[Proposal] Dropping YYYY-MM-DD from Test Day Page Title
by Sumantro Mukherjee 06 Mar '23

06 Mar '23

Hey Folks! In the recent past, I have experienced multiple such scenarios where the creation of the test day pages well in advance could have saved us some time and helped a long way with planning. The test day planning is already done with a short fuse; meaning from the day the maintainer wants a test day to be hosted to the actual day is sometimes less than 7 days. Creating multiple pages and then redirecting them is a possible workaround but is messy and resource-consuming. Fedora Test Day Web App already sorts the events by date and it's easy to read through. Executing this proposal at the earliest will help spin out test day skeleton pages and tagged to the issue tracker well in advance. As Fedora Linux keeps growing and test days keep increasing, this move will help us to roll out wiki pages in advance at least a couple of releases prior; keeping in sync with which changeset lands in which release. This in the long run (when badges are functional) will have test day owners, tag appropriate release test day badges right in the ticket itself. This will help our contributors to explore more about the test days they care about and the recognition token attached to them. I would like to know your thoughts about this move and thanks a lot of contributing to Fedora QA team! -- //sumantro Fedora QE TRIED AND PERSONALLY TESTED, ERGO TRUSTED

[Test Day] GNOME 44 Desktop and Core Apps 2023-03-06 through 2023-03-08
by Sumantro Mukherjee 06 Mar '23

06 Mar '23

Hey folks! This week we will be testing GNOME 44. To make it easier for testers to test and the Workstation team to make the results submitted useful, we have split the GNOME test week into two parts, the first leg will be covering the desktop and the core apps. The latter will focus on apps that will need a lot more testing. Today, we kick off the first leg [0] and the workstation team will be monitoring their libera chat room for questions. The "how to test" [1] section will help testers understand what to test for (if they are completely new to this) [0] https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Day:2023-03-06_Fedora_38_GNOME_44_Deskt… [1] https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Day:2023-03-06_Fedora_38_GNOME_44_Deskt… -- //sumantro Fedora QE TRIED AND PERSONALLY TESTED, ERGO TRUSTED

Is anyone using rpm besides dnf and me?

Xfce ~ Lost all menu icons in Rawhide and Beta Branch
by Ian Laurie 04 Mar '23

04 Mar '23

In Rawhide (fc39) and the beta branch (fc38), with all updates applied, I'm seeing all menu icons are gone in Xfce... both the system menu and right-click context menus. Seems the Settings Tab in Settings->Appearance now has all options turned off, including "Show images in menus". Updates did this. Ticking this option brings sanity back. Was this really intentional or is it a bug? I think this deviation from traditional defaults is going to cause beginners a lot of grief. The Xfce updates in the total update payload were as follows: xfce4-about-4.18.2-1.fc38.x86_64 xfce4-notifyd-0.8.0-1.fc38.x86_64 xfce4-panel-4.18.2-1.fc38.x86_64 xfce4-power-manager-4.18.1-1.fc38.x86_64 xfce4-session-4.18.1-1.fc38.x86_64 xfce4-settings-4.18.2-1.fc38.x86_64 I'm guessing it was xfce4-settings that did it? If this was intentional I think it was a really bad idea. Ian -- Ian Laurie FAS: nixuser | IRC: nixuser TZ: Australia/Sydney

Guessing the first sentence should be 38 and not 37 right?
