Hi Lukas, Sorry for the delay in reply, it got lost in the mess of my inbox. > I am writing this email to raise awareness well ahead of the F41 branching > on August 6 about the bugs I found while running Fedora Rawhide on the RPi 4. > I have proposed these bugs as blockers for the F41 release: > > * gnome-initial-setup: Choosing avatar results in SetIconFile call failed for > unknown reason [0] > I proposed this as F41 Final blocker, but this is fairly minor bug and I can > imagine that we would waive it if not fixed and create a common issue. TBH that doesn't look RPi specific, does it work if you set SELinux to permissive? It seems like a perms/access problem to me. > * gsk: vulkan renderer breaks gtk4 apps on Raspberry Pi 4 and 400 [1] > GSK now defaults to vulkan and it causes problems on RPi, I initially > encountered crashing gnome-initial-setup (and later that all GTK4 apps are > crashing upon startup).

What is GSK?

I am absolutely against blocking on suspend for RPi or any specific platform, this is completely out of our control and it's not supported even on downstream kernel forks, it's dependent on issues with closed FW which is completely out of our control. There's reasons we don't block on suspend on x86 so I am unsure why we'd explicitly decide to torture arm maintainers with that.
