Greetings everyone,
Is it just me or is Bugzilla offline? I have been trying that site for the past
2 hours. What's happening?

I think this should be 17:00 UTC. That's what Fedocal shows for the
meeting, and what looks like the appropriate time in my own calendar.

Bug-by-bug detail
=============
Accepted blockers
-----------------
1. anaconda — https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2088113 — ON_QA
Custom partitioning with 2 drives selected, bootloader fails to
install due to one drive not having a BIOS Boot partition
When using custom partitioning on two drives with /boot on a RAID 1
device, the installer only creates one BIOS boot. grub2-install is run
against both drives, but the second fails because it has no BIOS boot
partition. FEDORA-2022-c20d42f3bc contains a candidate fix.
2. gnome-contacts — https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2111003 — ON_QA
When a single contact is edited, it results in multiple contacts of
the same name.
Editing a contact results in the contact being properly updated, but
an empty contact is created with the same name. FEDORA-2022-acbfee2ce8
contains a candidate fix.
3. gnome-initial-setup —
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2123494 — ASSIGNED
Unable to set up enterprise account with gnome-initial-setup, clicking
continue does not join the domain
Initially the buttons were missing. Update FEDORA-2022-50e585b456
fixed that issue, however clicking the button does not joing the
domain. Instead, the user is returned to the domain credentials
screen, resulting in an endless loop.
https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=92037333 contains
a backport of upstream's change which may fix it.
4. gnome-shell — https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2121110 — ASSIGNED
GNOME Initial Setup uses the English keyboard, instead of the default keyboard
Regardless of the default keyboard setting, g-i-s uses the English
keyboard. Relatedly, new users have the English keyboard selected,
even though another language is shown as the default.
FEDORA-2022-52cdfc7920 failed to fix this issue.
5. gnome-shell — https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2125252 — VERIFIED
Attempting to disconnect VPN connection from system menu does nothing
Disabling a VPN doesn't disable the VPN. Fixed in FEDORA-2022-50e585b456.
6. gnome-software —
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2124869 — VERIFIED
Can't install a local rpm package anymore, Install button missing (for
certain RPMs)
What it says on the tin. Fixed in FEDORA-2022-b6246d02fa.
7. greenboot — https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2121944 — NEW
greenboot-grub2-set-counter.service fails on 38 IoT with "cannot open
`/boot/grub2/grubenv.new`: No such file or directory."
greenboot service fails on a file-not-found error. This also results
in rebase tests failing because of conflicts with the rebase triggered
by the greenboot failure.
8. grub2 — https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2049849 — NEW
Windows with bitlocker enabled can't be booted, needs to use bootnext
instead of chainloader
Dual-booting recent Windows 10 system with TPM 2.0 fails because
bitlocker can't be unsealed by the TPM. This was waived to F37 under
the "difficult to fix" exception. No additional updates have been
provided.
9. mesa — https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2123274 — NEW
totem: nouveau_pushbuf_data(): totem killed by SIGABRT
totem plays ~1 second of video and then crashes. This appears to
happen with all video formats. This appears to be an issue in
multithreading support in the nouveau driver, which is fixed upstream.
The fix is large and may not be suitable for backporting, but would be
available in a mesa-22.3 update.
10. uboot-tools — https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2124127 — ON_QA
Regression booting Fedora on rockchip devices installed on PCIe NVME drives
uboot-tools introducted a regression when used with 5.19.x kernels.
FEDORA-2022-c1d9e8daa9 contains a candidate fix.
Proposed blockers
-----------------
1. chrome-gnome-shell —
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2106868 — NEW
Project name and source repository changed to gnome-browser-connector
Upstream has split this into two packages. Package review pending for
renamed package:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=2127314
2. gnome-shell — https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2125439 — NEW
screencast doesn't record the top layer
Typing and popup windows don't show when recording a screencast. This
may be fixed in pipewire-gstreamer-0.3.57-1.
3. gnome-shell-extension-background-logo —
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2127192 — NEW
Update gnome-shell-extension-background-logo to 43.0
The Fedora logo is not displayed and the package is not compatible
with gnome-shell 43.
4. systemd — https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2121106 — NEW
Czech qwerty layout configured in anaconda, but qwertz layout used in
disk unlock and in VT console
The wrong keymap is used when unlocking disks or virtual terminals. It
looks like this may have never worked. It looks like an issue with how
layouts are mapped between console and xkb. Adam is thinking about how
to approach this:
