    15. Let's start with proposed blockers (adamw, 16:12:28)

  3. (1753985) Gnome-Boxes cannot connect to Virtualization Backend (adamw, 16:12:33)
    1. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1753985 (adamw, 16:12:34)
    2. Proposed Blocker, gnome-boxes, ASSIGNED (adamw, 16:12:34)
    3. AGREED: 1753985 - RejectedBlocker (Final) - this only happened once in openQA and no-one has reproduced it manually, so it just seems like a one-off blip for now and that doesn't violate the criteria. It can be re-proposed if we find a way to reproduce it reliably (adamw, 16:18:31)

  4. (1753191) Switching from GNOME Classic to GNOME leaves the shell in classic mode (adamw, 16:18:43)
    1. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1753191 (adamw, 16:18:43)
    2. Proposed Blocker, gnome-session, MODIFIED (adamw, 16:18:43)
    3. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1754493 is for 'can't start gnome-classic' (adamw, 16:19:33)
    4. AGREED: 1754493 - RejectedBlocker (Beta) AcceptedFreezeException (Beta) - this is rejected as a blocker as, Classic being a non-release-blocking desktop and desktop selection in GDM not being part of the GNOME 'panel', it doesn't violate any criteria. Accepted as an FE as it's a visible bug we would like to avoid being seen out-of-the-box for Final (adamw, 16:26:17)

  5. (1749868) GNOME Software doesn't prepare offline updates (adamw, 16:26:26)
    1. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1749868 (adamw, 16:26:26)
    2. Proposed Blocker, gnome-software, NEW (adamw, 16:26:26)
    3. AGREED: 1749868 - punt (delay decision) - we are still waiting to see the impact of the skip_if_unavailable change here, and also it seems that another cause of the same error may have been discovered, and we should look into that a bit too (adamw, 16:40:15)

  6. (1754373) Keyboard shortcuts NOT mapped to keyboard layouts (adamw, 16:40:46)
    1. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1754373 (adamw, 16:40:46)
    2. Proposed Blocker, mutter, NEW (adamw, 16:40:47)
    3. AGREED: 1754373 - AcceptedBlocker (Final) - this is accepted as a violation of the 'keyboard layout' criterion (adamw, 16:46:57)

  7. (1754307) Package paprefs requires KDE component apper (adamw, 16:47:04)
    1. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1754307 (adamw, 16:47:04)
    2. Proposed Blocker, paprefs, NEW (adamw, 16:47:04)
    3. AGREED: 1754307 - RejectedBlocker (Final) - this is rejected as a blocker as it does not appear to violate any criteria (adamw, 16:52:16)

  8. (1754493) Attempt to start Gnome Classic ends up in an error. (adamw, 16:52:50)
    1. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1754493 (adamw, 16:52:50)
    2. Proposed Blocker, gnome-shell-extensions, NEW (adamw, 16:52:50)
    3. AGREED: 1754493 - RejectedBlocker (Final) - as GNOME Classic is not a release-blocking desktop, this doesn't violate the criteria (adamw, 16:55:41)

  9. Proposed freeze exceptions (adamw, 16:56:12)
  10. (1753328) Stop NOTIFY_SOCKET from leaking into the GNOME environment (adamw, 16:56:19)
    1. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1753328 (adamw, 16:56:19)
    2. Proposed Freeze Exceptions, gnome-session, ASSIGNED (adamw, 16:56:19)
    3. AGREED: 1753328 - AcceptedFreezeException (Final) - this is accepted due to the impact of broken podman on OOTB experience, and also on Silverblue, which is composed from stable packages (adamw, 17:05:02)

  11. (1752550) soas live beta unable to login to liveuser (adamw, 17:06:26)

    2. Proposed Freeze Exceptions, gwebsockets, ON_QA (adamw, 17:06:43)
    3. AGREED: 1752550 - AcceptedFreezeException (Final) - this is accepted as it fixes a non-release-blocking desktop with a live image; that can't be fixed with an update (adamw, 17:10:45)

  12. Accepted blockers (adamw, 17:11:33)
    1. all the accepted blockers are in fairly clear states, mostly waiting on developers for fixes (adamw, 17:13:04)
