Is Bug 496820 an F12Blocker?

[Niels Haase]

Hello,

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=496820 prevents Power6
Systems from using the network because the ethernet adapters are not
found. This also means that all all kinds of network installation will
fail
during the install. Since PPC is still a primary arch, this bug should
be at least a F12Blocker I think.

The bugs blocks actually RHEL 6 (511304). Therefore I'm not able to
add them to F12Blocker.

Looks like one to me as well.
If I understand the severity setting policy correctly, we would want to 
set this to urgent so that it shows up on the radar for the blocker bug 
meeting Friday.

I changed the severity to urgent and leave a comment that we take care
of it. I try to come along to the meeting to remember about this bug,
since it's not show up on the F12 blocker list.

As discussed in the bug, this was actually fixed for Rawhide a while
back. It's open for 11.

For the historical record, the bug was nominated for F11 blockers but
reluctantly dropped - it was a borderline case but in the end we weren't
willing to hold up the release for it. We noted that it doesn't affect
_all_ PPC systems, only a specific type which is probably quite rare
among Fedora users.
