## Proposed Final blockers

(2397086) [2] Drop-down menus not working over RDP in Anaconda

The Anaconda installer's drop-down menus are not functional when using it
over an RDP connection. While it's technically possible to complete an
installation, the group agreed that the inability to use dropdowns is a
significant enough impairment to common tasks to block the release.

Resolution: Accepted as a Final blocker. This is considered a conditional
violation of the criterion requiring the installer to be functional via
text, graphical, and RDP interfaces.

-----

(2396646) [3] The web UI doesn't warn users when reusing a /home partition
on an encrypted disk

The web UI installer does not warn users about potential data loss when
reusing a `/home` partition that is an encrypted filesystem directly on a
disk (not a partition). Although this is a fairly uncommon configuration,
the team decided it was common enough—especially since the web UI can
create such a layout—to block the release.

Resolution: Accepted as a Final blocker. This violates the installation
criterion requiring the installer to be able to assign mount points to
existing storage volumes.

-----

(2396016) [4] Authselect doesn't regenerate new profile with pam\_lastlog2
support in Fedora Silverblue 43

On Fedora Silverblue 43, `authselect` fails to regenerate profiles with
`pam_lastlog2` support. The team determined this does not violate the
upgrade criteria, as openQA testing indicates the issue does not affect
clean upgrades from F41 to F43.

Resolution: Rejected as a Final blocker.

-----

(2397163) [5] openh264 repository issues (like geoblocking) prevent various
package management operations

Geoblocking and other issues with the Cisco `openh264` repository are
preventing some package management operations for users in affected
locations. While this is an inconvenient situation, the group agreed it
should not block the release, as the issue is not entirely under Fedora's
control and is not specific to Fedora 43. The team will wait for Cisco to
refine its geoblocking before considering any action on the Fedora side.

Resolution: Rejected as a Final blocker.

-----

(2397256) [6] gnome-shell crashes when dragging a Chromium tab into a new
window

`gnome-shell` crashes when a user drags a tab out of a Chromium or Google
Chrome browser window to create a new window. Although Chromium is not a
default browser, it is widely used. The group considered this a "regular
operation," and the consequence—a full desktop crash—is severe enough to
block the release.

Resolution: Accepted as a Final blocker.

-----

(2395811) [7] libreoffice language packs not found in gnome-software

LibreOffice language packs are not discoverable in GNOME Software. This was
rejected as a blocker because it doesn't violate any release criteria, and
it was noted that this is consistent with the long-standing behavior on KDE.

Resolution: Rejected as a Final blocker. The bug is already accepted as a
Freeze Exception.

-----

(2396309) [8] Radxa Rock Pi 4 and Pine64 RockPro64 boards fail to boot,
probably all RockChip models

Release-blocking Workstation and KDE aarch64 disk images fail to boot on
all RockChip-based SBCs.

Resolution: Accepted as a Final blocker. This violates the criterion that
"All release-blocking images must boot in their supported configurations".

-----

## Accepted Final blockers Progress

(2360054) [9] Everything boot x86\_64 image exceeds maximum size: Adam
Williamson investigated and found the size could be reduced to under 1.2G,
but the 1G target is unlikely. This issue also affects other netinstall
images. Adam will propose some package trims and also suggest increasing
the size limit to 1.2G.

(2360056) [10] Workstation live x86\_64 image exceeds maximum size: Adam
Williamson has also looked into this issue.

(2394358) [11] Container\_Toolbox container x86\_64 image exceeds maximum
size: The root cause is now better understood, and the issue is pending
action from the toolbox team.

(2394213) [12] default hostonly-mode "sloppy" results in significant
increase in initramfs size: The issue is being actively worked on between
upstream and downstream, with a resolution expected.

(2391242) [13] Graphical glitches, slow performance and/or crashes using
Firefox on AMD graphics adapters: Significant progress has been made, and
the problem is now understood to be a Firefox bug. The team is confident it
can be resolved soon.

(2394950) [14] No thumbnails for video, music, epub and pdf formats: A
resolution plan is in place and is being handled by the desktop team.

(2395957) [15] Incorrect keyboard layout in Initial Setup: The desktop team
has been made aware of this issue and needs to investigate.

(2372978) [16] packagekitd consumes high CPU if google-chrome repository is
enabled: A fix has been proposed and tested. The team is waiting for a new
`libdnf` release, but Adam Williamson may backport the fix sooner due to
the bug's severity.

(2394561) [17] SELinux is preventing systemd from 'open' accesses on the
file /tmp/webui-cockpit-ws.env: Adam Williamson and Lukáš Růžička will work
with the cockpit team to explain the blocker status and find a path forward.
