We still haven't gotten to the NTH bugs due to the number of blockers
to review. There will be a NTH bug review meeting in the next week - exact
time/date TBD.

  * 6 Accepted NTH  (tflink, 17:15:43)
  * 12 proposed blockers ready for discussion  (tflink, 17:15:58)

* (885284) grub is not installed in an all defaults autopart
  installation, system not bootable  (tflink, 17:17:05)
  * LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=885284   (tflink,
    17:17:08)
  * Proposed Blocker, anaconda, MODIFIED  (tflink, 17:17:11)
  * AGREED: 885284 - AcceptedBlocker - Violates the following F18 alpha
    release criterion: "In most cases, a system installed according to
    any of the above criteria must boot to the 'firstboot' utility on
    the first boot after installation, without unintended user
    intervention, unless the user explicitly chooses to boot in
    non-graphical mode..."  (tflink, 17:22:50)
  * LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=879046   (tflink,
    17:23:00)
  * Proposed Blocker, mactel-boot, ASSIGNED  (tflink, 17:23:02)
  * AGREED: 885284 - AcceptedBlocker - Violates the following F18 alpha
    release criterion for Apple hardware: "In most cases, a system
    installed according to any of the above criteria must boot to the
    'firstboot' utility on the first boot after installation, without
    unintended user intervention, unless the user explicitly chooses to
    boot in non-graphical mode...".  (tflink, 17:37:47)

* (866887) Anaconda defaults keyboard layout to US for all languages
  (tflink, 17:37:55)
  * LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=866887   (tflink,
    17:37:58)
  * Proposed Blocker, anaconda, MODIFIED  (tflink, 17:38:01)
  * AGREED: 866887 - RejectedBlocker AcceptedNTH - While this doesn't
    directly violate any of the F18 release criteria, it is a
    non-obvious annoyance for users of non-US keyboards. A tested fix
    would be considered past freeze.  (tflink, 17:43:46)

* (886061) core fedora repository error must be fatal, otherwise the
  upgraded system might be broken heavily  (tflink, 17:44:45)
  * LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=886061   (tflink,
    17:44:48)
  * Proposed Blocker, fedup, NEW  (tflink, 17:44:51)
  * AGREED: 886061 - This sounds like a blocker but we'd like to get
    more developer input before making a decision on blocker status
    (tflink, 17:58:23)

* (886319) ImportError: No module named lib.space  (tflink, 17:58:34)
  * LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=886319   (tflink,
    17:58:34)
  * Proposed Blocker, anaconda, NEW  (tflink, 17:58:34)
  * AGREED: 886319 - AcceptedBlocker - Violates the following F18 alpha
    release criterion: "The installer must boot (if appropriate) and run
    on all primary architectures, with all system firmware types that
    are common on those architectures, from default live image, DVD, and
    boot.iso install media when written to an optical disc and when
    written to a USB stick with at least one of the officially supported
    methods"  (tflink, 18:02:28)

* (886199) mokutil calculates incorrect signature size  (tflink,
  18:02:43)
  * LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=886199   (tflink,
    18:02:43)
  * Proposed Blocker, shim, NEW  (tflink, 18:02:43)
  * AGREED: 886199 - RejectedBlocker AcceptedNTH - This doesn't viiolate
    any F18 release criteria but would be better to pull in before
    release in case secureboot is affected. A tested fix would be
    considered after freeze.  (tflink, 18:13:10)

* (885912) Final-TC1 Auto Partition will not produce working Dual Boot
  (tflink, 18:13:17)
  * LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=885912   (tflink,
    18:13:20)
  * Proposed Blocker, anaconda, NEW  (tflink, 18:13:23)
  * ACTION: adamw to poke windows multiboot (885912), see if he can
    reproduce and identify the trigger  (adamw, 18:26:00)
  * AGREED: 885912 - It isn't completely clear what is causing this
    issue and depending on the details, this may or may not be a
    blocker. Will revisit when more information is available.  (tflink,
    18:26:49)

* (853636) poor checking of storage config against software set space
  needs  (tflink, 18:27:01)
  * LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=853636   (tflink,
    18:27:04)
  * Proposed Blocker, anaconda, MODIFIED  (tflink, 18:27:06)
  * AGREED: 853636 - AcceptedBlocker - Violates the following F18 beta
    release criterion for partitions too small for installation: "The
    installer's custom partitioning mode must be capable of the
    following ... Rejecting obviously invalid operations without
    crashing"  (tflink, 18:33:51)

* (869978) %packages --default doesn't install default system, but
  minimal one  (tflink, 18:36:13)
  * LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=869978   (tflink,
    18:36:16)
  * Proposed Blocker, anaconda, MODIFIED  (tflink, 18:36:18)
  * AGREED: 869978 - AcceptedBlocker - While there is no specific
    criterion for kickstart directives for F18, they are being decided
    on a case-by-case basis - this bug was determined to be
    common/serious enough to justify release blocking status.  (tflink,
    18:42:47)

* (885853) systemd-upgrade.target is copied to the upgraded system,
  rendering it unbootable  (tflink, 18:42:54)
  * LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=885853   (tflink,
    18:42:57)
  * Proposed Blocker, fedup-dracut, NEW  (tflink, 18:43:01)
  * AGREED: 885853 - RejectedBlocker - This doesn't seem likely to
    impact many real world systems and it is workaround-able in the
    worst case. Not severe enough to justify release blocking status but
    it should at least be documented as a commonbug  (tflink, 18:50:40)

* (884833) exiting from advanced user creation program in firstboot
  breaks firstboot  (tflink, 18:50:59)
  * LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=884833   (tflink,
    18:51:02)
  * Proposed Blocker, firstboot, NEW  (tflink, 18:51:05)
  * AGREED: 884833 - RejectedBlocker - This behavior existed in F17 and
    wasn't a huge problem. It seems like too much of a corner case to
    block release over for F18 final. NTH status would be considered
    depending on the size/impact of the fix.  (tflink, 19:34:52)

* (854904) Quitting Anaconda in LiveCD reboots machine  (tflink,
  19:36:13)
  * LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=854904   (tflink,
    19:36:13)
  * Proposed NTH, anaconda, MODIFIED  (tflink, 19:36:13)
  * AGREED: 854904 - AcceptedNTH - This is an annoyance that would be
    nice to fix but can't be fixed with an update. A tested fix would be
    considered past freeze.  (tflink, 19:39:45)

* (854722) autologin doesn't work in GDM  (tflink, 19:39:50)
  * LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=854722   (tflink,
    19:39:50)
  * Proposed NTH, gdm, MODIFIED  (tflink, 19:39:50)
  * AGREED: 854722 - AcceptedNTH - autologin on live images is the
    intended behavior and can't be fixed with an update post-release. A
    tested fix would be considered past freeze.  (tflink, 19:43:25)

* Open Floor  (tflink, 19:44:26)
  * LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=856456   (adamw,
    19:46:50)

* (856456)  Anaconda no longer has option to set hostname in UI
  (tflink, 19:49:23)
  * LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=856456   (tflink,
    19:49:23)
  * Proposed NTH, anaconda, NEW  (tflink, 19:49:23)
  * AGREED: 856456 - AcceptedNTH - This is a change in functionality
    from F17 that many users expect and can't be fixed with an update
    post-release. A tested fix would be considered past freeze.
    (tflink, 19:53:05)

* Open Floor (part 2)  (tflink, 19:53:29)
  * There will be an NTH review meeting at some point in the next week,
    time TBD  (tflink, 20:11:31)
  * ACTION: tflink to comment on all proposed NTH, asking for dev input
    on whether or not a fix is even practical for F18 final  (tflink,
    20:12:51)

Meeting ended at 20:14:15 UTC.
