Here is an AI-generated summary of a Blocker review meeting [1] from
September 29, 2025.
Please be aware that the summary is intended for a quick convenient
recapitulation of the meeting, but might contain factual errors. Read the
full meeting log for all the details.

## Proposed Final blocker

(2395731) Overview, keyboard stops working [2]

The issue describes the keyboard becoming unresponsive in the GNOME Shell
Overview. Adam Williamson noted he would support it as a blocker if it were
easily reproducible. However, several participants, including Lukáš
Růžička, Kamil Páral, and Neal Gompa, reported they were unable to
reproduce the bug after trying. The bug had already been accepted as a
Freeze Exception and its fix was tested.

Resolution: Rejected as a Final blocker. The issue was rejected because it
does not appear to be easily reproducible. The fix will still be included
in the Final release as it was previously accepted as a Freeze Exception.

## Proposed Final freeze exceptions

(2388961) glycin backend saving jpg format does not work at all [3]

This bug report states that saving files in JPEG format fails when using
the glycin backend for gdk-pixbuf2. The discussion highlighted that the
specific user impact was unclear. The core of the problem seems to be that
loading a JPEG incorrectly results in a pixbuf with an alpha channel, which
then causes an error when trying to save it. Because no one could point to
a specific, commonly used application affected by this, the group was
hesitant to accept it as a Freeze Exception. Simon de Vlieger suggested
delaying the decision to allow time to find an affected application and
demonstrate a clearer impact.

Resolution: Punted. The decision was postponed to allow time for someone to
demonstrate a concrete problem in a typical use case.

(2399953) Grey rectangles were shown for VLC and GIMP instead of their
icons in Plasma Welcome Center [4]

In the Plasma Welcome Center, icons for some applications like VLC and GIMP
were being displayed as generic grey rectangles. Geraldo S. Simião Kutz,
who proposed the bug, argued that this creates a poor first impression for
users. The sentiment was shared by most participants, who voted in favor of
an exception. Adam Williamson humorously defended the grey squares as an
"artistic vision" before conceding to the "barbarians" who preferred actual
icons.

Resolution: Accepted as a Final Freeze Exception. The issue was accepted to
ensure a better visual first experience in the Plasma desktop.

## Accepted Final blockers

(2396899) All crashes are ignored by ABRT because of "Package isn't signed
with proper key" [5]

There has been no progress on this bug. It is waiting on the developer for
a fix.

(2396646) The web UI doesn't warn users when reusing a /home partition on
an encrypted disk. [6]

The fix for this issue has been verified and is ready to be pushed in a
stable update.

(2360056) Fedora 43: Workstation live x86\_64 image exceeds maximum size [7]

Adam Williamson is investigating the cause of the image size increase, but
standard tools like `du` and `baobab` are providing nonsensical data,
possibly due to the erofs filesystem. While the size limit can be bumped as
a last resort, he would prefer to first identify what is consuming the
space. Simon de Vlieger offered to assist with the investigation.

(2394213) default hostonly-mode "sloppy" results in significant increase in
initramfs size [8]

A fix is still pending from the developer. A related patch was backported
to Fedora 42 and has reportedly fixed the issue there, but a similar fix
has not yet landed in Fedora 43. The bug remains a blocker as it prevents
some devices, like the Raspberry Pi Zero 2, from booting.

(2394950) No thumbnails for video, music, epub and pdf formats [9]

Progress is being made on this issue. A new upstream version of `glycin`
has been released, and Fabio Valentini is working on packaging it, which
should resolve the problem.

(2397086) Drop-down menus not working over RDP in Anaconda [10]

The root cause of this bug is still unknown. Paul Maconi mentioned that he
encountered the same behavior with drop-down menus in Anaconda's custom
partitioning interface within a Proxmox VM, suggesting the issue may not be
limited to RDP sessions. Paul will attempt to reproduce the problem
reliably and add his findings to the bug report.

(2384724) image-builder: disk image for rockpi4 is not bootable [11]

There was considerable discussion around this issue. The initial problem,
which was a lack of space for firmware on the disk image, has been fixed by
Neal Gompa. However, Peter Boy reported that while Rockchip devices now
reach the GRUB bootloader, they fail to boot any further. A debate ensued
on whether this constitutes a new bug or if the original bug is not truly
fixed until the device is usable. The team decided to continue the
discussion in the bug report to determine the next steps.

(2397256) gnome-shell crashes when dragging a Chromium tab into a new
window [12]

The fix for this crash has been verified and is waiting to be pushed as a
stable update.

(2394561) SELinux is preventing systemd from 'open' accesses on the file
/tmp/webui-cockpit-ws.env. [13]

A fix is available upstream and is awaiting a new downstream package build.
