(tflink, 18:39:46)
* At the moment, the total number of blocker/nth bugs is: (tflink,
18:40:03)
* 14 Proposed Blockers (tflink, 18:40:10)
* 13 Accepted Blockers (tflink, 18:40:10)
* 12 Proposed NTH (tflink, 18:40:10)
* 27 Accepted NTH (tflink, 18:40:10)
* Queued for discussion today are: (tflink, 18:40:25)
* 8 Proposed Blockers (tflink, 18:42:57)
* 10 Proposed NTH (tflink, 18:42:57)
* (889101) AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute
'removeMember' (tflink, 18:43:56)
* LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=889101 (tflink,
18:43:59)
* Proposed Blocker, anaconda, ASSIGNED (tflink, 18:44:01)
* AGREED: 889101 - AcceptedBlocker - Violates the following F18 final
release criterion: "The installer must be able to create and install
to any workable partition layout using any file system offered in a
default installer configuration, LVM, software, hardware or BIOS
RAID, or combination of the above" (tflink, 18:49:13)
* (873468) F18 Beta TC7: sometimes when booting netinst, hub comes up
showing 'Nothing selected' for Installation Source and Software
Selection (tflink, 18:49:18)
* LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=873468 (tflink,
18:49:21)
* Proposed Blocker, anaconda, ASSIGNED (tflink, 18:49:24)
* AGREED: 873468 - RejectedBlocker AcceptedNTH - This doesn't happen
all the time and seems to be limited to slower than expected dhcp
with ipv6, not enough to justify blocking release over. However, it
can't be fixed with an update and a tested fix would be considered
past freeze. Should be at least documented as commonbugs if not
fixed before release (tflink, 18:53:42)
* (889330) crash when reclaiming space from disk containing member of
incomplete md raid0 (tflink, 18:53:52)
* LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=889330 (tflink,
18:53:55)
* Proposed Blocker, anaconda, ASSIGNED (tflink, 18:53:57)
* AGREED: 889330 - AcceptedBlocker - Violation of the following F18
beta release criterion: "The installer's custom partitioning mode
must be capable of the following: Creating, destroying and assigning
mount points to partitions of any specified size using most
commonly-used filesystem types ..." (tflink, 18:57:26)
* (886314) MDRaidError: md_node_from_name failed: [Errno 2] No such file
or directory: '/dev/md/root' (tflink, 18:57:31)
* LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=886314 (tflink,
18:57:34)
* Proposed Blocker, anaconda, NEW (tflink, 18:57:37)
* AGREED: 886314 - RejectedBlocker - It sounds like this issue is not
reproducable on more recent versions and therefore rejected as a
blocker for F18 final. Please re-propose if a reproducing case is
discovered. (tflink, 19:05:47)
* (887539) FormatDestroyError: error wiping old signatures from
/dev/sdb2: 1 (tflink, 19:05:56)
* LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=887539 (tflink,
19:06:00)
* Proposed Blocker, anaconda, NEW (tflink, 19:06:02)
* AGREED: 887539 - RejectedBlocker RejectedNTH - While nasty, this
seems like too much of a corner case to block the release of F18. It
also seems too much of a corner case to take as NTH for F18 -
workaround should be documented (use different hostnames, wipe disks
before install) (tflink, 19:18:26)
* (860022) AttributeError: preconf (tflink, 19:18:31)
* LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=860022 (tflink,
19:18:34)
* Proposed Blocker, anaconda, NEW (tflink, 19:18:36)
* LINK:
http://qa.fedoraproject.org/blockerbugs/milestone/18/final/buglist
(jreznik, 19:26:59)
* AGREED: 860022 - RejectedBlocker - This doesn't seem to be common
enough to justify blocking the release of F18. It is already
accepted as NTH and a tested fix would be considered past freeze.
(tflink, 19:29:45)
* (859867) Keyboard not set in minimal install (tflink, 19:30:37)
* LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=859867 (tflink,
19:30:38)
* Proposed Blocker, anaconda, ASSIGNED (tflink, 19:30:38)
* the original report appears to be fixed and somewhat confused with
other unrelated keymap issues. The bug will be closed but can be
reopened if the original issue still exists (tflink, 19:38:15)
* (889044) need to disable updates-testing for final (tflink, 19:40:59)
* LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=889044 (tflink,
19:40:59)
* AGREED: 889044 - AcceptedBlocker - Violates the following F18 final
release criterion: "A fedora-release package containing the correct
names, information and repository configuration for a final Fedora
release (as opposed to a pre-release) must be present on ISO media
while the appropriately versioned generic-release package must be
available in the online release repository" (tflink, 19:51:20)
* (881624) After Update using fedup default system keyboard changes to
US (tflink, 19:51:41)
* LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=881624 (tflink,
19:51:44)
* Proposed Blocker, fedup, NEW (tflink, 19:51:46)
* AGREED: 881624 - Waiting for testing to confirm suspicions about
this bug. If it turns out that the keymap is not correctly set after
upgrade, this would be a blocker. If the systemd update fixes the
issue to the point where passwords work with a non en-US keymap, it
will be rejected as a blocker (tflink, 20:15:50)
* (889109) missing dependencies for imsettings (tflink, 20:16:01)
* LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=889109 (tflink,
20:16:02)
* Proposed Blocker, imsettings, ON_QA (tflink, 20:16:02)
* AGREED: 889109 - RejectedBlocker - This is a dep issue which was
contained in updates-testing, has already been fixed and wouldn't
affect the release of F18. (tflink, 20:18:12)
* (881670) Provide fedup hook to add x-systemd.device-timeout=0 to mount
options for encrypted file systems that need a passphrase from the
user (tflink, 20:18:17)
* LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=881670 (tflink,
20:18:20)
* Proposed Blocker, systemd, ASSIGNED (tflink, 20:18:23)
* AGREED: 881670 - RejectedBlocker AcceptedNTH - This doesn't seem
severe enough to justify blocking the release of F18 but a tested
fix would be considered after freeze. (tflink, 20:24:07)
* (889562) Console keymap set to "us" if you install with a keymap not
provided by systemd-localed (tflink, 20:24:16)
* LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=889562 (tflink,
20:24:19)
* Proposed Blocker, systemd, NEW (tflink, 20:24:22)
* AGREED: 889562 - AcceptedBlocker AcceptedNTH - We're missing some
data here but from what we do know, this seems to affect enough
locales to justify blocking release of F18 final. If it turns out to
be less severe than it currently appears, it would be rejected as a
blocker for F18 final (tflink, 20:53:26)
* (882212) localectl set-x11-keymap: variant settings does not work
(tflink, 20:53:46)
* LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=882212 (tflink,
20:53:49)
* Proposed Blocker, systemd, ON_QA (tflink, 20:53:51)
* AGREED: 882212 - We don't understand this nearly enough to make a
call on whether this should block release - it is already accepted
as NTH and might be fixed. Will revisit if it continues to be an
issue (tflink, 21:09:58)
* (889352) [i18n] translated string not displayed in Welcome dialog:
"Set keyboard to default layout for selected language." (tflink,
21:12:43)
* LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=889352 (tflink,
21:12:46)
* Proposed Blocker, anaconda, NEW (tflink, 21:12:49)
* AGREED: 889352 - AcceptedBlocker - Violates the following F18 final
release criterion: "All critical path actions on release-blocking
desktop environments should correctly display all sufficiently
complete translations available for use" (tflink, 21:14:47)
* (889585) should not offer to change boot disk from within custom
storage spoke (tflink, 21:14:52)
* LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=889585 (tflink,
21:14:55)
* Proposed Blocker, anaconda, POST (tflink, 21:14:58)
* AGREED: 889585 - AcceptedNTH - Functionality to select the boot disk
should work - since there is no code to do so in the custom
partition spoke and the option exists elsewhere, removing it seems
like a good option. A tested fix would be accepted past freeze.
(tflink, 21:24:11)
* (888030) [i18n] some package set descriptions not translated (tflink,
21:24:20)
* LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=888030 (tflink,
21:24:20)
* Proposed Blocker, comps, NEW (tflink, 21:24:20)
* AGREED: 888030 - RejectedBlocker AcceptedNTH - This doesn't seem
severe enough to block release but a tested fix would be considered
past freeze. Since comps changes go through without packages, this
bug can be closed. (tflink, 21:27:53)
* (873103) Chinese input does not work after installation (tflink,
21:36:50)
* LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=873103 (tflink,
21:36:51)
* Proposed NTH, anaconda, ON_QA (tflink, 21:36:51)
* AGREED: 873103 - AcceptedNTH - Not a release blocking bug since it
only affects one language but it can't be fixed with an update and
there are lots of users who use the Chinese locales. (tflink,
21:39:12)
* (889366) "Don\'t install the latest available software updates.
Install the default versions provided by the install source above."
checkbox does nothing, media installs don\'t default to installing
updates (tflink, 21:39:16)
* LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=889366 (tflink,
21:39:20)
* Proposed NTH, anaconda, POST (tflink, 21:39:23)
* AGREED: 889366 - AcceptedNTH - This doesn't violate any F18 release
criteria but features should work if they are displayed as
available. (tflink, 21:41:28)
* (889570) Add help / instruction text for custom spoke (tflink,
21:41:40)
* LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=889570 (tflink,
21:41:41)
* Proposed NTH, anaconda, POST (tflink, 21:41:41)
* AGREED: 889570 - AcceptedNTH - This doesn't violate any F18 release
criteria but useful help messages for custom partitioning would
hopefully help reduce confusion when doing custom layouts. (tflink,
21:44:10)
* (872851) [abrt] rhythmbox-2.98-4.fc18: Process /usr/bin/rhythmbox was
killed by signal 11 (SIGSEGV) (tflink, 21:44:14)
* LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=872851 (tflink,

(nirik, 21:55:02)
* AGREED: 872851 - RejectedNTH - While this bug would affect live
images, the problematic plugin isn't enabled by default and the
needed change is in pygobject which seems a little too risky to be
changing so late. (tflink, 21:59:47)
* Open Floor (tflink, 22:03:23)
* No date set for the next blocker review meeting, will more than
likely be after 2013-01-01 (tflink, 22:05:07)

EMEA ambassadors meeting 2012-12-19 minutes
by Christoph Wickert
I just had the pleasure to host the biggest (25 ambassadors, 23 from
EMEA!) and longest (2h) EMEA ambassadors meeting of all times. When I
see that the ambassadors community is in a good shape, I think I must
have done something right as FAmSCo chair and meeting host. Thanks
everybody for coming, it means a lot to me!

EMEA ambassadors meeting 2012-XX-XX minutes
by Christoph Wickert
I just had the pleasure to host the biggest (25 ambassadors, 23 from
EMEA!) and longest (2h) EMEA ambassadors meeting of all times. When I
see that the ambassadors community is in a good shape, I think I must
have done something right as FAmSCo chair and meeting host. Thanks
everybody for coming, it means a lot to me!

* LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=877658 (tflink,
17:17:59)
* Proposed Blocker, anaconda, NEW (tflink, 17:18:02)
* AGREED: 877658 - AcceptedBlocker - Violation of the following F18
final release criterion: "All critical path actions on
release-blocking desktop environments should correctly display all
sufficiently complete translations available for use" (tflink,
17:21:57)

17:22:11)
* Proposed Blocker, anaconda, MODIFIED (tflink, 17:22:14)
* AGREED: 883699 - AcceptedBlocker - Violates the following F18 final
release criterion when modifying any volume name in custom
partitioning: " The installer must be able to create and install to
any workable partition layout using any file system offered in a

* LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=888089 (tflink,
17:28:14)
* Proposed Blocker, anaconda, POST (tflink, 17:28:14)
* AGREED: 883699 - AcceptedBlocker - Violates the following F18 beta
release criterion: "The installer's custom partitioning mode must be
capable of the following ... Rejecting obviously invalid operations
without crashing" (tflink, 17:31:54)
* (886061) 'fedora' or 'updates' repository error must be fatal,

17:32:05)
* Proposed Blocker, fedup, NEW (tflink, 17:32:07)
* AGREED: 886061 - RejectedBlocker - With the changes in fedup coming
for F18, this bug is no longer as serious as it was and thus, does
not qualify for release blocking status for F18 final (tflink,
17:37:47)
* (875846) [i18n] "ON" and "OFF" not translated in switches on DVD
(gtk30.mo not on DVD) (tflink, 17:37:56)

complete translations available for use" (tflink, 17:43:09)

* LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=872851 (tflink,
17:43:22)
* Proposed Blocker, rhythmbox, NEW (tflink, 17:43:24)
* AGREED: 872851 - RejectedBlocker - While rhythmbox is a default
application, this bug requires enabling of a non-default plugin and
thus does not qualify for release blocking status for F18 final.
(tflink, 17:46:52)
* (861280) KDE Crashes or Hangs After Moving Konqueror Window Quickly
(tflink, 17:47:00)

17:47:03)
* Proposed Blocker, xorg-x11-drv-nouveau, NEW (tflink, 17:47:06)
* AGREED: 861280 - RejectedBlocker - This is very HW limited and thus,
does not qualify for release blocking status. (tflink, 17:49:59)
* (860022) AttributeError: preconf (tflink, 17:50:06)
* LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=860022 (tflink,
17:50:06)
* Proposed Blocker, yum, NEW (tflink, 17:50:06)
* AGREED: 860022 - AcceptedNTH - We need more information on how many
repos are being used to trigger this and if the updates.img from
comment#20 works before deciding on blocker status. However, this is
bad enough to warrant NTH status - a tested fix would be considered
past freeze. (tflink, 17:58:13)

18:02:35)
* Proposed Blocker, dracut, MODIFIED (tflink, 18:02:38)
* AGREED: 860525 - It still isn't clear how this impacts NFS installs,
need more information before deciding on blocker status (tflink,
18:11:13)

(tflink, 18:11:17)

18:11:20)
* Proposed Blocker, systemd, POST (tflink, 18:11:23)
* AGREED: 882212 - AcceptedNTH - This does affect upgrades with yum
which aren't recommended but aren't uncommon. A tested fix would be
considered past freeze. (tflink, 18:17:49)
* (886647) Anaconda throws exception trying to setup network if
non-existing network --device is specified in kickstart (tflink,
18:18:05)
* LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=886647 (tflink,
18:18:09)
* Proposed Blocker, anaconda, POST (tflink, 18:18:11)
* AGREED: 886647 - RejectedBlocker AcceptedNTH - This is too much of a
corner case to take as a blocker but it can't be fixed with an
update and a non-trivial number of people could hit this. A tested
fix would be considered past freeze. (tflink, 18:21:33)
* (888107) Shell leaking memory with every interaction with the panel
(tflink, 18:31:04)
* LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=888107 (tflink,
18:31:07)
* Proposed NTH, gnome-shell, NEW (tflink, 18:31:10)
* AGREED: 888107 - AcceptedNTH - This isn't quite a blocker but causes
problems for lives, especially in lower memory situations. A tested
fix would be considered past freeze. (tflink, 18:35:11)
* (830181) Logout/shutdown/restart should be inhibited while Apper is
performing updates (tflink, 18:35:21)
* LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=830181 (tflink,
18:35:24)
* Proposed NTH, PackageKit, ASSIGNED (tflink, 18:35:26)
* AGREED: 830181 - RejectedNTH - Taking PK fixes this close to release
is unwise and since this bug wouldn't affect live images and thus
could be fixed with an update - rejected as NTH for F18 final
(tflink, 18:41:52)
* (875567) anaconda doesnt set keyboard layout for LUKS password at
reboot (tflink, 18:42:01)
* LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=875567 (tflink,
18:42:04)
* Proposed NTH, anaconda, MODIFIED (tflink, 18:42:07)
* AGREED: 875567 - AcceptedNTH - This is borderline blocker since LUKS
passwords are affected but not all installations are affected by
this. A tested fix would be considered past freeze. (tflink,
18:49:57)
* (876916) anaconda claims I don't have enough free space when I have
(tflink, 18:51:46)
* LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=876916 (tflink,
18:51:49)
* Proposed NTH, anaconda, NEW (tflink, 18:51:51)
* AGREED: 876916 - AcceptedNTH - This isn't critical but it would be
good to have effective minimum space detection and this can't be
fixed with an update. A tested fix would be considered past freeze.
(tflink, 18:56:55)
* (882233) Chinese (Taiwan) shows Simplified Chinese instead of
Traditional Chinese at left (native language view) side (tflink,
18:57:06)
* LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=882233 (tflink,
18:57:09)
* Proposed NTH, anaconda, ASSIGNED (tflink, 18:57:12)
* AGREED: 882233 - We would like to have more information on how bugs
like this have been handled in the past - there isn't a clear
universal answer which all parties would like. Will revisit when
there's more info. (tflink, 19:16:13)
* (886463) Keyboard layout switching is confusing on LiveCD (tflink,
19:16:22)
* LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=886463 (tflink,
19:16:22)
* Proposed NTH, anaconda, MODIFIED (tflink, 19:16:22)
* AGREED: 886463 - AcceptedNTH - Adding the warning message seems like
a good idea without much risk. A tested fix would be considered past
freeze. (tflink, 19:21:48)
* (887112) Existing Windows 7 appears under \'Unknown\' in Manual
Partitioning (tflink, 19:21:55)
* LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=887112 (tflink,
19:21:58)
* Proposed NTH, anaconda, NEW (tflink, 19:22:00)
* AGREED: 887112 - RejectedNTH - While this might be a nice visual
enhancement, it isn't a huge deal and represents a bit more risk
than we'd like to see so late in the release. (tflink, 19:27:12)
* (888112) Yellow error display bar is incapable of wrapping long
errors, they are too wide and overflow the side of the screen
(tflink, 19:27:20)
* LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=888112 (tflink,
19:27:23)
* Proposed NTH, anaconda, VERIFIED (tflink, 19:27:26)
* AGREED: 888112 - AcceptedNTH - This is a very useful visual
enhancement without much risk and can't be fixed with an update. A
tested fix would be considered past freeze. (tflink, 19:31:14)
* (888603) Custom partitioning shouldn't let you set /boot as btrfs
(tflink, 19:31:24)
* LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=888603 (tflink,
19:31:27)
* Proposed NTH, anaconda, NEW (tflink, 19:31:29)
* AGREED: 888603 - AcceptedNTH - This is a safety check to disallow a
non-obviously invalid operation and is relatively low risk. A tested
fix would be considered past freeze. (tflink, 19:33:30)
* (886556) missing icons in yumex & apper (tflink, 19:33:43)
* LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=886556 (tflink,
19:33:43)
* Proposed NTH, comps-extras, NEW (tflink, 19:33:43)
* AGREED: 886556 - RejectedNTH - While this is a polish issue that
would be good to fix, it's late in the release and the risk of
taking this fix so late is not clearly low (could affect PK, apper
etc.). (tflink, 19:43:44)
* (855697) No way to change the language on Live (tflink, 19:44:38)
* LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=855697 (tflink,
19:44:38)
* Proposed NTH, control-center, NEW (tflink, 19:44:38)
* AGREED: 855697 - AcceptedNTH - While there are a couple ideas in the
bug, there is an available fix upstream to add a logout button to
the language/region applet - a tested fix would be considered past
freeze but only if it is the fix from upstream - other fixes would
need to be reproposed for NTH status (tflink, 19:51:27)
* (873849) no keyboard shortcut for toggling keyboard layouts (tflink,
19:51:34)
* LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=873849 (tflink,
19:51:34)
* Proposed NTH, gnome-settings-daemon, NEW (tflink, 19:51:35)
* AGREED: 873849 - It isn't completely clear what the fix for this
might be or whether there is developer support for a fix. Will
re-visit when more info is available (tflink, 19:59:59)
* (886077) Custom shortcut super+'char' writes the char or does nothing
instead of execute demanded action (tflink, 20:00:13)
* LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=886077 (tflink,
20:00:16)
* Proposed NTH, gnome-settings-daemon, NEW (tflink, 20:00:18)
* AGREED: 886077 - RejectedNTH - While this is an inconvenience, it
involves setting custom actions which is unlikely to affect live
images and thus can be fixed with an update. (tflink, 20:08:43)
* (888395) 3.6.11 update for kernel (tflink, 20:08:51)
* LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=888395 (tflink,
20:08:51)
* Proposed NTH, kernel, NEW (tflink, 20:08:51)
* AGREED: 888395 - RejectedNTH - This would only fix media sourced
upgrades for a very short time and would not affect network sourced
upgrades. Since there are no other critical reasons to upgrade the
released kernel, rejected as NTH for F18 final. (tflink, 20:12:14)
* (872162) error creating partitions on LVM volume created with
allocation=0 (tflink, 20:12:22)
* LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=872162 (tflink,
20:12:25)
* Proposed NTH, libvirt, ASSIGNED (tflink, 20:12:27)
* AGREED: 872162 - RejectedNTH - This involves VM creation which is
not likely to affect live images and isn't the default path for VM
creation anyways. It could be fixed with an update and doesn't need
to be pulled past freeze. (tflink, 20:16:10)
* (884878) FirewallConfig in imgcreate/kickstart.py requires FirewallD
(tflink, 20:16:18)
* LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=884878 (tflink,
20:16:21)
* Proposed NTH, livecd-tools, NEW (tflink, 20:16:24)
* AGREED: 884878 - AcceptedNTH - Enabling spins to ship without
firewalld is desirable as long as the fix isn't too bad. A tested
fix would be considered past freeze. (tflink, 20:19:53)
* (821221) ibus-setup language selection entries shadowed out (tflink,
20:20:01)
* LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=821221 (tflink,
20:20:01)
* Proposed NTH, oxygen-gtk3, NEW (tflink, 20:20:01)
* AGREED: 821221 - RejectedNTH - There appear to be no extra IMEs on
the KDE live media and thus, this would not affect lives and could
be fixed with an update. (tflink, 20:35:58)
* (875430) After installing unable to boot Fedora 18 with virtio-scsi
after successfully installing using virtio-scsi driver (have to use
virtio-blk to boot) (tflink, 20:36:08)
* LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=875430 (tflink,
20:36:11)
* Proposed NTH, qemu, NEW (tflink, 20:36:14)
* AGREED: 875430 - AcceptedNTH - Allowing non-primary storage drivers
in a VM would be preferred and a relatively small, tested fix would
be considered past freeze. (tflink, 20:41:29)
* (886208) systemd should mount efivarfs by default on UEFI machines
(tflink, 20:41:37)
* LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=886208 (tflink,

* LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=886199 (tflink,
20:48:07)
* AGREED: 886208 - RejectedNTH - This wouldn't affect the released
version of F18 since it's for personal/private signing of shim and
could be fixed with an update. (tflink, 20:52:16)
* (879922) Fails to open from the Xfce menu. (tflink, 20:56:04)

* Proposed NTH, xfce4-panel, NEW (tflink, 20:56:04)
* AGREED: 879922 - AcceptedNTH - Prevents system-config-date from
working on XFCE which is the default date config mechanism for XFCE.
(tflink, 21:02:52)

21:03:04)
* Proposed NTH, xorg-x11-drv-ati, NEW (tflink, 21:03:06)
* AGREED: 849347 - RejectedNTH - This seems rather limited in the HW
affected and doesn't happen all of the time - it's too late in the
release process to be taking non-showstopper bugs for F18. (tflink,

* AGREED: 816073, 820154, 816389, 884274 - AcceptedNTH - Due to the
nature of these changes, they cannot be pushed post-release due to
updates policy, are unlikely to break anything else and contain
security fixes. Builds would be considered past freeze if they had
enough karma. (tflink, 21:17:27)

F18 Final Blocker Bug Review #5 Minutes
by Tim Flink
=============================================
#fedora-bugzappers: f18final-blocker-review-5
=============================================
The review today started as an extension of the QA meeting earlier and
thus, didn't have an announcement beforehand.
Since we're running out of time before F18 is supposed to be released,
we're going to be having daily blocker review meetings (capped at 3
hours) until we get through the list.
Minutes: http://meetbot.fedoraproject.org/fedora-bugzappers/2012-12-17/f18final-bl...

Meeting summary
---------------
* Roll Call (tflink, 16:40:44)
* Introduction (tflink, 16:46:53)
* Our purpose in this meeting is to review proposed blocker and
nice-to-have bugs and decide whether to accept them, and to monitor
the progress of fixing existing accepted blocker and nice-to-have
bugs. (tflink, 16:46:58)
* We'll be following the process outlined at: (tflink, 16:47:04)

* 38 Proposed NTH (tflink, 16:47:58)
* 9 Accepted NTH (tflink, 16:47:58)
* 13 Proposed Blockers marked Ready for Discussion (tflink, 16:47:59)
* (883075) fedup upgrading is too quiet (tflink, 16:49:38)
* LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=883075 (tflink,
16:49:38)
* Proposed Blocker, fedup-dracut, ASSIGNED (tflink, 16:49:38)
* AGREED: 883075 - AcceptedBlocker - Violates the following F18 final
release criteria in spirit due to lack of user-facing progress
information: "For each one of the release-blocking package sets, it
must be possible to successfully complete an upgrade from a fully
updated installation of the previous stable Fedora release with that
package set installed, using all officially recommended upgrade
mechanisms..." (tflink, 16:54:00)
* (887236) UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xe6 in
position 3: ordinal not in range(128) (tflink, 16:54:06)
* LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=887236 (tflink,
16:54:09)
* Proposed Blocker, anaconda, NEW (tflink, 16:54:12)
* AGREED: 887236 - AcceptedBlocker - Violates the following F18 final
release criterion for several well-used non-english languages: "The
installer must be able to complete an installation using all
supported interfaces" (tflink, 16:57:58)
* (886502) create grub.cfg even when not installing bootloader (tflink,
16:58:02)
* LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=886502 (tflink,
16:58:04)
* Proposed Blocker, anaconda, NEW (tflink, 16:58:07)
* AGREED: 886502 - RejectedBlocker AcceptedNTH - This doesn't clearly
violate any F18 release criteria but it would help multibooters if
we generate the config during install w/o bootloader and this can't
be fixed with a post-release update. A tested fix would be
considered past freeze. (tflink, 17:03:02)
* (869841) attempts to resize ufs partitions (tflink, 17:03:08)
* LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=869841 (tflink,
17:03:08)
* Proposed Blocker, anaconda, POST (tflink, 17:03:08)
* LINK: http://www.fpaste.org/tRNH/raw/ (fenrus02, 17:07:47)
* AGREED: 869841 - RejectedBlocker AcceptedNTH - While this is a
technical violation of the release criteria, it seems to be a bit
too much of a corner case to justify blocking release for. However,
it can't be fixed with an update post-release and a tested fix would
be considered past freeze (tflink, 17:30:39)
* (875944) Shrink function in 'Reclaim space' dialog does not allow user
to specify target size, automatically picks smallest possible size
(tflink, 17:30:52)
* LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=875944 (tflink,
17:30:55)
* Proposed Blocker, anaconda, NEW (tflink, 17:36:28)
* AGREED: 875944 - AcceptedBlocker - Violates the following F18 final
release criteria by making other installed OSs so small, they are
practically unusable after a relatively short time: "The installer
must be able to install into free space alongside an existing clean
single-partition Windows installation and either install a
bootloader which can boot into the Windows installation, or leave
the Windows bootloader untouched and working" (tflink, 17:37:49)
* (885385) Strange race in livecd creation (tflink, 17:40:28)
* LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=885385 (tflink,
17:40:28)
* Proposed Blocker, livecd-tools, ON_QA (tflink, 17:40:28)
* AGREED: 885385 - RejectedBlocker AcceptedNTH - This doesn't cause
compose failures every time and thus isn't enough to block release.
However, getting reliable composes is important and a tested fix
would be considered past freeze. (tflink, 17:46:58)
* (886647) Anaconda throws exception trying to setup network (tflink,
17:47:02)
* LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=886647 (tflink,
17:47:04)
* Proposed Blocker, anaconda, NEW (tflink, 17:47:06)
* AGREED: 886647 - While potentially serious, there is not currently
enough information to make a decision on blocker status. Will
revisit when more information is available. (tflink, 17:52:23)
* (886061) core fedora repository error must be fatal, otherwise the
upgraded system might be broken heavily (tflink, 17:52:32)
* LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=886061 (tflink,
17:52:35)
* Proposed Blocker, fedup, NEW (tflink, 17:52:37)

18:13:20)
* LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=886705 (tflink,
18:13:20)
* Proposed Blocker, spin-kickstarts, NEW (tflink, 18:13:20)
* AGREED: 886705 - RejectedBlocker AcceptedNTH - This doesn't clearly
violate any of the F18 release criteria and thus is rejected as a
blocker. However, the livecd cannot be updated post-release so a
tested fix would be considered past freeze. (tflink, 18:26:46)
* (887363) cloud-init 0.7.1 change prevents creation of ec2-user
(tflink, 18:27:16)

final release criterion for EC2 images: "The release must boot

This does not include any issues limited to the release functioning

* LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=876789 is the
other bug (adamw, 18:38:59)

of #876789 before making a decision on blocker status. will re-visit
later (tflink, 18:44:00)

the filesystem, broken Windows install (tflink, 18:44:11)

release criterion by blocking the creation of cloud images: "The

freeze. (tflink, 19:31:58)
* (886733) live images built with livecd-creator 18.13 have major
SELinux problems (SELinux is preventing /usr/libexec/colord from

xen (adamw, 19:39:23)
* AGREED: 886733 - AcceptedNTH - while not absolutely critical, it
would make a positive difference in the livecds and is not entirely
fixable post-release. A tested fix would be considered past freeze.

* AGREED: 886963 - RejectedNTH - While the packaging bug mentioned
here would be enough for NTH, it would need to be separated out by

components. Would re-consider for a separated out fix (tflink,

19:03:58 * abadger1999 here
19:04:06 <nirik> any new folks, or apprentices with questions?
19:04:16 <maayke> hi guys, i'm new here. I'm Linux System Admin and i would like to help with some tasks. I've been using Linux: RedHat(on servers) and Fedora since 2006, and other for a few years before that. I'm interested in sysadmin tasks.
19:04:39 <nirik> excellent. welcome maayke.
19:04:51 <maayke> thanks
19:04:53 <nirik> please see me in #fedora-admin after the meeting and I can get you setup in our apprentice group.
19:05:06 <maayke> ok, thanks
19:05:22 <nirik> any other new folks?
19:06:07 <nirik> ok, lets move on then... please do chime in anytime with questions or comments. ;)
19:06:09 <nirik> #topic Applications status / discussion
19:06:17 <nirik> any applications news this week or upcoming?
19:06:30 <nirik> we are in final freeze, but staging work is always open. ;)
19:07:25 <threebean> I've been trying to speed up the fedora-packages app and have some success with a new lib called dogpile.cache (python-dogpile-cache).
19:07:31 <nirik> I know threebean and lmacken have been working on the packages app and in particular it's bug handling page
19:07:36 * threebean nods
19:07:37 <nirik> jinx. ;)
19:08:01 <threebean> nirik: we applied it to the whole app; now everything's sped up, not just bugs. :)
19:08:06 <nirik> oh, I can share some info about askbot here... we are behind on versions, so I am trying to update it to the newest upstream.
19:08:13 <threebean> we'll probably deploy to stg soon so people can poke at it.
19:08:19 <SmootherFrOgZ> abadger1999: do you have things to add to fas otherwise I think we can start push 0.8.16 to stg
19:08:28 <nirik> sadly, the new version requires 2 new packages. One of them I just branched for epel and should be fine.
19:08:51 <nirik> the other even more sadly, has 0 license info. I mailed the author, but have had no response.
19:09:11 <nirik> threebean: cool! could this apply to some of our other apps too?
19:09:29 <threebean> nirik: definitely.
19:09:37 <abadger1999> SmootherFrOgZ: I'd like to get some changes in surrounding the openid problem we had yesterday.
19:09:39 <nirik> nice.
19:09:56 <abadger1999> SmootherFrOgZ: But I can finish those today if you want to work on getting new fas to stg tomorrow/this weekend.
19:10:52 <SmootherFrOgZ> abadger1999: nods. I can wait this weekend or even next week if needed.
19:10:53 <abadger1999> threebean: how outdated does the bugz cache get using dogpile?
19:11:09 <threebean> abadger1999: we can configure it from puppet, but I have it set to 300 seconds locally right now.
19:11:35 <abadger1999> threebean: thinking about the workflow of, open bugz, open a page per open bug. work on some set of bugs. Close. Refresh bugz page to see overview of what's left.
19:11:46 <abadger1999> threebean: sounds like that will work fine.
19:12:00 <threebean> cool
19:12:12 <nirik> should we add that it's cached to the page?
19:12:30 <threebean> nirik: good idea.. we can stick that in the footer.
19:12:33 <abadger1999> nirik: that would be a ggod idea.
19:12:40 <nirik> ie, 'this page is refreshed every 300 seconds' or something.
19:13:23 <nirik> also in app news, pingou had: "I hope to release fedocal 0.1.0 alpha this week-end :)"
19:13:34 <threebean> \o/
19:14:35 <smooge> yay
19:14:52 <nirik> lmacken: you around? have you had any chance to get anywhere with bodhi 2 recently? I wonder if it it's in enough state we could setup a test instance for people to see it? (in sight, in mind and all that). :)
19:15:26 <nirik> just a thought.
19:15:33 * nirik looks for any other application side news.
19:16:19 <nirik> oh, we have a test instance setup for a gallery3. I've not gotten to doing anything on it... if there are folks with cycles that want to work on it, please let me know.
19:16:22 <lmacken> nirik: there's not much to see right now other than bare-bones grids and json apis, but I'll try and get something staging ready shortly
19:16:30 <nirik> I think we were waiting a bit for relrod to come up with a php fas plugin for it.
19:17:03 <nirik> lmacken: it would be cool if we had at least something ready for fudcon... and could get off the 'keep tweaking bodhi1' treadmill. ;)
19:17:12 <lmacken> nirik: yeah, exactly
19:17:59 <smooge> threebean, lmacken, the swap problem on packages... do we need to add more ram?
19:18:16 <lmacken> smooge: it doesn't seem like the swap is being used because it is out of memory
19:18:18 <nirik> I don't think that would help, it's consuming all memory+swap
19:18:24 <lmacken> someone suggested tweaking the swapiness
19:18:31 <nirik> I thought it was using it all.
19:18:51 <lmacken> nirik: it had a bunch free when I was poking at it yesterday
19:18:58 <lmacken> not sure... collectd would know?
19:18:58 <smooge> when I got onto the box memory was full and swap was full.. but there are probably multiple issues
19:18:59 <nirik> huh.
19:19:02 * nirik looks at collectd
19:19:10 <nirik> https://admin.fedoraproject.org/collectd/bin/index.cgi?hostname=packages0...
19:19:59 <nirik> so I think it's def just leaking.
19:20:04 <nirik> or not freeing up things.
19:20:13 <nirik> is that wsgi?
19:20:23 <threebean> on packages01, it looks like it starts a midnight..
19:20:27 <threebean> it that when the cronjob runs?
19:20:32 <threebean> cronjobs
19:21:14 <nirik> daily should be 4am
19:21:36 <nirik> anyhow, we should fix that... restarting it is anoying. ;)
19:21:47 <nirik> any other apps news?
19:22:25 <nirik> #topic Sysadmin status / discussion
19:22:33 <nirik> ok, on sysadmin side of things... lets see.
19:22:47 <nirik> we have some new boxes coming in, but will need to get them racked before we can do much with them.
19:22:58 <lmacken> threebean: yeah, I think the cron jobs are probably pushing it over.
19:23:04 <lmacken> giving packages01 a little more ram couldn't hurt :)
19:23:21 <nirik> we still have 3 bits of storage to migrate. I am hoping to do that after f18 is final...
19:23:35 <nirik> our wiki attachments nfs (should be a very short downtime for wiki)
19:24:01 <nirik> and our 2 iscsi volumes (should be migrating 2 machines (shutdown, bring up, shutdown again, move back))
19:24:29 <nirik> there's also a network outage scheduled for phx2 for early jan... (at least I think it still is, haven't heard)
19:24:37 <smooge> Jan 5
19:24:41 <nirik> yeah
19:24:42 <smooge> I believe
19:25:03 <nirik> thats the last I heard.
19:26:07 <nirik> I did some work on making trac faster. I found one nasty bottleneck. I need to adjust all the trac instances for that (it was syncing git repos on every page load)
19:26:34 <threebean> on every HTTP request?
19:26:43 <nirik> smooge: have you heard anything yet about the i2 download move stuff?
19:26:55 <smooge> no :/
19:27:05 <smooge> sometime soon ish.. maybe
19:27:06 <nirik> threebean: every one to trac. It would sync the git repo, then process the sql or whatever for the page load...
19:27:19 <threebean> man. wow.
19:27:25 <nirik> yeah, crazy.
19:27:40 <nirik> I guess to keep it's source browser up to date...
19:27:49 <nirik> you can disable it with a simple ini add.
19:28:14 <nirik> makes things about 1/2 as much loading time.
19:28:18 * mdomsch lurks
19:28:47 <nirik> anything else sysadmin side?
19:28:59 <nirik> #topic Private Cloud status update / discussion
19:29:13 <nirik> we continue to work with the cloud setup and ansible repo... ;)
19:29:47 <nirik> I suspect we cna look at things at fudcon and see if we can knock out the rest to make them 'production' ready
19:30:28 <SmootherFrOgZ> nirik: sure thing ;)
19:30:38 <nirik> SmootherFrOgZ: you gonna make it to fudcon?
19:30:44 <SmootherFrOgZ> nirik: yep
19:30:47 <mdomsch> network outage 3 days before release?
19:30:47 <nirik> awesome.
19:30:47 <mdomsch> ugh
19:30:51 <mdomsch> lousy timing
19:30:54 <nirik> mdomsch: yeah, I am not happy about that.
19:31:02 <nirik> mdomsch: they claim it will be <15min for us
19:31:08 <mdomsch> k
19:31:17 <nirik> but you know how things go...
19:31:39 <nirik> ok, moving on to upcoming items:
19:31:48 <nirik> #topic Upcoming Tasks/Items
19:31:48 <nirik> #info 2012-12-11 to 2013-01-08 F18 Final Freeze

19:31:56 <nirik> anything we need to note or schedule?
19:32:38 <mdomsch> oooh, I want in on the colorado lunch. :-)
19:32:41 * nirik notes the colorado rh lunch is on there because I will be away from keyboard for a while that day driving down to it and back. ;)
19:32:52 <nirik> mdomsch: you gonna be in co then? :)
19:33:02 * mdomsch passes through Denver 12/29
19:33:33 <nirik> I'll be around if you want to grab a beer somewhere. ;)
19:33:35 <mdomsch> how confident is rel-eng / QA on hitting 01/08 release?
19:33:55 <nirik> There's a lot of blockers right now, but they are knocking them out... hard to say
19:34:24 <nirik> #topic Open Floor
19:34:36 <nirik> anyone have anything for open floor? ideas? suggestions? rants?
19:35:07 <mdomsch> MM grew a new set of repository pointers this afternoon: https://mirrors.fedoraproject.org/mirrorlist?repo=fedora-install-18&arch=...
19:35:11 <mdomsch> for fedup's use
19:35:23 <nirik> cool. ;)
19:35:24 <mdomsch> just DB items, no code changes, so it doesn't break freeze
19:35:46 <mdomsch> is there a list of stuff to accomplish at FUDCon?
19:36:04 <nirik> there's not, but perhaps we should make one.
19:36:27 * mdomsch also raises 3 cheers for the 2FA team
19:36:51 <nirik> yeah, I'm glad we have that in place now.
19:37:32 <nirik> and we will probibly want to discuss where we want to expand it to down the road.
19:37:39 <nirik> (if anywhere)
19:37:46 <abadger1999> <nod>
19:38:20 <abadger1999> Due to how well the fad worked, one thought was to use fudcon to plan for some fads that we should have over the course of hte year.
19:38:26 <smooge> RH lunch in CO?
19:38:36 <nirik> smooge: yep. You could drive up! :)
19:38:41 <smooge> next you will get an office!!!
19:38:57 <nirik> abadger1999: yeah, agreed...
19:39:16 <SmootherFrOgZ> abadger1999: +1
19:40:20 <nirik> where was that wiki page we had about things to do from the last fudcon?
19:40:28 <nirik> I wanted to make a new version of it for the next one.
19:41:09 <nirik> oh well, will just make a new page.
19:41:31 * mdomsch wants some real-world examples of using the new message bus, so I can hook MM up to it
19:41:58 <nirik> we can def provide that.
19:43:02 <nirik> anyhow, I will make a fudcon planning page of some kind and we can gather ideas and discuss them next week... hash out the big sessions we want to have.
19:43:45 <nirik> ok, anything else? or shall we call it a meeting ?
19:43:59 <nirik> mdomsch: drop by #fedora-apps and threebean can point you at docs for fedmsg
19:44:15 <threebean> mdomsch: I missed your comment. yeah, I can show you. :)
19:45:38 <nirik> ok, thanks for coming everyone.
19:45:45 <smooge> okie dokie
19:45:49 <nirik> do continue in #fedora-admin, #fedora-noc and #fedora-apps!

17:02:45 <nirik> ha
17:02:55 * BobJensen
17:04:16 <nirik> ok, I guess we should go ahead... probibly a short meeting.
17:04:23 <nirik> #topic Week in review
17:04:23 <nirik> http://fedora.theglaserfamily.org/ircstats/fedora-weekly.html
17:04:36 <nirik> anyone have anything to note from the previous week?
17:04:39 <nirik> trends, etc?
17:05:40 <nirik> more folks on f18... but I haven't seen all that much common issues, etc yet.
17:05:42 <BobJensen> underscores: It's about time you showed up
17:05:48 <dcr226> Bob @ #2...hardcore
17:05:57 <nirik> it will be interesting to see how well fedup works for people.
17:06:15 <BobJensen> dcr226: it's hard work keeping up with the SMS crowd
17:06:43 <dcr226> BobJensen, SMS crowd?
17:06:47 <BobJensen> Yeah, I was hoping to give fedup a run yesterday
17:07:01 <BobJensen> But I played Bingo instead
17:07:02 * nirik is optomistic that it will be a nice step up from preupgrade.
17:07:27 <BobJensen> the devs of fedup want our input as things come up
17:07:58 <BobJensen> wwoods, and... damn I forgot the other nick
17:08:15 <wwoods> nope, just me
17:08:17 <nirik> tflink has been working on it from the qa side. ;)
17:08:29 <nirik> but yeah, just wwoods, uberhacker. ;)
17:08:29 <BobJensen> nirik: that is the nick
17:08:59 <wwoods> bug creator AND bug fixer
17:09:15 <BobJensen> If we see something lets get them the info so we can make it a viable tool, a better user experience than preFAILupgrade was.
17:09:19 <wwoods> gatekeeper AND keymaster
17:09:19 <nirik> brewer, patriot? ;)
17:09:32 <wwoods> don't forget gentleman and scholar
17:09:50 <nirik> :)
17:10:16 <wwoods> anyway I should put up some pictures of the in-progress UI for review
17:10:17 <nirik> wwoods: so, standard drill, get folks to file bugs, etc?
17:10:37 <BobJensen> wwoods: I'll try getting a run at an upgrade of a cloned system here, on hardware for you today or tomorrow.
17:10:39 <wwoods> well, yeah, but familiarize yourselves with known bugs / common problems first
17:11:10 <pingou> wwoods: there are ? three machine with fedup and 0 problem for me :]
17:11:12 <wwoods> getting a lot of CLOSED NOTABUG reports that turn out to be things like "user had a power outage during the install that he somehow didn't notice"
17:11:34 <wwoods> or "user is running virtualbox and the drivers are out of date so the system seems to hang on reboot"
17:12:13 <nirik> always fun.
17:12:26 <wwoods> the missing plymouth progress screen is the most obvious thing right now - patch is upstream, needs a new plymouth build and rebuilt upgrade.img to fix
17:12:46 <wwoods> so 'til then, "plymouth.splash=fedup" is a good idea
17:13:02 <wwoods> I guess I could patch the F17 package to add that, for now
17:13:21 <BobJensen> wwoods: Links for known issues and general instructions?
17:13:28 <nirik> right now the upgrade.img from beta is getting used?
17:13:38 <wwoods> nirik: yeah
17:13:52 <wwoods> general instructions, um. I know there's tflink's testing instructions/notes somewhere
17:14:00 * nirik has some links, just a sec.
17:14:10 <nirik> http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FedUp
17:14:24 <nirik> https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA%3AFedora_18_Upgrade_Testing
17:14:49 <wwoods> yeah, the first link has the right info
17:14:57 <nirik> so, we will still be using the beta img until after f18 release I guess. ;( so yeah, a f17 package with the splash might be good.
17:15:02 <wwoods> and --instrepo won't be required once mirrormanager changes happen
17:15:08 <digitalknight> hello all,when do we expect the meeting to start?
17:15:36 <BobJensen> digitalknight: Depending on what meeting... 15 minutes ago
17:15:51 <nirik> digitalknight: the irc support sig meeting is on right now. if you mean the infra meeting thats not for a few hours.
17:16:45 <BobJensen> wwoods: Thanks for the input Will
17:16:46 <nirik> anyhow, we will see how things go. ;)
17:16:55 <nirik> #info test fedup, get folks to report bugs.
17:17:30 <nirik> anything else on fedup or for week in review?
17:18:05 <wwoods> also keep track of when it works *right* so I don't feel so bad (ps thanks pingou! :D)
17:18:08 <digitalknight> oh sorry :)
17:18:13 <digitalknight> I am here for infra meeting
17:19:04 <BobJensen> Moving on?
17:19:25 <nirik> yeah... we have two tickets. we discussed them a bit last week, but there was only 2 folks here, so I didn't want to close them yet.
17:19:31 <nirik> #topic ticket #132 Sick of "you want me to support someone, pay me" attitude in #fedora
17:19:31 <nirik> https://fedorahosted.org/irc-support-sig/ticket/132
17:19:56 <BobJensen> I have to speak up about this ticket.
17:20:25 * nirik personally doesn't understand what the issue is... it doesn't make sense to me.
17:20:33 <BobJensen> It is nothing more than a rambling vent. It takes discussions between other parties out of context.
17:20:47 <dcr226> nirik, too much student beer
17:21:21 <nirik> dunno. IMHO there are completely valid reasons to disengage and stop helping someone...
17:21:32 <BobJensen> I was helping a user, I let the user know that I would not be able to continue.
17:22:10 <nirik> you have to go, you get called away, you think someone else could help better, you see the user getting frustrated and think a break would help you both, you are getting frustrated and don't want to say anything bad to the user, and so on...
17:22:25 <BobJensen> A third party questioned my desire to stop helping them, implied that I "had to continue" I told them that they could pay me to support someone if they wanted.
17:22:52 <BobJensen> and I stand by that.
17:23:06 * dcr226 would like to note he'll undercut Bob's hourly rate...just sayin'
17:23:09 <nirik> perhaps the objection was about the pay comment? ie, if someone did pay you they would feel bad that you were the only one being paid to provide support?
17:23:35 <BobJensen> If we are going to be required to help EVERYONE with EVERYTHING no matter what... then get the money rolling because that sounds like a job to me.
17:23:35 <nirik> anyhow, proposal: close with 'if you have concrete changes to propose, please do. Thanks for the discussion"
17:24:13 <dcr226> nirik, +1
17:24:40 <nirik> I mean I agree we should be polite when bowing out... "sorry, I can't help you further right now, good luck"
17:24:52 <BobJensen> As for my stance on SElinux, if a user disables SElinux for NO reason, NO errors, they are making a poor choice IMO and I will not help them.
17:24:53 <nirik> but I haven't really seen anyone being otherwise that I recall.
17:25:33 <nirik> sure, all thats personal decision... like if you wish to help folks from embargoed countries, or if you will help people install non free software.
17:25:41 <dcr226> BobJensen, doesn't matter. Your reason can be "you have blue eyes", its volunteer work..you don't need to justify your reason for not helping
17:25:49 * nirik nods.
17:26:03 <BobJensen> I will commonly encourage them to get things back in order and help them, BUT not when it is going to derail what they are trying to solve at that time.
17:26:14 <nirik> someone could be too picky to be useful in a community... but I think we are very far from that.
17:26:16 <dcr226> personally I'll refuse to help anyone with smelly feet. If they own up to it in the channel, I'm out
17:26:43 <BobJensen> The user in this case has since enabled SElinux and has no errors involved IIRC
17:27:07 <nirik> right... if someone in this sig said "I refuse to help people who use Fedora" I think we would have to ask them to go somewhere else... ;)
17:27:17 <dcr226> :)
17:27:18 <nirik> anyhow, we are beating a dead horse. ;)
17:27:19 * BobJensen nods
17:27:25 <nirik> next ticket?
17:27:37 <BobJensen> Bring it...
17:27:39 <BobJensen> ;)
17:27:45 <nirik> #topic ticket #131 Uncalled-for behaviour on #fedora
17:27:46 <nirik> https://fedorahosted.org/irc-support-sig/ticket/131
17:27:55 <nirik> proposal: close this with "thanks for the feedback"
17:28:05 <nirik> I don't actually see any bad behavior.
17:28:20 <BobJensen> proposal: close this with "Piss Off"
17:28:24 <BobJensen> ;)
17:28:26 <dcr226> HAHAHAHA
17:28:47 <nirik> heh.
17:29:00 <nirik> #topic Open Floor
17:29:09 <BobJensen> Hey
17:29:10 <nirik> anything for open floor? suggestions? comments?
17:29:16 <BobJensen> What about my other ticket
17:29:23 <nirik> hum?
17:29:25 * nirik looks
17:29:34 <BobJensen> https://fedorahosted.org/irc-support-sig/ticket/133
17:29:36 <dcr226> he wants a pat on the back
17:29:40 <dcr226> BobJensen++
17:29:42 <dcr226> ;-P
17:29:48 <nirik> oh oops. ;)
17:29:53 <BobJensen> Stroke me a little after the beating
17:29:56 <BobJensen> ;)
17:30:02 <nirik> #topic ticket #133 Kudos to BobJensen for helping out in #fedora
17:30:07 <nirik> kudos to BobJensen
17:30:08 <nirik> :)
17:30:08 <dcr226> :-)
17:30:19 <BobJensen> Was a simple fix in the end
17:30:26 * dcr226 hometime, later
17:30:32 <dcr226> s/hometime/nachotime
17:30:41 <BobJensen> Not a lot of damage done and was able to help clean their system up.
17:30:47 <nirik> nice. ;)
17:30:53 <nirik> #topic Open Floor again
17:31:09 <nirik> does someone want to close tickets? or I guess I can.
17:31:23 <BobJensen> New users getting bad advice from who knows where
17:31:59 <nirik> there's a lot of it out there. ;(
17:32:18 <BobJensen> We see this with every release cycle, as in the case of Ticket 133 an untrusted repo with history, that shall not be named.
17:32:49 * nirik nods.
17:32:56 <BobJensen> Lately these have been easy to clean up and have not required a clean install as they did in the past.
17:33:31 <BobJensen> I urge you all to TRY to help clean them up, or send them to me, before getting drastic.
17:33:48 <nirik> I think it's less overlapping than in the past
17:34:16 <BobJensen> The user will appreciate it in the end and they also get the chance to learn somehting from their mistakes
17:34:40 <BobJensen> nirik: the big thing is "yum update" fails rather than replacing core packages/files
17:35:09 <BobJensen> Or has been seen to fail more often
17:35:31 <underscores> BobJensen: do you mean by untrusted repos. repos from 3rd party providers that are neither livna nor rpmfusion? (which usually work)
17:36:01 <BobJensen> underscores: Correct, there is a repo out there that has a long history of being... less friendly
17:36:24 <BobJensen> underscores: does not integrate well with Fedora and RPM Fusion
17:36:47 <nirik> anyhow, anything further? or shall we call it a meeting?
17:37:12 <BobJensen> I admit that I have used it in the past, but you had to be incredibly careful.
17:38:15 <BobJensen> nirik: can we cancel the holiday week meeting now?
17:38:28 <nirik> sure... the 27th?
17:38:31 <BobJensen> nirik: No meeting on Dec 27
17:38:35 <BobJensen> right
17:38:37 <nirik> sounds good to me.
17:38:46 <nirik> #info no meeting on 2012-12-27
17:39:40 <BobJensen> also, I want to urge people to speak up if they have somethign they want to cover and we might otherwise cancel our meeting
17:40:04 <BobJensen> a lot of times we have been canceling because we have no tickets
17:40:23 <BobJensen> send something to the list if it comes to mind
17:40:25 <nirik> yep. very true
17:40:41 <BobJensen> that's it from me.
