Re: GDM dropped support for running X11 sessions in F42 without a Change?

[Eduard Lucena]

Can we go ahead in time and let kevin to create the gdm-x11 package? We
already know how this is going to be:

- The SIG is going to say they don't have bandwidth, hands or time to
support tickets with problems for x11
- Kevin and a lot of us that still use X11 are going to say that this
change is Fedora specific not upstream
- The SIG is going to say that they don't block
- The whole conversation is going too FESCo
- FESCo is going to rule that the SIG can't block anyone to do what FLOSS
is supposed to be.
- Packages are going to be done and added.

I can't understand what anyone's problem with X11 is. If you don't like it,
fine, don't use it, but stop trying to put it out of Fedora when there are
still people out there using it. Like us in the i3 SIG.

Best regards,
