In the past, the compose would not fail just because a release-blocking
deliverable failed to compose, the package compose would just ship without
the deliverables that failed to compose. That's what needs to happen again.
There is no technical reason why an error composing a live ISO prevents the
changed RPMs from going out. Rawhide is not a release, there should be time
until the actual release to fix the release-blocking deliverable.
And ideally, we would keep the last successful compose of each deliverable
on the mirrors, no matter whether it matches the current package compose or
not. (We did not do that in the past, the ISO was just missing when the
latest version failed to compose, which is suboptimal.)
We need to stop having unreasonable expectations about Rawhide's quality,
and ISOs always composing successfully is one such unreasonable expectation.
