Fwd: [Test-Announce] Fedora 37 Candidate RC-1.2 Available Now!

by Adam Williamson

Hi folks, just a heads-up that the second RC for 37 Final is out now and we need to get through the testing by Thursday. There are a few potential blockers to work through, but so far I kinda suspect we may decide to reject or waive the ones that have arisen, so I still want to treat this as a 'viable' candidate for now and get all the tests run on it. This particularly includes the Active Directory tests (pinging sgallagh, thanks as always...) and testing Cloud on real clouds. The forwarded email has links to the results pages, which have links to the images (including AMIs on the Cloud results page). You can edit results into the wiki pages directly or use `relval report-results` (after `dnf -y install relval`) which is a CLI that edits the pages for you and makes the process slightly less annoying. :D Thanks a lot folks! -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA IRC: adamw | Twitter: adamw_ha https://www.happyassassin.net

2022-10-17 @ 16:00 UTC - Fedora 37 Blocker Review Meeting

by Adam Williamson

# F36 Blocker Review meeting # Date: 2022-10-17 # Time: 16:00 UTC # Location: #fedora-blocker-review on irc.libera.chat Hi folks! We have 5 proposed Final freeze exceptions to review, and there's a chance blockers will be proposed over the weekend, so let's have a review meeting. If you have time this weekend, you can take a look at the proposed or accepted blockers before the meeting - the full lists can be found here: https://qa.fedoraproject.org/blockerbugs/ . Remember, you can also now vote on bugs outside of review meetings! If you look at the bug list in the blockerbugs app, you'll see links labeled "Vote!" next to all proposed blockers and freeze exceptions. Those links take you to tickets where you can vote. https://pagure.io/fedora-qa/blocker-review has instructions on how exactly you do it. We usually go through the tickets shortly before the meeting and apply any clear votes, so the meeting will just cover bugs where there wasn't a clear outcome in the ticket voting yet. **THIS MEANS IF YOU VOTE NOW, THE MEETING WILL BE SHORTER!** We'll be evaluating these bugs to see if they violate any of the Release Criteria and warrant the blocking of a release if they're not fixed. Information on the release criteria for F36 can be found on the wiki [0]. For more information about the Blocker and Freeze exception process, check out these links: - https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:SOP_blocker_bug_process - https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:SOP_freeze_exception_bug_process And for those of you who are curious how a Blocker Review Meeting works - or how it's supposed to go and you want to run one - check out the SOP on the wiki: - https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:SOP_Blocker_Bug_Meeting Have a good weekend and see you on Monday!

Help wanted: GNOME Calendar blocker issues

by Allan Day

Hi all, We currently have three F37 release blocker issues against gnome-calendar: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2130964 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2130977 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2130981 Right now there isn't any progress on fixing any of them, and we have about a week to decide whether to stick with gnome-calendar for F37, or remove the package from the install media (something that the Workstation Working Group is keen to avoid). If any developers can spare some time to investigate any of these issues, it would be a big help! Thanks, Allan

About Dynamic triple buffering for GNOME

by Neal Gompa

Hey all, Yesterday evening, I saw Phoronix reporting that Debian is now going to ship the triple buffering patches for Mutter[1] that are currently stuck in review[2]. These patches have been shipped in Ubuntu for a while now, and have given Ubuntu's GNOME experience a tremendous performance improvement that we don't have. From my perspective, it's particularly embarrassing that not only is the upstream GNOME merge request[2] stalled at this point with a message more or less saying distros who want the improvements should carry the patches[3], but that Debian is now carrying it to bring the massive performance benefits to their users[1]. Looking at the merge request history, there hasn't been much in the way of reviews recently for it[2] and its dependent MRs in almost a year[4][5]. As I see that the upstream developers are the maintainers of the packages in Fedora, I guess that pulling the patch into Fedora is out of the question. Can anyone here help with the upstream reviews so we can have this in Fedora? We shouldn't be leaving so much on the table like this. :( [1]: https://www.phoronix.com/news/Debian-Dynamic-Triple-GNOME [2]: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1441 [3]: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1441#note_1543960 [4]: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/2087 [5]: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1968 -- 真実はいつも一つ！/ Always, there's only one truth!
