  * AGREED: 853253 - AcceptedBlocker - Violates the following F18 alpha
    release criterion: "The installer must be able to complete an
    installation using the text, graphical and VNC installation
    interfaces"  (tflink, 16:44:27)

    16:58:25)
  * Proposed Blocker, NEW  (tflink, 16:58:28)
  * AGREED: 854471 - While this sounds like something that could be a
    problem, there is not enough information on the causes or steps
    taken to reproduce this issue to make a decision on blocker status
    at this time. Will re-visit when there is more data.  (tflink,

    17:02:51)
  * Proposed Blocker, NEW  (tflink, 17:02:51)

    17:10:13)
  * Proposed Blocker, ASSIGNED  (tflink, 17:10:13)
  * AGREED: 854512 - RejectedBlocker - It appears that if this is a
    problem, it doesn't show up every time. If it turns out to be a

    17:21:06)
  * Proposed Blocker, MODIFIED  (tflink, 17:21:08)
  * AGREED: 853587 - AcceptedNTH - We need more information on the
    severity/frequency of the crash and testing of the fix before
    deciding on blocker status. However, releasing alpha with a
    frequently crashing KDE spin is not desired and thus, accepted as
    NTH for F18 alpha  (tflink, 17:28:26)

* (835601) libparted crashes in mac_read on cheapo USB drive  (tflink,
  17:28:35)

    17:39:59)
  * Proposed NTH, ON_QA  (tflink, 17:39:59)
  * AGREED: 849731 - AcceptedNTH - This is a blocker for PPC, making it
    an NTH overall. However, it would be good to see some more testing
    of the new build with non-ppc arches before allowing it to be pushed
    to stable or used in an alpha TC/RC  (tflink, 17:44:05)

* (844463) Xorg blows assertion at startup: Xorg: privates.c:560:

  * AGREED: 844463 - AcceptedNTH - Virt bugs are beta, so this is not a

    working default graphics adapter would be preferred  (tflink,
    17:47:43)

* (852845) ship systemd preset for lightdm  (tflink, 17:47:51)
  * LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=852845   (tflink,
    17:47:51)
  * Proposed NTH, MODIFIED  (tflink, 17:47:51)
  * AGREED: 852845 - AcceptedNTH - Prevents lightdm from stating, which
    is the DM for XFCE. As a non-primary DE, any blocker there becomes
    an NTH  (tflink, 17:53:04)

* (848641) Fedora 18 Alpha TC2 fails to boot from USB stick (written by
  livecd-iso-to-disk)  (tflink, 18:00:38)

    18:10:06)
  * Accepted Blocker, MODIFIED  (tflink, 18:10:09)
  * still needs testing. if a dd'd USB iso has inst.stage2=hd:LABEL= and
    works, this can be moved to VERIFIED  (tflink, 18:12:10)

* (850775) display managers aren't enabled after installation  (tflink,
  18:12:47)
  * LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=850775   (tflink,
    18:12:47)
  * Accepted Blocker, MODIFIED  (tflink, 18:12:48)
  * this is probably fixed enough for alpha but still needs testing with
    TC6/RC1. If there are remaining issues after that testing, they may
    be split off into another bug  (tflink, 18:19:45)

* (852403) PolicyKit authentication in Fedora 18 Alpha TC3 results in
  selinux denial  (tflink, 18:24:11)

  * LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=849997   (tflink,
    18:29:37)
  * Accepted Blocker, ON_QA  (tflink, 18:29:37)
  * AGREED: 849997 - There is a fix for this, but it's not trivial to
    test. Close the bug once the next anaconda version is pushed to
    stable, re-open if this bug becomes a problem again  (tflink,
    18:32:37)

* (854586) OSError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory  (tflink,

  * AGREED: 854586 - AcceptedNTH - Editing any connection in anaconda
