Comment:

 Unfortunately we're gonna need to do RC2 again. Call it RC2.1 or RC3 as
 you like (though I'll have to make relval smarter if we're going to call
 it RC2.1 :>)

 The problem is we hit the unfortunate overlap where packages that were in
 bleed get pushed stable but aren't mashed / in repos by the time of the
 compose. RC2 appears to be missing all the packages from yesterday's
 stable push:

 fedup-dracut and initscripts/systemd are the packages that are ultimately
 affected. livecd-tools has to be in the *compose environment* not the
 built images, and it seems it did get used to compose the RC2 lives
 somehow (from the logs). even newer builds of anaconda/python-blivet and
 selinux-policy were listed for RC2 and pulled from bleed, so we wound up
 with the correct builds of those. But the Server tree on stage/ and the
 live image compose logs definitely show that an old build of
 initscripts/systemd is in RC2 (systemd 215-9), and we can fairly strongly
 surmise the same applies to fedup-dracut.

 That means RC2 suffers the blocker bugs they fixed.

 So, please fire the compose again, but make sure the newer versions of
 those packages are pulled in / used for compose (in the case of livecd-
 tools) this time.
