#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.

(tflink, 16:47:17)
* 22 Proposed Blockers (tflink, 16:47:58)
* 12 Accepted Blockers (tflink, 16:47:58)
* 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)
* (886705) live cd should include qemu-guest-agent package (tflink,
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)
* LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=887363 (tflink,

(nirik, 18:30:15)

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

This does not include any issues limited to the release functioning

* (887539) FormatDestroyError: error wiping old signatures from
/dev/sdb2: 1 (tflink, 18:36:24)

18:36:27)
* Proposed Blocker, anaconda, NEW (tflink, 18:36:30)
* LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=876789 is the
other bug (adamw, 18:38:59)
* AGREED: 887539 - We need more information on whether this is a dupe
of #876789 before making a decision on blocker status. will re-visit
later (tflink, 18:44:00)

release criterion by blocking the creation of cloud images: "The
release must boot successfully as Xen DomU with releases providing a

release functioning as Xen Dom0" (tflink, 18:55:46)

* Proposed NTH, fedmsg, MODIFIED (tflink, 19:01:50)
* AGREED: 886329 - AcceptedNTH - There is a desire to release a final

19:15:20)
* Proposed NTH, firewalld, ON_QA (tflink, 19:15:22)
* AGREED: 874378 - AcceptedNTH - This reduces the dependencies on a
minimal install so that cairo and X aren't pulled in for firewalld

* Proposed NTH, lorax, ON_QA (tflink, 19:30:13)
* AGREED: 872468 - AcceptedNTH - It's not good form to break a
language in the installer. A tested fix would be considered past
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)

would make a positive difference in the livecds and is not entirely
fixable post-release. A tested fix would be considered past freeze.

* Covers 887120 , 887991 , 853590 (tflink, 19:40:54)

* Proposed NTH, eucalyptus, ON_QA (tflink, 20:10:14)
* AGREED: 886963 - RejectedNTH - While the packaging bug mentioned
here would be enough for NTH, it would need to be separated out by
itself instead of as part of a version upgrade for multiple
components. Would re-consider for a separated out fix (tflink,
20:15:52)
* Open Floor (tflink, 20:15:59)
