2022-09-19 @ 16:00 UTC - Fedora 37 Blocker Review Meeting
by Adam Williamson 16 Sep '22

16 Sep '22

# F36 Blocker Review meeting # Date: 2022-09-19 # Time: 16:00 UTC # Location: #fedora-blocker-review on irc.libera.chat Hi folks! We have 4 proposed Final blockers and 6 proposed Final freeze exceptions to review, so let's have a review meeting. 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 F36 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 weekend and see you Monday!

Giving gnome-sig access to rpms/blueprint-compiler
by Lyes Saadi 14 Sep '22

14 Sep '22

Hello, I'm maintaining the blueprint-compiler package for Fedora. I figured out that the gnome-sig would probably be interested in maintaining this package as well. So, should I give the gnome-sig admin/commit rights over rpms/blueprint-compiler? Greetings, Lyes Saadi

Release criteria proposal: require GNOME Shell extension install/remove to work
by Adam Williamson 14 Sep '22

14 Sep '22

Hey folks! So a bug came up at today's blocker review meeting: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2106868 it takes a minute to parse, but the tl;dr is that right now in Fedora 37, you can't go to https://extensions.gnome.org and install extensions. We agreed that it doesn't violate any existing release criteria, but to me, this is actually kind of a significant problem. Anecdotally, I get the impression that a lot of our Workstation users do use extensions, and not being able to easily install them on a fresh install would be a big problem for them, and make us look pretty bad. We have a handful of extensions packaged, though I'm not sure how well they're kept up to date. Aside from those, I don't know of any other really practical way for regular users to install extensions besides https://extensions.gnome.org . Is there one? Assuming for now that there isn't, I'm gonna propose this as a Final release criterion to see how people feel about it, to come after "Default panel functionality": ##### === GNOME extensions === On Fedora Workstation, it must be possible to install and remove extensions by visiting https://extensions.gnome.org in the default web browser, after installing the required browser extension. ##### Do folks think this is important enough to block Final release on? Desktop folks, do you consider it "supportable"? Thanks! -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA IRC: adamw | Twitter: adamw_ha https://www.happyassassin.net

I guess it happened to be the case that none of the three or four random extensions I tested with is updated to 43, so that's why I thought the bug prevented installing them... -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA IRC: adamw | Twitter: adamw_ha https://www.happyassassin.net
