*Why*
The recent spice-vdagent update causes all virtual machines to take 90
seconds longer on every shutdown/reboot:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1813667
The service hangs when systemd tries to stop it, and systemd then kills it
after a 90 second timeout expires.
This is a recurring pattern, I saw services blocking shutdown/reboot in the
past, and so far we haven't been able to do anything about it from a
blocker perspective. I think that for cases where the problem occurs very
frequently or every time, we should have a way to block the release until
it's fixed. I find it a very poor experience to wait 90+ seconds for
machine reboot/shutdown. Much poorer than, say, a crashing desktop
application (which we block on), because that application can be replaced
with a different one. System services mostly can't be replaced, and
certainly not by a general user.
*Proposal*
So I propose to amend the "System services" criterion [1]:
```
All system services present after installation with one of the
release-blocking package sets must start properly, unless they require
hardware which is not present.
```
with something like this:
```
All system services present after installation with one of the
release-blocking package sets must start properly, unless they require
hardware which is not present.
*All system services present after installation with one of the
release-blocking package sets must not time out frequently or regularly
when they are being stopped during system reboot/shutdown.*
```
The way it is written, the mentioned bug would be a conditional violation
of that criterion (applies only to VMs) and we'd need to use our judgement
to determine whether it's a blocker.
Thoughts?

I can't recall, but, is podman included in a release blocking package set?
I ask because it already fails to properly exit and is eventually
timed out. Podman fails this criteria for F31 (and presumably F32).
That said, I'm all for this criteria.
