[Test-Announce] F17 GA to slip by one week.

Thu May 17 18:55:46 UTC 2012


At the Go/No-Go meeting today, it was decided to slip the GA of Fedora 
17 by one week[1]. There are currently 4 remaining release blockers[2], 
necessitating the creation of RC2. Minutes follow below.

GA for F17 is now scheduled for 2012-05-29.  Adjustments to the 
schedule[3] and wiki will be completed later today.

We will be meeting again next Thursday, 2012-05-24, for another Go/No-Go 
meeting.

Thanks for your patience!

-Robyn

   * LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/attachment.cgi?id=585074   (spot,
     17:14:32)
   * packaging the C code outside of firstboot seems like the best

     (rbergeron, 17:23:02)
   * ACTION: tflink to coordinate with mgracik re: firstboot changes
     (rbergeron, 17:27:40)

* (822123) Graphical grub is unusable slow  (tflink, 17:28:11)
   * LINK: http://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=822123   (tflink,
     17:28:11)
   * Accepted Blocker, MODIFIED  (tflink, 17:28:11)
   * workedaround, just need to wait for RC2  (rbergeron, 17:31:00)
   * anaconda-17.28-1 should workaround this to the point where it's no
     longer a blocker  (tflink, 17:31:01)

* (794927) PackageKit cannot import GPG keys - Fatal error:
   GDBus.Error:org.gtk.GDBus.UnmappedGError.Quark._pk_5ftransaction_5ferror.Code14:
   Invalid input passed to daemon: char '<' in text!  (tflink, 17:31:54)
   * LINK: http://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=794927   (tflink,
     17:31:58)
   * Proposed Blocker, MODIFIED  (tflink, 17:32:01)
   * LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=998   (nirik,
     17:36:26)
   * AGREED: - 794927 - AcceptedBlocker - Violates the Fedora 17 alpha
     release criterion "The installed system must be able to download and
     install updates with yum and the default graphical package manager
     in all release-blocking desktops"  (tflink, 17:42:27)

* (748320) automatically import default GPG keys  (tflink, 17:42:37)
   * LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=748320   (tflink,
     17:42:37)
   * Proposed Blocker, NEW  (tflink, 17:42:39)
   * AGREED: - 748320 - RejectedBlocker, AcceptedNTH - This doesn't
     directly hit any of the Fedora 17 release criteria and we've been
     shipping like this for a while now - rejected as blocker. However,
     this would improve the user experience and a tested fix would be
     considered for inclusion past code freeze  (tflink, 17:47:12)

* (822430) PK is stuck after installing a single update  (tflink,
   17:47:20)
   * LINK: http://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=822430   (tflink,
     17:47:20)
   * Proposed Blocker, NEW  (tflink, 17:47:20)
   * no kittens will be harmed during the triage and fix for this bug ...
     if all goes according to plan  (tflink, 18:03:59)
   * AGREED: - 822430 - RejectedBlocker, AcceptedNTH - This doesn't
     completely hit any of the Fedora 17 release criteria and has a
     simple workaround - install all of the updates. Thus it can be fixed
     by an update and does not need to block release. However, it does
     cause problems with certain update use cases and would be considered
     for freeze break. Separate patches and/or builds for the different
     PK issues are requested so that they can be evaluated in  (tflink,
     18:04:12)

* (820478) [ta_IN] Without autohinting tamil strings rendering is badly
   broken.  (tflink, 18:04:28)
   * LINK: http://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=820478   (tflink,
     18:04:31)
   * Proposed Blocker, MODIFIED  (tflink, 18:04:34)
   * AGREED: - 820478 - RejectedBlocker, AcceptedNTH - This doesn't
     directly hit any of the Fedora 17 release criteria but it does
     impact readability and user experience for installations in Tamil.
     The fix is built and tested, will accept if more composes are done.
     (tflink, 18:09:16)

* (815473) Preugprade from F16 to F17 Beta doesn't successfully set the
   boot menu default  (tflink, 18:09:32)
   * LINK: http://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=815473   (tflink,
     18:09:35)
   * Proposed Blocker, NEW  (tflink, 18:09:37)

* (815473) Preugprade from F16 to F17 Beta doesn't successfully set the
   boot menu default  (tflink, 18:17:06)
   * LINK: http://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=815473   (tflink,
     18:17:09)
   * Proposed Blocker, NEW  (tflink, 18:17:11)
   * AGREED: - 815473 - RejectedBlocker - This doesn't affect the ability
     of preupgrade to actually work and thus, doesn't violate the Fedora
     17 release criteria. The workaround is relatively painless but a new
     preupgrade build is very much desired as the issue has been fixed in
     git  (tflink, 18:21:02)

* (822495) Fedora 17 DVD build does not contain device-mapper-multipath
   (tflink, 18:22:48)
   * LINK: http://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=822495   (tflink,
     18:22:51)
   * Proposed Blocker, NEW  (tflink, 18:22:53)
   * AGREED: - 822495 - AcceptedBlocker - Violates the Fedora 17 final
     release criterion "The installer must be able to complete an
     installation using any network-attached storage devices (e.g. iSCSI,
     FCoE, Fibre Channel)" and multipath is very much the norm for higer
     end networked storage  (tflink, 18:26:20)

* Go or No Go?  (rbergeron, 18:32:23)
   * Test matrices are pretty much covered, except SCSI, which we are
     always missing.  (rbergeron, 18:32:51)
   * 4 blockers - 2 previously accepted, 2 new  (rbergeron, 18:36:12)
   * some desktop tests, including KDE, are missing, we need an RC2 spin.
     (rbergeron, 18:36:52)
   * AGREED: F17 Final (from RC1) is a no-go; we slip one week, for a GA
     of May 29.  (rbergeron, 18:38:10)
   * Release readiness meeting in this channel in 20 minutes  (rbergeron,
     18:39:38)
   * ACTION: rbergeron to send out slip mail with a sad, unbeefy face
     (rbergeron, 18:40:02)
   * Next Go/No-Go will be 2012-05-24, same bat time, same bat channel
     (17:00 UTC, 13:00 eastern, 10:00 pacific)  (rbergeron, 18:45:40)
