  2. Introduction (adamw, 16:06:14)
    1. 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. (adamw, 16:06:14)
    2. We'll be following the process outlined at: (adamw, 16:06:14)
    3. https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:SOP_Blocker_Bug_Meeting (adamw, 16:06:28)
    4. The bugs up for review today are available at: (adamw, 16:06:28)
    5. http://qa.fedoraproject.org/blockerbugs/current (adamw, 16:06:28)
    6. The criteria for release blocking bugs can be found at: (adamw, 16:06:28)
    7. https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_20_Alpha_Release_Criteria (adamw, 16:06:38)
    8. https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_20_Beta_Release_Criteria (adamw, 16:06:38)
    9. https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_20_Final_Release_Criteria (adamw, 16:06:38)
    10. 4 Proposed Blockers (adamw, 16:07:50)
    11. 10 Accepted Blockers (adamw, 16:07:50)
    12. 6 Proposed Freeze Exceptions (adamw, 16:07:50)
    13. 11 Accepted Freeze Exceptions (adamw, 16:07:50)

  3. (1020974) incorrectly treats a disk with partially corrupt GPT as having no partition at all (adamw, 16:08:51)
    1. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1020974 (adamw, 16:08:51)
    2. Proposed Blocker, anaconda, NEW (adamw, 16:08:51)
    3. AGREED: this is a very tough call, and if it turns out that the 1019541 fix fixes it, we can happily dodge making that tough call. so for now the evaluation is postponed until we check whether that fix also fixes this bug (adamw, 16:21:50)

  4. (1005895) Upgrade to f20 fails because of deltarpms (adamw, 16:22:42)
    1. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1005895 (adamw, 16:22:43)
    2. Proposed Blocker, fedup, MODIFIED (adamw, 16:22:43)
    3. roshi will secretarialize (adamw, 16:23:27)
    4. AGREED: as it is not clear whether this is actually a dupe of kparal's https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1017205 and only affects fedup runs with --instrepo, we will discuss this again at the next meeting after kparal has evaluated it (adamw, 16:35:23)

  5. (1021258) requires user manually create biosboot when using guided partitioning (adamw, 16:35:41)
    1. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1021258 (adamw, 16:35:42)
    2. Proposed Blocker, python-blivet, NEW (adamw, 16:35:42)
    3. AGREED: 1021258 is accepted as a blocker per Alpha criterion "When using the guided partitioning flow, the installer must be able to cleanly install to a disk with a valid ms-dos or gpt disk label and partition table which contains existing data and sufficient unpartitioned space for a Fedora installation." (adamw, 16:41:04)

  6. (1021110) u-boot.imx does not start extlinux automatically (adamw, 16:41:23)
    1. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1021110 (adamw, 16:41:23)
    2. Proposed Blocker, uboot-tools, MODIFIED (adamw, 16:41:23)
    3. AGREED: 1021110 is rejected as a blocker issue as it does not appear to be serious enough to merit that status, but accepted as a freeze exception issue as it will improve the experience on wandboard systems and looks to be a safe fix (adamw, 16:51:53)

  7. (1020973) upower statuses often incorrect (adamw, 16:52:15)
    1. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1020973 (adamw, 16:52:15)
    2. Proposed Freeze Exceptions, upower, ON_QA (adamw, 16:52:15)
    3. AGREED: 1020973 is accepted as a freeze exception issue as it can cause confusing and potentially problematic behaviour with power management (adamw, 16:58:35)

  8. (1021511) Lightbox implementation kills performance on LiveCDs (XFCE completely unusable in VM) (adamw, 16:59:18)
    1. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1021511 (adamw, 16:59:22)
    2. Proposed Freeze Exception, anaconda, NEW (adamw, 16:59:37)
    3. AGREED: 1021511 is accepted as a freeze exception issue, as it's effectively a showstopper for installation with non-blocker desktop live images (adamw, 17:03:01)

  9. (1020867) kickstart --noformat swap not added to /etc/fstab (adamw, 17:03:24)
    1. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1020867 (adamw, 17:03:24)
    2. Proposed Freeze Exceptions, anaconda, MODIFIED (adamw, 17:03:24)
    3. AGREED: 1020867 is accepted as a freeze exception issue as it could cause unwanted behaviour for some configurations and previously used to behave correctly, anaconda team, please try to avoid pushing things to the frozen branch that aren't FE/blocker fixes (adamw, 17:09:19)

  10. (1014304) Online account selection dialog is empty and 'Cancel' button doesn't work (adamw, 17:10:02)
    1. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1014304 (adamw, 17:10:03)
    2. Proposed Freeze Exceptions, gnome-initial-setup, NEW (adamw, 17:10:03)
    3. AGREED: 1014304 is accepted as a freeze exception issue as it's a clearly missing function in a commonly-encountered element that cannot be fully addressed with an update (adamw, 17:14:30)

  11. (1019073) Focus is getting removed from the target window (adamw, 17:14:35)
    1. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1019073 (adamw, 17:14:35)
    2. Proposed Freeze Exceptions, mutter, NEW (adamw, 17:14:35)
    3. https://git.gnome.org/browse/gnome-shell/commit/?id=93dc7a51c0e70a6ff5a03c3fd8ebba39d5a13978 (adamw, 17:16:11)
    4. AGREED: 1019073 is rejected as a freeze exception bug, as it does not seem to affect GNOME's own OSK, and others would have to be installed from repositories anyway so this can be fixed with an update (adamw, 17:29:44)

  12. (1005482) qtbase FTBFS on ppc/ppc64 (adamw, 17:29:50)
    1. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1005482 (adamw, 17:29:51)
    2. Proposed Freeze Exceptions, qt5-qtbase, ON_QA (adamw, 17:29:51)
    3. AGREED: it is not clear why we would want to take 1005482 through the freeze; we will request a clearer explanation and discuss this again at the next meeting (adamw, 17:36:59)

  13. (1020545) Some Activities fail to run correctly in F-20 beta (adamw, 17:37:05)
    1. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1020545 (adamw, 17:37:05)
    2. Proposed Freeze Exceptions, sugar, NEW (adamw, 17:37:05)
    3. AGREED: 1020545 is accepted as a freeze exception issue as a significant issue in a non-blocking desktop that can't be fixed with an update (adamw, 17:44:58)

  14. (1020974) incorrectly treats a disk with partially corrupt GPT as having no partition at all (adamw, 17:47:53)
    1. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1020974 (adamw, 17:47:53)
    2. Proposed Blocker, anaconda, NEW (adamw, 17:47:53)
    3. AGREED: 1020974 is accepted as a freeze exception issue as a severe and potentially dangerous misbehaviour of the installer in a fairly unusual condition. agreement cannot be reached on blocker status, will be discussed again at the next meeting. (adamw, 17:56:08)
