Hi folks, and welcome to the Fedora 20 Beta blocker bug news... The bad news is that we're still some way from a viable Beta RC. We need work on several blockers, all of which is outlined below. I'll start with bugs that need work from developers; QA folks, there are tasks for us listed later on. Accepted blockers - anaconda and python-blivet ---------------------------------------------- * https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=986575 - "installer fails to apply lower bound to resize requests in custom spoke" - this bug has been open for a while and needs a fix from anaconda team, when they have time. * https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1010495 - "Apple Mac EFI: you have not created a bootloader stage1 target device" - this bug breaks the most common installation scenarios for Apple systems (guided install alongside an existing OS X install). bcl has been working on fixing it: back in September he posted an initial patch, then decided that it was not sufficient - https://lists.fedorahosted.org/pipermail/anaconda-patches/2013-September/006270.html . There is no information since then that I can find. * https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1016959 - "ValueError: Cannot remove non-leaf device 'btrfs.14'" - this is a crasher with certain existing btrfs volumes. dlehman posted a plan on how to fix it, but there is no proposed patch that I can find. Accepted blockers - other ------------------------- * https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1000891 - "DVD is oversized (larger than 4.7 GB)" (spin-kickstarts, comps, pungi) - a fix for this was scheduled for TC3, but it caused the DVD compose to break, and was backed out to produce a testable TC4. TC5 continued without the problematic fix (and hence is still over-size). AIUI, dgilmore was supposed to be looking into the compose issue, but I believe he is now on vacation, so we may need someone else to step in: CCing nirik and notting. * https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1013767 - "rootfs on thinp not found, startup failure" (dracut) - an update containing a fix for this has been submitted - https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/dracut-034-18.git20131018.fc20 - but one reliable tester has reported that it breaks boot on their system, so further developer work may be required here, harald: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1021083 * https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1015234 - "F20 Beta TC1 ARM disk images unable to find root filesystem" (dracut) - this bug is marked as an unresolved blocker but has in fact been worked around since, I believe, TC2. We can probably ship Beta with the workaround, and this may just need some Bugzilla Bureaucracy rather than developer attention at this point. Proposed blockers ----------------- * https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1020974 - "incorrectly treats a disk with partially corrupt GPT as having no partition at all" (anaconda) - this looks like it could well be accepted as a blocker, so developer attention would be appreciated. * https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1005895 - "Upgrade to f20 fails because of deltarpms" (fedup) - Will posted a proposed fix for informal testing; Will, one of the reporters has confirmed the fix is good, so can you please submit an update? Thanks! Bugs requiring QA attention --------------------------- * https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1017435 - "Anaconda uses LVM when Standard Partition is selected in text mode" (anaconda) - this bug has been verified fixed by the update https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/python-blivet-0.23.1-1.fc20,anaconda-20.25.1-1.fc20 , but that update needs more karma to go stable. That is the build that is in TC5, so anyone who's tested TC5 and found it generally OK (no worse than previous builds) can +1 the update: please do! * https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1013800 - "devicetree.py:1293:handleVgLvs:DeviceTreeError: failed to look up thin pool" (python-blivet) - this is believed to be fixed by the https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/python-blivet-0.23.1-1.fc20,anaconda-20.25.1-1.fc20 update (and hence in TC5). We need to verify the fix and add karma to the update so it can be pushed stable and the bug closed. * https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1019500 - "device factories need to set a default name if empty name given for defined device" - exactly the same as 1013800: this should be fixed in TC5, please confirm the fix and up-karma the update. This has been your blocker bug news, folks - if everyone can help out with fixing the remaining issues and testing the anaconda/blivet update, that'd be a great help.
