* LINK: https://qa.fedoraproject.org/blockerbugs/milestone/42/final/buglist (@amoloney:fedora.im, 17:11:19)
* INFO: let's take a look at proposed final blockers (@adamwill:fedora.im, 17:12:01)
* LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2357836 (@adamwill:fedora.im, 17:12:17)
* TOPIC: (2357836) WebUI: list index out of range (@adamwill:fedora.im, 17:12:17)
* INFO: Proposed Blocker, anaconda, ON_QA (@adamwill:fedora.im, 17:12:17)
* LINK: https://pagure.io/fedora-qa/blocker-review/issue/1852 (@adamwill:fedora.im, 17:12:17)
* AGREED: 2357836 - RejectedBlocker (Final) AcceptedFreezeException (Final) - this is rejected as a blocker as we think the precedence is too low to block on, it's a very uncommon bug. Anyone affected can reboot and try again. However, a freeze exception is granted as obviously it'd be best to fix this race if we slip (@adamwill:fedora.im, 17:33:12)
* INFO: Ticket vote: FinalBlocker (+0,0,-5) (-boniboyblue, -kparal, -sumantrom, -farribeiro, -geraldosimiao) (@nirik:matrix.scrye.com, 17:34:57)
* TOPIC: (2358741) Support for GNOME X sessions was dropped outgrowing the previously accepted scope of the Wayland transition (@nirik:matrix.scrye.com, 17:34:57)
* LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2358741 (@nirik:matrix.scrye.com, 17:34:57)
* LINK: https://pagure.io/fedora-qa/blocker-review/issue/1849 (@nirik:matrix.scrye.com, 17:34:57)
* INFO: Proposed Blocker, gdm, NEW (@nirik:matrix.scrye.com, 17:34:57)
* AGREED: 2358741 - RejectedBlocker(final): This is an engineering design decision and doesn't violate any blocker criteria. (@nirik:matrix.scrye.com, 17:43:34)
* TOPIC: (2358880) Live install sometimes gets stuck during rsync, launching another application unsticks it (@nirik:matrix.scrye.com, 17:43:47)
* INFO: Proposed Blocker, kernel, NEW (@nirik:matrix.scrye.com, 17:43:47)
* LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2358880 (@nirik:matrix.scrye.com, 17:43:47)
* LINK: https://pagure.io/fedora-qa/blocker-review/issue/1850 (@nirik:matrix.scrye.com, 17:43:47)
* AGREED: 2358880 - RejectedBlocker(final): this is rejected as a blocker as we think it is too infrequent to block on, it's rare and only on vm installs. Anyone affected can reboot and try again. However, a freeze exception is granted as obviously it'd be best to fix this if we slip (@nirik:matrix.scrye.com, 17:55:19)
* INFO: 5 verified accepted blockers that are fixed in RC-1.1 (@nirik:matrix.scrye.com, 17:56:27)
* INFO: Accepted Blocker, libdnf, NEW (@nirik:matrix.scrye.com, 17:56:38)
* LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2354865 (@nirik:matrix.scrye.com, 17:56:38)
* LINK: https://pagure.io/fedora-qa/blocker-review/issue/1812 (@nirik:matrix.scrye.com, 17:56:38)
* TOPIC: (2354865) libdnf (DNF4) should read DNF5 repo overrides (@nirik:matrix.scrye.com, 17:56:38)
* AGREED: 2354865 - blocker status is waived to Fedora 43 Beta under the "Difficult to fix blocker bugs" category per https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:SOP_blocker_bug_process#Exceptional_cases , as the intended fix (porting gnome-software to libdnf5) is not appropriate to land in Fedora 42 at this stage of development (@adamwill:fedora.im, 18:07:18)
* INFO: with that, there are no unaddressed final blockers (@adamwill:fedora.im, 18:07:36)
* TOPIC: Current Status - Test Matrices (@amoloney:fedora.im, 18:12:01)
* LINK: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Category:Fedora_42_Test_Results (@amoloney:fedora.im, 18:12:13)
