  3. proposed Final Freeze Exceptions (adamw, 16:16:09)
  4. (2045329) dxvk-native: FTBFS in Fedora rawhide/f37 (adamw, 16:16:31)
    1. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2045329 (adamw, 16:16:31)
    2. https://pagure.io/fedora-qa/blocker-review/issue/976 (adamw, 16:16:32)
    3. Proposed Freeze Exceptions, dxvk-native, MODIFIED (adamw, 16:16:36)
    4. Ticket vote: FinalFreezeException (+3,0,-0) (+gui1ty, +nielsenb, +kparal) (adamw, 16:16:36)
    5. AGREED: 2045329 - RejectedFreezeException (Final) - as this is only a fails-to-build bug and the existing package installs fine, and nobody is saying the existing package is broken, there's no clear justification for an FE here (adamw, 16:39:05)

  5. (2134527) Please set widget.use-xdg-desktop-portal.file-picker=1 by default for Firefox (adamw, 16:39:12)
    1. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2134527 (adamw, 16:39:14)
    2. https://pagure.io/fedora-qa/blocker-review/issue/971 (adamw, 16:39:16)
    3. Proposed Freeze Exceptions, firefox, NEW (adamw, 16:39:19)
    4. Ticket vote: FinalFreezeException (+4,2,-0) (+bcotton, +geraldosimiao, +frantisekz, +gui1ty, kparal, nielsenb) (adamw, 16:39:23)
    5. AGREED: 2134527 - AcceptedFreezeException (Final) - this as accepted as it would be a substantial improvement for KDE users and affect the live images, but we would expect thorough testing before pulling in the change (adamw, 16:46:55)

  6. (2113253) gnome-screenshot: FTBFS in Fedora rawhide/f37 (adamw, 16:47:07)
    1. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2113253 (adamw, 16:47:14)
    2. https://pagure.io/fedora-qa/blocker-review/issue/972 (adamw, 16:47:16)
    3. Proposed Freeze Exceptions, gnome-screenshot, VERIFIED (adamw, 16:47:16)
    4. Ticket vote: FinalFreezeException (+4,0,-1) (+kparal, +frantisekz, +gui1ty, +nielsenb, -bcotton) (adamw, 16:47:19)
    5. AGREED: 2113253 - RejectedFreezeException (Final) - as with 2045329, this appears to be only fails-to-build, the existing package installs and rebuilding it alone is not asserted to fix any important bugs, so this is rejected (adamw, 16:56:44)

  7. (2135289) RPM packaged applications are presented in GNOME Software and preferred over Flatpaks on Silverblue (adamw, 16:56:50)
    1. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2135289 (adamw, 16:56:54)
    2. https://pagure.io/fedora-qa/blocker-review/issue/975 (adamw, 16:56:56)
    3. Proposed Freeze Exceptions, gnome-software, MODIFIED (adamw, 16:56:59)
    4. Ticket vote: FinalFreezeException (+4,1,-0) (+kparal, +mclasen, +nielsenb, +adamwill, gui1ty) (adamw, 16:57:01)
    5. AGREED: 2135289 - RejectedFreezeException (Final) - there is support for this in principle, but testing indicates the current update has a severe problem, and that indicates it's probably too late to be poking this code even if a quick fix is found for that specific problem. We may re-consider this if the problem kparal identified is addressed and the release slips (adamw, 17:07:51)

  8. (2114728) golang-1.19.2 is available (adamw, 17:08:01)
    1. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2114728 (adamw, 17:08:03)
    2. https://pagure.io/fedora-qa/blocker-review/issue/974 (adamw, 17:08:12)
    3. Proposed Freeze Exceptions, golang, ON_QA (adamw, 17:08:12)
    4. Ticket vote: FinalFreezeException (+1,1,-1) (+gotmax23, gui1ty, -nielsenb) (adamw, 17:08:13)
    5. https://groups.google.com/g/golang-announce/c/xtuG5faxtaU (adamw, 17:09:06)
    6. AGREED: 2114728 - AcceptedFreezeException (Final) - as this addresses three security issues, we see benefit to getting it in the buildroot (i.e. pushing it through stable) ASAP, so further builds of Go-based packages are protected against those issues (adamw, 17:17:02)

  9. (2134742) Consider mesa-22.2.1-1 pull into F37 (adamw, 17:17:31)
    1. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2134742 (adamw, 17:17:32)
    2. https://pagure.io/fedora-qa/blocker-review/issue/973 (adamw, 17:17:34)
    3. Proposed Freeze Exceptions, mesa, MODIFIED (adamw, 17:17:43)
    4. Ticket vote: FinalFreezeException (+0,0,-1) (-nielsenb) (adamw, 17:17:45)
    5. AGREED: 2134742 - RejectedFreezeException (Final) - nobody has provided a strong reason to pull this in and we have no evaluation from a domain expert, so it doesn't seem prudent to just pull this in and hope it makes things better (adamw, 17:26:11)

  10. (2133784) Most installed apps can't be started from Plasma Discover in a VM (without acceleration, in a Wayland session) (adamw, 17:26:23)
    1. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2133784 (adamw, 17:26:27)
    2. https://pagure.io/fedora-qa/blocker-review/issue/966 (adamw, 17:26:30)
    3. Proposed Freeze Exceptions, plasma-discover, NEW (adamw, 17:26:33)
    4. Ticket vote: FinalFreezeException (+4,0,-5) (+bcotton, +geraldosimiao, +nixuser, +pointy, -sgallagh, -lruzicka, -augenauf, -gui1ty, -nielsenb) (adamw, 17:26:43)
    5. AGREED: 2133784 - RejectedFreezeException (Final) - while there would be value in fixing this for installs of apps on first boot before updating, it seems too dangerous to risk poking the software installer this late (adamw, 17:33:44)

  11. Accepted Final blockers (adamw, 17:33:57)
    1. we have ready-to-go fixes for all blockers except 2129358 and 2132769/2132772. in both those cases we have fixes available but someone is working on "better" fixes and we've been waiting for those, but we cannot wait much longer, and will go with the available fixes soon if 'better' builds do not turn up (adamw, 17:37:25)

  12. Open floor (adamw, 17:39:59)
