2023-03-20 @ **16:00** UTC - Fedora 38 Blocker Review Meeting
by Adam Williamson
# F37 Blocker Review meeting
# Date: 2023-03-20
# Time: **16:00** UTC
# Location: #fedora-blocker-review on irc.libera.chat
Hi folks! We have 5 proposed Final blockers to review, so let's have a
review meeting.
Remember that clocks went forward in North America last weekend, so
the meeting time in UTC is an hour earlier than before. If you do not
observe daylight savings time, or your clocks did not yet go forward,
the meeting will be an hour earlier in your local time. Please double
check!
If you have time this weekend, you can take a look at the proposed or
accepted blockers before the meeting - the full lists can be found
here: https://qa.fedoraproject.org/blockerbugs/ .
Remember, you can also now vote on bugs outside of review meetings! If
you look at the bug list in the blockerbugs app, you'll see links
labeled "Vote!" next to all proposed blockers and freeze exceptions.
Those links take you to tickets where you can vote.
https://pagure.io/fedora-qa/blocker-review has instructions on how
exactly you do it. We usually go through the tickets shortly before the
meeting and apply any clear votes, so the meeting will just cover bugs
where there wasn't a clear outcome in the ticket voting yet. **THIS
MEANS IF YOU VOTE NOW, THE MEETING WILL BE SHORTER!**
We'll be evaluating these bugs to see if they violate any of the
Release Criteria and warrant the blocking of a release if they're not
fixed. Information on the release criteria for F38 can be found on the
wiki [0].
For more information about the Blocker and Freeze exception process,
check out these links:
- https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:SOP_blocker_bug_process
- https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:SOP_freeze_exception_bug_process
And for those of you who are curious how a Blocker Review Meeting
works - or how it's supposed to go and you want to run one - check out
the SOP on the wiki:
- https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:SOP_Blocker_Bug_Meeting
Have a good day and see you tomorrow!

Re: Fedora Linux 38 blocker status summary
by Ben Cotton
The current target release date is the early target date (2023-03-14).
Action summary
====================
Accepted blockers
-----------------
1. distribution — Workstation boot x86_64 image exceeds maximum size — ASSIGNED
ACTION: Workstation WG to reduce image size or increase the limit
2. kwin — kwin_wayland often crashed when used as the sddm Wayland
compositor and logging out of Plasma resulting in a black screen —
ON_QA
ACTION: QA to verify FEDORA-2023-81ff51758d
Proposed blockers
-----------------
1. gdb — Can't open file anon_inode:i915.gem which was expanded to
anon_inode:i915.gem during file-backed mapping note processing — NEW
ACTION: Maintainer to diagnose issue
2. pkgconf — Don't depend on system-rpm-config — ON_QA
ACTION: QA to verify FEDORA-2023-766817d642
Bug-by-bug detail
=============
Accepted blockers
-----------------
1. distribution — https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2149246 — ASSIGNED
Workstation boot x86_64 image exceeds maximum size
Changes to linux-firmware briefly brought the Worktation image below
the limit. However, the Fedora-38-20230216.n.0 went above the limit
again.
2. kwin — https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2168034 — ON_QA
kwin_wayland often crashed when used as the sddm Wayland compositor
and logging out of Plasma resulting in a black screen
Logging out of Plasma sometimes triggers a kwin crash.
FEDORA-2023-81ff51758d contains a candidate fix.
Proposed blockers
-----------------
1. gdb — https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2172342 — NEW
Can't open file anon_inode:i915.gem which was expanded to
anon_inode:i915.gem during file-backed mapping note processing
Reporting a bug with gnome-abrt fails because no fram and no thread
found in the backtrace that gdb produces.
2. pkgconf — https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2172406 — ON_QA
Don't depend on system-rpm-config
pkgconf pulls in ~22 new packages as a runtime dependency, which don't
appear to be strictly necessary. FEDORA-2023-766817d642 contains a
candidate fix.
