" 17:18:44 ^^ 17:19:25 i'm 0 on blocker right now (prefer to punt for more testing), but i'd be +1 to an FE for it 17:19:50 I think discussing the criterion now is premature, -1 or punt until we have more people complaining about this 17:20:16 i mean 17:20:18 it's a Shell crash 17:20:20 we have been here before 17:20:32 any Shell crash *can* be a blocker under various criteria, notably the 'data loss' one 17:20:37 it's kind of a question of how common it is 17:20:57 I'd go with punt 17:21:34 how about FE at least? freeze should be realtively soon i think? 17:21:46 freeze is 25 Feb (a week from tomorrow) 17:22:13 right 17:22:20 +1FE and we can defer blocker decision until next week (post the Gnome test day, btw) 17:22:24 i'm probably at least +1 FE for a shell crasher 17:22:36 +1 FE 17:22:49 +1 FE 17:22:58 i have seen my Shell just randomly crash at least once recently, so can believe this is a general issue 17:23:04 (i didn't see yet if it's the same as this bug) 17:23:13 +1FE, punt for blocker status 17:24:12 proposed #agreed 1801820 - punt (delay decision) on blocker, AcceptedFreezeException (Beta) - this is potentially a blocker, but we can't make a definite determination yet as there is insufficient information on how common the issue is. However, as a Shell crash under active investigation upstream we're at least willing to grant it freeze exception status, it's definitely a good idea to fix these for the live image if possible 17:24:25 ack 17:24:33 ack 17:24:41 ack 17:25:00 ack 17:25:07 #agreed 1801820 - punt (delay decision) on blocker, AcceptedFreezeException (Beta) - this is potentially a blocker, but we can't make a definite determination yet as there is insufficient information on how common the issue is.

The bug report is about the installer environment 17:29:33 or am I mistaken? 17:29:37 probably both 17:29:58 the installer criterion is probably the better one to use esp if it's causing installer problems 17:30:31 this bug is about the installer environment. 17:30:46 i don't think it's an issue on installed systems. if you turn off plymouth, you can log into a tty no problem, in my experience. 17:30:57 that criterion is arguably the appropriate one for the plymouth bug. 17:31:04 (OK, I'll propose the plymouth bug now) 17:32:12 trying to reproduce this atm, will report in-bug 17:34:30 i'm gonna say punt on this one for now 17:34:42 but if it is confirmed to break text installs, +1 17:35:20 punt is fine 17:35:27 +1 punt 17:35:28 +1 punt 17:36:25 i definitely can't login via tty1 on Workstation unless I first kill -9 plymouth 17:36:58 that's on an installed system 17:37:19 cmurf: that's still not this bug. :P 17:37:22 OK 17:37:48 sorry i mentioned the plymouth stuff in the discussion of this bug, but that's why i separated it out in the end, i don't think they're the same 17:38:31 proposed #agreed 1801272 - punt (delay decision) - if this is indeed preventing text installs from working it will definitely be a blocker, but we're just not 100% sure of that at this time, so we are punting so a few people can try it and confirm whether that's the case 17:38:56 ack 17:38:57 ack 17:39:06 ack 17:39:13 #agreed 1801272 - punt (delay decision) - if this is indeed preventing text installs from working it will definitely be a blocker, but we're just not 100% sure of that at this time, so we are punting so a few people can try it and confirm whether that's the case 17:39:35 if the plymouth bug affects Server, seems like this beta criterion applies "A system installed without a graphical package set must boot to a working login prompt without any unintended user intervention, and all virtual consoles intended to provide a working login prompt must do so. " 17:39:45 post-install 17:43:33 i just wrote that in the bug. 17:43:41 but first 17:43:46 #topic Accepted Beta blockers 17:43:51 let's take a quick look at a couple of these 17:44:22 #topic (1795000) gnome-session is crashing, desktop intermittently is never reached 17:44:22 #link https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1795000 17:44:22 #info Accepted Blocker, gnome-session, NEW 17:44:40 so we've had this on the list for a while, but now the other bugs that were getting in the way are resolved, i'm not sure this is still valid 17:44:56 it could possibly be the same thing as the 1801820 crash, i guess? 17:45:30 i forget if this is selinux or glib2 related 17:46:00 in any case I haven't updated since branch so I'm not sure whether it's fixed 17:51:59 it is not the glib/selinux bug 17:52:05 that is https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1795524 17:52:21 #info 1795000 - we are not sure whether this is still a current concern, we will ask for feedback in the bug report 17:52:29 #topic (1795524) Fedora 32 Rawhide won't boot until set to "permissive" 17:52:29 #link https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1795524 17:52:29 #info Accepted Blocker, selinux-policy, ASSIGNED 17:52:54 so, this is still open because there is still an issue to resolve between selinux and glib/desktop folks, but its blockeriness has (I believe) gone away 17:53:00 so i suggest we keep it open but drop the blocker metadata 17:53:31 seeing something similar to this 17:53:41 .bug 1623930 17:53:42 coremodule: 1623930 – file conflicts between glibc-2.28-9.fc29.i686 and glibc32-2.20-7.3.fc29.8.x86_64 - https://bugzilla.redhat.com/1623930 17:53:55 wondering if this is potentially related? 17:56:10 er 17:56:15 glib and glibc are entirely dfifferent things 17:56:23 and this bug has nothing to do with file conflicts 17:57:14 #info the blockeriness of this bug has been resolved by upstream fixing the glib fallback path (and that changing being brought downstream). there is still an issue here (desktop team would prefer the SELinux policy doesn't force us down the fallback path at all) so the bug cannot be closed, but we will remove the blocker metadata 17:57:19 OK, moving on 17:57:29 #topic Proposed Final blockers 17:59:44 #topic (1802169) tracker crashes with GLib-ERROR: Failed to set scheduler settings 17:59:44 #link https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1802169 17:59:44 #info Proposed Blocker, tracker, NEW 18:00:38 seems like a clear +1 blocker 18:01:59 I'd like to see at least one more person hitting it 18:03:16 I've hit it as described 18:03:31 +1 blocker 18:03:32 including the gnome-shell notification 18:03:44 ok, +1 then 18:05:23 +1 blocker 18:08:56 +1 18:10:53 proposed #agreed 1802169 - AcceptedBlocker (Final) - accepted as a violation of "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" 18:11:05 ack 18:11:09 ack 18:11:35 ack 18:15:53 #agreed 1802169 - AcceptedBlocker (Final) - accepted as a violation of "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" 18:19:01 confess yourselves, who's stealing adamw's cpu time?

18:25:23 cmurf: we're blocked on pagure. we need its latest version to get deployed first 18:25:33 ahh 18:26:00 the code should be ready. whether we manage to deploy it in communishift, that's another question 18:26:25 but the cloud makes everything better! 18:26:30 are you sure it's hybrid enough? 18:26:47 that might be your problem 18:26:50 i offer my raspberry pi zero for it if that helps 18:26:50 hybrid it harder 18:26:53 cloud + hybrid 18:27:05 I'll forward the offer to frantisekz 18:27:08 haha 18:28:31 #info async blocker process is waiting on a newer pagure to be deployed to Ze Cloud 18:29:57 okey dokey 18:30:00 thanks for coming, everyone 18:30:11 thanks 18:30:17 thanks 18:30:35 thanks for hosting 18:32:53 #endmeeting
