>From what I can tell, it looks like the -90 update got 'auto-pushed' by
hitting +3 karma, despite the fact that two people had reported the
regression in Bodhi. This is a classic case of 'works for me' positive
feedback overriding 'there's a regression!' feedback, which is one of
the issues we're trying to fix with the proposals to improve Bodhi.

For now, might I suggest disabling auto-push for kernel updates?
