    2. LINK: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2402675 (@adamwill:fedora.im, 16:06:48)
    3. INFO: Ticket vote: FinalBlocker (+4,0,-1) (+kparal, +derekenz, +augenauf, +nielsenb, -kashyapc) (@adamwill:fedora.im, 16:06:48)
  4. TOPIC:(2402675) WebUI: org.fedoraproject.Anaconda.KeyboardConfigurationError: The live system has layout 'typing-booster' which can't be used for installation. (@adamwill:fedora.im, 16:06:48)
    1. LINK: https://pagure.io/fedora-qa/blocker-review/issue/1971 (@adamwill:fedora.im, 16:06:48)
    2. AGREED: 2402675 - RejectedBlocker (Final) AcceptedFreezeException (Final) - after extensive analysis we agreed that, while the current state is pretty unfortunate, Workstation is no worse than F42 and KDE is manageably awkward. We accept it as an FE so we could potentially land improved error messages and possibly well-tested improvements if there's a one week slip (@adamwill:fedora.im, 16:49:41)
    3. INFO: Ticket vote: FinalBlocker (+0,0,-5) (-kparal, -derekenz, -nielsenb, -kashyapc, -geraldosimiao) (@adamwill:fedora.im, 16:50:20)

  5. TOPIC:(2363937) Version upgrade from Fedora 41 to 42 disables postfix.service (@adamwill:fedora.im, 16:50:20)
    1. INFO: Proposed Blocker, chkconfig, NEW (@adamwill:fedora.im, 16:50:20)
    2. AGREED: 2363937 - RejectedBlocker (Final) - this is rejected as, based on further investigation, we're fairly sure it doesn't technically break the criteria, and isn't particularly specific to Fedora 43; at present we suspect a change to chkconfig's alternatives handling which has landed in both F42 and F43 interacts poorly with systems that were previously upgraded to Fedora 42 and have individual /usr/sbin/foo -> /usr/bin/foo symlinks rather than a /usr/sbin -> /usr/bin symlink. Accepted as an FE so we can land a fix during freeze if we find one and reduce the number of F43 upgrades/updates that may be affected (@adamwill:fedora.im, 17:00:44)

    1. AGREED: 2402621 - punt (delay decision) - we didn't reach a clear consensus on this with the folks present in the meeting. vote currently stands at +2 / -4. We have, for now, filed a separate bug for Peter Robinson's Pinebook Pro issue - https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2405144 - and we're awaiting further details on that (@adamwill:fedora.im, 17:41:59)

    4. AGREED: 2402498 - AcceptedBlocker (Final) - this is accepted as a blocker on the basis that it's believed to affect relatively common configurations of the Raspberry PI 4 (a very commonly used device for Fedora aarch64) as well as the reported Nanopi R5C (@adamwill:fedora.im, 17:52:59)
  8. TOPIC:Proposed Final Freeze exceptions (@adamwill:fedora.im, 17:53:40)
    1. INFO: Proposed Freeze Exceptions, 7zip, MODIFIED (@adamwill:fedora.im, 17:53:48)

    2. AGREED: 2373874 - AcceptedBlocker (Final) - this is upgraded and accepted as a Final BLOCKER as a violation of Final criterion "For all release-blocking desktop / arch combinations, the following applications must start successfully and withstand a basic functionality test: ... archive manager", as testing indicates this affects all standard ways of interacting with archives in KDE (ark, Dolphin) and 7zip archives are very common, especially for platform-agnostic interchange (@adamwill:fedora.im, 18:14:47)

  10. TOPIC:(2366216) DokuWiki 2025-05-14b "Librarian" is available (@adamwill:fedora.im, 18:14:59)
    1. AGREED: 2366216 - AcceptedFreezeException (Final) - this is accepted based on the justification in the bug, to get the vulnerability addressed ASAP and avoid a post-release version bump (@adamwill:fedora.im, 18:19:54)

    1. AGREED: 2404262 - AcceptedFreezeException (Final) - this is accepted as it affects the usability of the live installer on unaccelerated configurations, and obviously cannot be fixed with a post-release update (@adamwill:fedora.im, 18:24:46)
