If, and I say if since I've not tested, this fixes the session restore issues of Plasma 5 then to me it is a *must* for F22 release.
Ditto.
Session restore doesn't seem like a great FE candidate, since people don't usually use sessions on live images. Post-install issues like that can be handled fine with updates; the update will be available as a 0-day if karma'ed.
I suppose I may have mis-understood the question. As I didn't read this as being "live image" centric.
Basically, things that can't be fixed with updates are the prime candidates for blocker/FE status. So, installer bugs, bugs that are visible when booted live, and kernel/X/etc. showstoppers which would prevent you getting an install done.
Issues that are apparent only after install *can* be blocker/FE bugs, but there's a higher bar for it.
I generally don't use/test the Live images all that much. But, if folks use the Live images as a way of deciding if they will use the release and if the Live image supports logging out/in.....then I still feel it is a must.
You *can* log out / log in on the live image, but it's not something that's very commonly used, I don't think.
One question. Would a netinstall eliminate the need to install and then update to get the fix?
A default netinstall would, yes - by default network installs use the updates repository as a package source. You can disable it, but that takes effort.
Immediately after installing from the live image the bug would be present, but it'd be solved on the first update.
OK.... I looked at the link
https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/kf5-plasma-5.10.0-2.fc22
and it seems quite a few packages are updated for this. Is there a repo somewhere with all the packages so that they can be tested now? I don't think they are in updates-testing....at least not when I checked last.
