I try to discourage people from using waivers as far as possible, as it can cause significant disruption if someone waives a failure that propagates to future updates. It really ought to be possible in all cases to resolve the problem some other way - if the failure is false it should always be possible to resolve that a different way, IMO. It's also unfortunate that you cannot practically waive failures individually ATM (you *can*, but only by manually sending requests to waiverdb, and nobody does that). The Bodhi button waives *all* failures, and so carries a significant risk that a genuine failure may be inadvertently waived alongside a false one. I know somebody had a plan to implement per-failure waivers in the Bodhi UI, but I don't know when that might actually get done. -- Adam Williamson (he/him/his) Fedora QA Fedora Chat: @adamwill:fedora.im | Mastodon: @ad...@fosstodon.org https://www.happyassassin.net -- _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
