Re: Fedora Linux 35 Final blocker review summary

Ok, I understand the point, I too have lived with some of these bugs and don't noticed them until now. It's fair to move on and don't hold the release hostage as Matthew said, but for that I think we should add some rule, policie or something to the release blocking criteria allowing that, because most of these bugs meet one or other criteria and we must be consistent.

      So, by that thought, if a bug meet the blocking
        criteria but have not been caught in the previous release by a
        mistake of the team (as no one pointed before as blocker bug)
        that bug can no more be blocker? 

    That's my opinion. If the bug is already present in a previous
      release why it should block the next? If no one had never reported
      or even noticed the bug in the previous version I doubt it should
      be considered a blocker.
    In this specific case, I used to have a bare metal machine which
      had been updated during years between Fedora releases. I was using
      F34 on that old machine and I never noticed neither the
      plasma-discover or the KScreenLocker bugs. I then upgraded my PC,
      installed F34 from clean and started noticing those bugs. I can
      live with them during my everyday workstation usage, certainly
      they're annoying (especially the KScreenLocker bug, the
      plasma-discover bug has disappeared after some upgrades), but that
      wouldn't prevent me from upgrading to F35.
    I must also add that, searching in the web about those bugs, I
      can found users hitting them long time ago. But KDE never fixed
      them. I also tried to upgrade KScreenLocker to the next available
      version (available only in F36) and only partially fix the
      problem. So, if we had to wait for KDE to fix those bugs, we are
      going to delay F35 release for a long time...
