Meeting summary

  1. Roll Call (adamw, 16:00:57)
    1. frantisekz will secretarialize (adamw, 16:12:01)

  2. Introduction (adamw, 16:12:26)
    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, 16:12:26)
    2. We'll be following the process outlined at: (adamw, 16:12:26)
    3. https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:SOP_Blocker_Bug_Meeting (adamw, 16:12:28)
    4. The bugs up for review today are available at: (adamw, 16:12:28)
    5. http://qa.fedoraproject.org/blockerbugs/current (adamw, 16:12:30)
    6. The criteria for release blocking bugs can be found at: (adamw, 16:12:34)
    7. https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Basic_Release_Criteria (adamw, 16:12:36)
    8. https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_29_Beta_Release_Criteria (adamw, 16:12:38)
    9. https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_29_Final_Release_Criteria (adamw, 16:12:40)
    10. 8 Proposed Blockers (adamw, 16:12:44)
    11. 7 Accepted Blockers (adamw, 16:12:46)
    12. 1 Accepted Previous Release Blockers (adamw, 16:12:48)
    13. 6 Proposed Freeze Exceptions (adamw, 16:12:50)
    14. 2 Accepted Freeze Exceptions (adamw, 16:12:52)
    15. starting with proposed blockers (adamw, 16:12:58)

  3. (1589332) UEFI, dual drive installation bootloader error message is unhelpful (adamw, 16:13:02)
    1. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1589332 (adamw, 16:13:04)
    2. Proposed Blocker, anaconda, ASSIGNED (adamw, 16:13:06)
    3. AGREED: 1589332 - RejectedBlocker (Final) - this is really the same as an old bug, #1168118, which was never fixed. That bug was rejected as a blocker and we uphold that decision here (it is not very commonly encountered, can be worked around, and fixing it would be quite disruptive and come with a risk of breaking something worse). we will close the bug as a dupe of the old one (adamw, 16:20:48)

  4. (1636184) Default module streams appeared post-Beta for Fedora 29, this seems reckless (adamw, 16:21:00)
    1. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1636184 (adamw, 16:21:00)
    2. Proposed Blocker, distribution, ASSIGNED (adamw, 16:21:00)
    3. AGREED: 1636184 - punt to FESCo - this doesn't really violate the release criteria, but we are concerned about it as it relates to the Change process, so we will file a ticket asking FESCo to consider it (adamw, 16:26:13)

  5. (1636239) get_best_query().filter(latest=True) is returning incorrect results (adamw, 16:26:35)
    1. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1636239 (adamw, 16:26:35)
    2. Proposed Blocker, dnf, NEW (adamw, 16:26:35)
    3. AGREED: 1636239 - RejectedBlocker (Final) - there does not seem to be any current violation of the release criteria here, this is not affecting F29 composes (adamw, 16:31:28)

  6. (1625142) In Gnome Wayland, forward-key-event does not work well, breaks space key completely (adamw, 16:31:44)
    1. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1625142 (adamw, 16:31:44)
    2. Proposed Blocker, gnome-shell, NEW (adamw, 16:31:45)
    3. AGREED: 1625142 - RejectedBlocker (Final) - we agreed that while this is a bad bug, since it only affects one language that likely isn't a large percentage of Fedora's user base by default, it's not quite serious enough to be a blocker. It is already accepted as an FE, and we recommend Prioritized status (though it should be fixed today) (adamw, 16:42:44)

  7. (1630233) Unable to unlock (or cancel) LUKS-encrypted USB drive or SD card in GNOME (adamw, 16:42:55)
    1. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1630233 (adamw, 16:42:56)
    2. Proposed Blocker, gnome-shell, NEW (adamw, 16:42:56)
    3. AGREED: 1630233 - AcceptedBlocker (Final) - accepted as a blocker under the "default panel functionality" and "application basic functionality test" criteria, per comment #6 (adamw, 16:46:34)

  8. (1632981) Cannot commit Japanese candidates or Korean Hangul in gnome-terminal and libreoffice (adamw, 16:46:57)
    1. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1632981 (adamw, 16:46:57)
    2. Proposed Blocker, gtk3, NEW (adamw, 16:46:57)
    3. AGREED: 1632981 - punt (delay decision) on blocker, AcceptedFreezeException (Final) - this is definitely bad enough to warrant a freeze exception. We were not certain on blocker status; we would like to know if any other input methods, particularly major Chinese ones, are affected in order to be able to make a decision (adamw, 17:10:22)

  9. (1633328) Armv7 guest fails to boot with qemu-3.0.0-1 (adamw, 17:10:31)
    1. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1633328 (adamw, 17:10:31)
    2. Proposed Blocker, qemu, NEW (adamw, 17:10:31)
    3. AGREED: 1633328 - RejectedBlocker AcceptedFreezeException (Final) - it seems the story here is complex and a simple 'fix' may not be possible. given that, we reject it as a blocker as it *is* possible to run ARM-on-ARM virt, it just requires a non-default arg for some guest cases. We grant an FE for any simple, testable mitigation that appears, and will document the issue in Common Bugs (adamw, 17:32:13)

  10. (1633786) SELinux is preventing (boltd) from 'create' accesses on the directory boltd. (adamw, 17:32:46)
    1. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1633786 (adamw, 17:32:46)
    2. Proposed Blocker, selinux-policy, NEW (adamw, 17:32:47)
    3. AGREED: 1633786 - AcceptedBlocker (Final) - this is accepted as a violation of the criterion "There must be no SELinux denial notifications or crash notifications on boot of or during installation from a release-blocking live image, or at first login after a default install of a release-blocking desktop." (adamw, 17:35:41)

  11. End of proposed blockers (adamw, 17:36:26)
    1. moving onto proposed Freeze Exception issues (adamw, 17:36:34)

  12. (1635252) anaconda: Ignore errors activating unknown swap partitions (adamw, 17:36:41)
    1. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1635252 (adamw, 17:36:41)
    2. Proposed Freeze Exceptions, anaconda, POST (adamw, 17:36:41)
    3. AGREED: 1635252 - AcceptedFreezeException (Final) - this clearly can cause inconvenience during install in some cases and cannot be fixed with an update (adamw, 17:38:32)

  13. (1637021) Installation should be aborted if module dependency errors are detected (adamw, 17:38:38)
    1. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1637021 (adamw, 17:38:38)
    2. Proposed Freeze Exceptions, anaconda, POST (adamw, 17:38:38)
    3. https://pykickstart.readthedocs.io/en/latest/kickstart-docs.html#module (sgallagh, 17:41:57)
    4. AGREED: 1637021 - AcceptedFreezeException (Final) - this is clearly a useful and sensible protection and cannot be added post-release (adamw, 17:44:28)
    5. i think we can skip #1636184 as we're referring it to fesco and sgallagh is on it already (adamw, 17:44:51)

  14. (1631002) gnome-control-center stuck and starts consume memory abnormally if I try to change the background or lock screen image. (adamw, 17:45:03)
    1. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1631002 (adamw, 17:45:03)
    2. Proposed Freeze Exceptions, gnome-control-center, POST (adamw, 17:45:03)
    3. AGREED: 1631002 - AcceptedFreezeException (Final) - this is definitely a bad enough bug to be worth an FE to ensure it's fixed on live images and immediately after initial install or upgrade (adamw, 17:47:21)
    4. 1630233 was already accepted as a blocker, no need to discuss (adamw, 17:47:37)

  15. (1636207) lorax-composer needs some commits from master: composer-cli rename, lock root account in images (adamw, 17:47:44)
    1. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1636207 (adamw, 17:47:44)
    2. Proposed Freeze Exceptions, lorax, ON_QA (adamw, 17:47:44)
    3. AGREED: 1636207 - AcceptedFreezeException (Final) - as this does not affect critical functionality, we're fine with letting bcl change it now if he needs to (adamw, 17:50:00)

  16. End of proposed freeze exceptions (adamw, 17:50:07)
    1. moving on to some of the accepted blockers (adamw, 17:51:06)
    2. moving back to 1636184 as a proposed FE at sgallagh's request (adamw, 17:51:50)

  17. (1636184) Default module streams appeared post-Beta for Fedora 29, this seems reckless (adamw, 17:51:52)
    1. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1636184 (adamw, 17:51:52)
    2. Proposed Freeze Exceptions, distribution, ASSIGNED (adamw, 17:51:52)
    3. AGREED: 1636184 - AcceptedFreezeException (Final) - we grant freeze exception for all changes required to unpick the erroneous libgit2 default module stream addition here, including an FE for a non-modular libgit2 build to match the one that was in the default module stream (adamw, 17:54:59)

  18. Really the end of proposed FEs (adamw, 17:55:11)
    1. really moving onto accepted blockers (adamw, 17:55:18)

  19. (1625269) The Region and Languages section displays in a very small window and therefore is difficult to use. (adamw, 17:56:02)
    1. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1625269 (adamw, 17:56:02)
    2. Accepted Blocker, gnome-control-center, ON_QA (adamw, 17:56:02)
    3. QA needs to confirm the fix for this with current stable packages (adamw, 17:56:30)

    2. Accepted Blocker, gnome-shell, MODIFIED (adamw, 17:57:25)

    2. Accepted Blocker, mutter, NEW (adamw, 18:03:08)
