15:30)
    2. Proposed Blocker, cronie, ASSIGNED (adamw, 16:15:30)
    3. AGREED: 1625645 - punt (delay decision) - no criterion has yet been proposed that would cover this, but we are still a bit concerned about it and willing to give it another week for further investigation and potential criteria proposals before rejecting (adamw, 16:37:44)

  4. (1631002) gnome-control-center stuck and starts consume memory abnormally if I try to change the background or lock screen image. (adamw, 16:37:52)
    1. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1631002 (adamw, 16:37:52)
    2. Proposed Blocker, gnome-control-center, NEW (adamw, 16:37:52)
    3. AGREED: 1631002 - punt (delay decision) - this one is a bit marginal as to whether it's bad enough to violate the default application or panel criteria. we will delay the decision to allow time for some more testing by other people to 'find the edges' (adamw, 17:00:20)

  5. (1625142) In Gnome Wayland, forward-key-event does not work well, breaks space key completely (adamw, 17:00:29)
    1. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1625142 (adamw, 17:00:29)
    2. Proposed Blocker, gnome-shell, NEW (adamw, 17:00:29)
    3. AGREED: 1625142 - punt (delay decision) - we'd like some more information on exactly when this happens, and particularly if ibus-typing-booster is used by default for any language, before making a decision (adamw, 17:14:23)

  6. (1629409) switching to tty2 then back to gdm results in hang, gdm must be restarted (adamw, 17:14:29)
    1. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1629409 (adamw, 17:14:29)
    2. Proposed Blocker, gnome-shell, NEW (adamw, 17:14:29)
    3. AGREED: 1629409 - AcceptedBlocker (Final) - we consider this to be infringing "All applications that can be launched using the standard graphical mechanism of a release-blocking desktop after a default installation of that desktop must start successfully and withstand a basic functionality test", with gdm treated as an 'application' and "surviving a VT switch" as "basic functionality" (adamw, 17:27:53)

  7. (1630899) unmounting ISO in Nautilus crashes gnome-shell and kills a wayland session (adamw, 17:28:09)
    1. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1630899 (adamw, 17:28:09)
    2. Proposed Blocker, gnome-shell, NEW (adamw, 17:28:09)
    3. AGREED: 1630899 - AcceptedBlocker (Final) - this is accepted as a violation of "All applications that can be launched using the standard graphical mechanism of a release-blocking desktop after a default installation of that desktop must start successfully and withstand a basic functionality test", unmounting a device seems like 'basic functionality' for nautilus (adamw, 17:34:54)

  8. (1630943) laptop with lid closed and external monitor can't log in to wayland session (adamw, 17:35:06)
    1. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1630943 (adamw, 17:35:06)
    2. Proposed Blocker, gnome-shell, NEW (adamw, 17:35:06)
    3. AGREED: 1630943 - punt (delay decision) - we think this is potentially a blocker, but would like some more data on how common it is first (i.e. tests with other laptops and monitors) (adamw, 17:44:00)

  9. (1626862) Broken Fedora/Windows dualboot (adamw, 17:47:13)
    1. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1626862 (adamw, 17:47:13)
    2. Proposed Blocker, grub2, NEW (adamw, 17:47:13)
    3. AGREED: 1626862 - punt (delay decision) - as this bug seems to be system-specific in some way, we need more information to make a decision. we will ask pjones how frantisek can proceed from here to figure out what the problem is (adamw, 17:55:48)

  10. (1631533) dnf and packagekitd can crash when libdnf swdb is locked by another process (adamw, 17:55:57)
    1. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1631533 (adamw, 17:55:57)
    2. Proposed Blocker, libdnf, NEW (adamw, 17:55:57)
    3. AGREED: 1631533 - RejectedBlocker (Final) - for now, this doesn't seem to actually cause any permanent problems or really impair the system's ability to install software, it's just a transient ugly error. if we find it can cause permanent issues we'll revisit (adamw, 18:18:16)

  11. (1630367) gnome session crashes after a VT switch (on X11 with multiple monitors) (adamw, 18:18:38)
    1. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1630367 (adamw, 18:18:38)
    2. Proposed Blocker, xorg-x11-server, NEW (adamw, 18:18:38)

    2. moving onto accepted blockers (adamw, 18:41:45)
    3. folks are out of time, so we will skip the accepted blocker review for this week, adamw will look through them after the meeting (adamw, 18:42:47)
