F32, Automatic suspend isn't working.
by Chris Murphy
cross-posting test@ and desktop@
Fedora Workstation 32 (upgraded from f31)
Laptop on battery power set aside, 12 hours later it's dead instead of
sleeping. On F31 it reliably would sleep after 20 minutes.
Sleep still happens when pressing the power button and closing the
lid. It seems to be a GNOME automatic suspend timer problem.
Using dconf editor, I changed the
/org/gnome/settings-daemon/plugins/power/sleep-inactive-battery-timeout
Custom value 30 and the problem doesn't happen. Is there a way to
increase debug messages somehow to find out whether this timeout is
being reached? And what process or policy is causing it to be reset?
With the available information I can't figure out what's preventing
sleep.

[INPUT REQUESTED] fedora-chromium-config and Fedora Workstation
by Stephen Gallagher
There exists an extension[1] for Google Chrome that enables the
management of GNOME Shell extensions on extensions.gnome.org. I am
currently reworking some of the details around how the
fedora-chromium-config package works and I would like to know:
Would the Workstation WG be in favor of me adding a
fedora-chromium-config-gnome subpackage that would automatically
install the GNOME Shell Integration extension for Chrome/Chromium
browsers? I can make its installation conditional on the presence of
gnome-shell on the system if preferred.
Of the other changes I'm looking at making:
1. Enable Chrome's auto-detection of DNS-over-HTTPS. It ships as
disabled by default in Chrome currently, but it can be set to an
'auto' mode that will prefer DoH if it can determine that the DNS
server supports it.
2. Drop the user-agent extension. Ever since the advent of Chrome
v100, various sites (particularly those that rely on Cloudflare[2]
such as Gitlab.com) have been having difficulties when this is
enabled. As its utility is limited (mostly just for metrics purposes),
I think the easiest solution is to just remove it.
3. There's a KDE Plasma integration extension too, maintained by the
KDE upstream. Do we want to install that by default as well?

Bug-by-bug detail
=============
Accepted blockers
-----------------
1. kf5-kirigami2 — https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2057563
— VERIFIED
The About button sends Discover into loop and the application stops responding.
Clicking the About button causes a loop which renders Discover
unresponsive (except when the window is maximized). Fix verified in
FEDORA-2022-120719a555.
2. anaconda — https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2071098 — VERIFIED
"Installing software" and other strings displayed during installation
are untranslated
Available translations are not displayed because LC_ALL was set in the
environment of DBus modules, overriding the value in LANG.
FEDORA-2022-92570f3943 contains a verified fix.
3. gnome-initial-setup —
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2071259 — ASSIGNED
gnome-initial-setup hangs when I try to setup a google/microsoft online account
Setting up a Google or Microsoft account causes g-i-s to apparently
hang, although tty switching works. This appears to be an SELinux
policy issue. https://github.com/fedora-selinux/selinux-policy/pull/1151
contains a candidate fix.
4. openssl — https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2071343 — POST
[tr_TR] curl: (35) error:03000072:digital envelope routines::decode
error with LANG=tr_TR.utf8
curl coredumps when using the Turkish locale because of a string
comparison in OpenSSL that can't handle some unique character case
features in the Turkish alphabet. Upstream has a PR with a candidate
fix: https://github.com/openssl/openssl/pull/18069
5. container-selinux —
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2070764 — ON_QA
selinux-policy is preventing flatpak from updating / installing /
removing flatpaks
SELinux prevents flatpak from accessing a variety of
files/directories, including `/etc/passwd` and
`/var/lib/flatpak/exports/share`. This, in turn, prevents flatpak from
modifying flatpaks on the system. FEDORA-2022-ee2ba7ba12 contained a
fix for F36. container-selinux will need to be rebuilt against
selinux-policy-35.17-1.fc35 and selinux-policy-35.27-1.fc34 for
supported releases.
6. gnome-control-center —
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2068470 — NEW
online accounts: can't disable sync on items
Attempting to disable sync on items in Online Accounts appears to
succeed, but sync still shows as enabled on re-launch. Reported
upstream as https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-control-center/-/issues/1721
7. gnome-shell — https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2073206 — POST
interrupted dimming partly locks window switching
Typing or using the mouse while the screen begins blanking results in
the screen being unresponsive to mouse input. Keyboard input still
works. Upstream PR for mutter contains a candidate fix:
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/2333
8. fedora-repos — https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2073950 — VERIFIED
disable updates-testing, create a final release
FEDORA-2022-bda822f1ae contains a verified fix.
9. gnome-software — https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2074121 — NEW
Enabling "Fedora Flathub Selection" repo doesn't show included apps in
gnome-software until re-login
You have to re-login or reboot to show applications from the filtered
Flathub repo. All other third-party repos work as expected. This
appears to be a cache error. Upstream MR
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-software/-/merge_requests/1325
has a candidate fix.
10. selinux-policy —
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2056303 — ASSIGNED
After upgrade to F36 several packages fail to update due to
selinux-related errors
Some container-related packages have references to SELinux socket
classes that no longer exist. container-selinux, osbuild, snapd,
flatpak need to be rebuilt against the newest selinux-policy.
11. spin-kickstarts — https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2073708 — NEW
pyanaconda.modules.common.errors.installation.StorageInstallationError:
device is active
KDE Plasma automounts storage devices in the live image, causing
Anaconda to fail when trying to modifiy a disk with an existing
logical volume. Disabling automount in the KDE automount settings
prevents this.
Proposed blockers
-----------------
1. xorg-x11-server — https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2074789 — NEW
Basic graphics mode broken for X11 with Nvidia GPU and UEFI
The vesa driver checks for the presence of a directory that no longer
exists since the switch to simpledrm in this release. Upstream MR
contains a candidate fix

Test request: Gnome Text Editor infinite loop (RHBZ 2071228)
by Ben Cotton
Hi folks,
I saw RHBZ 2071228 [1] proposed as a freeze exception, but it looks
blockery to me. The report specifically mentions the fa_IR locale. It
would be very helpful for the purposes of blocker decision to know if
the problem is specific to that locale or if others are affected.
I've tried to reproduce it using the steps in the bug, but I haven't
been able to. That could be entirely a Me Problem™ though.

2022-04-25 @ 16:00 UTC - Fedora 36 Blocker Review Meeting
by Adam Williamson
# F36 Blocker Review meeting
# Date: 2022-04-25
# Time: 16:00 UTC
# Location: #fedora-blocker-review on irc.libera.chat
Hi folks! We don't currently have any blocker or FE bugs proposed, but
just in case any show up, let's schedule a review meeting on Monday. If
there still aren't any bugs to review shortly before the meeting, I'll
cancel it.
If you have time and any show up 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!
