  2. Introduction (adamw, 16:13:10)

    11. 4 Proposed Blockers (adamw, 16:14:02)
    12. 5 Accepted Blockers (adamw, 16:14:02)
    13. 5 Proposed Freeze Exceptions (adamw, 16:14:02)
    14. 1 Accepted Freeze Exceptions (adamw, 16:14:04)

  3. (1337731) Live image compose fails with dnf 1.1.9 (adamw, 16:14:37)
    1. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1337731 (adamw, 16:14:37)
    2. Proposed Blocker, anaconda, MODIFIED (adamw, 16:14:38)
    3. AGREED: 1337731 - RejectedBlocker - this would be a blocker, but the update has now been unpushed and the freeze is tomorrow, so it will not be necessary to track this as a blocker (adamw, 16:22:10)

  4. (1337336) gnome-software shows updates but "Restart & Install" button doesn't install them (adamw, 16:22:29)
    1. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1337336 (adamw, 16:22:29)
    2. Proposed Blocker, gnome-software, ON_QA (adamw, 16:22:29)
    3. https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2016-2be09c9861 (adamw, 16:32:05)
    4. AGREED: 1337336 - AcceptedFreezeException - it's very difficult to decide whether this is a blocker, and as the fix is already queued for stable we decided not to waste time arguing over it. We are granting it a freeze exception just in case it somehow doesn't get pushed stable before the freeze kicks in, but it should (adamw, 16:36:41)

  5. (1337582) Fails to start with "Cannot read MSR_ERROR_CONTROL from /dev/cpu/0/msr" when running in VM on Xeon E5-2450 host (adamw, 16:36:47)
    1. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1337582 (adamw, 16:36:47)
    2. Proposed Blocker, mcelog, NEW (adamw, 16:36:47)
    3. AGREED: 1337582 - RejectedBlocker RejectedFreezeException - further investigation seems to confirm that this is quite hardware-specific, so as the criterion in question is a 'polish' criterion the impact is not broad enough to constitute a violation. It's also not significant enough to be worth breaking the freeze to try and fix (adamw, 16:42:50)

  6. (1334960) ValueError: plural forms expression could be dangerous (adamw, 16:42:59)
    1. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1334960 (adamw, 16:42:59)
    2. Proposed Blocker, python-blivet, NEW (adamw, 16:42:59)
    3. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1334960#c14 suggests it's an error in the lithuanian translation po file itself (adamw, 16:45:33)
    4. AGREED: 1334960 - RejectedBlocker AcceptedFreezeException - we believe this affects only Lithuanian, and by itself that's not a big enough locale to consider release blocking, but of course it's worth a freeze exception to fix. The bug can be re-proposed as a blocker if it affects more locales (adamw, 16:52:21)
    5. that's all the proposed blockers for now (adamw, 16:52:40)
    6. moving on to proposed FEs (adamw, 16:52:56)

  7. (1330820) blivet.errors.DeviceError: ('cannot replace active format', 'sde1') (adamw, 16:53:02)
    1. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1330820 (adamw, 16:53:03)
    2. Proposed Freeze Exceptions, anaconda, POST (adamw, 16:53:03)
    3. AGREED: 1330820 - AcceptedFreezeException - this would save some people from encountering a crash during install so it seems worthy of a freeze exception early in the freeze period (adamw, 16:57:32)

  8. (1317275) [abrt] gnome-software: gs_plugin_loader_get_updates_async(): gnome-software killed by SIGSEGV (adamw, 16:58:05)
    1. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1317275 (adamw, 16:58:05)
    2. Proposed Freeze Exceptions, gnome-software, NEW (adamw, 16:58:05)
    3. AGREED: 1317275 - RejectedFreezeException - there is no info on the actual bug, or the consequences of the crash, or how invasive a fix would be, or even any clear reproducer. it's impossible to grant a freeze exception in this case. If more information comes out, the decision can be re-considered (adamw, 17:03:08)

  9. (1331120) Add support for running --make-ostree-live with --no-virt (and inside mock) (adamw, 17:03:17)
    1. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1331120 (adamw, 17:03:18)
    2. Proposed Freeze Exceptions, lorax, POST (adamw, 17:03:18)
    3. AGREED: 1331120 - AcceptedFreezeException - we're willing to accept this as a convenience for the compose process and due to the misunderstanding between anaconda team and blocker review group about how the FE process works, but will ask bcl not to land it unless he's very confident in it, and work with anaconda team to improve this process in future (adamw, 17:11:25)

  10. (1331869) i686 images are about 400MB larger than x86_64 images (adamw, 17:11:56)
    1. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1331869 (adamw, 17:11:57)
    2. Proposed Freeze Exceptions, lorax, POST (adamw, 17:11:57)
    3. AGREED: 1331869 - punt (delay decision) - it's not clear exactly what benefits this brings (if it's only a small size saving for live images, or more than that) and what the potential dangers are, and relevant folks aren't around at present to inform. we will try to gather information and vote in-bug (adamw, 17:23:41)

  11. (1331091) The stored screen's resolution isn't always retrieved (adamw, 17:24:35)
    1. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1331091 (adamw, 17:24:35)
    2. Proposed Freeze Exceptions, plasma-workspace, NEW (adamw, 17:24:35)
    3. AGREED: 1331091 - RejectedFreezeException - this will mostly affect installed systems and can be sufficiently fixed with an update, there is no great benefit to fixing it in the release media (adamw, 17:29:01)
    4. that's all the proposed FEs (adamw, 17:29:31)
    5. quick accepted blocker summary: (adamw, 17:30:07)
    6. pjones is working on 1320273 (adamw, 17:30:18)
    7. adamw worked out 1333998 and fixes are pending anaconda and systemd-side (adamw, 17:30:35)
    8. selinux and freeipa folks are working on 1333106 (adamw, 17:30:46)
    9. 1318045 still needs someone to pin down exactly why the initramfs is missing vconsole.conf, adamw will look into it this week if no-one else does (adamw, 17:31:25)

  12. (1293167) [abrt] kf5-kinit: qt_message_fatal(): kdeinit5 killed by SIGABRT (adamw, 17:31:59)
    1. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1293167 (adamw, 17:32:00)
    2. Accepted Blocker, kf5-kinit, NEW (adamw, 17:32:00)
    3. AGREED: 1293167 - revert to proposed blocker and ask for further testing from kparal / pschindl, this bug seems to have a more limited impact than was first thought (adamw, 17:39:23)

  13. Open floor (adamw, 17:40:38)
