We still have the problem that people without editbugs privileges can't change the Blocks: field, though :(. If you have the power to edit that field and you think a bug should be a blocker, _please_ just edit the field and put the appropriate bug alias in there - FXXAlpha to nominate a bug as an Alpha blocker, FXXBeta to nominate it as a Beta blocker, and FXXBlocker to nominate it as a Final blocker. See https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:SOP_blocker_bug_process for more details. You aren't assuming any special powers by doing so, you're not 'making' the bug a blocker - you're only nominating it as one. No-one will be angry with you, the bug will be reviewed at a blocker review meeting, and it can very easily be rejected if we decide it isn't a blocker. Nominating a blocker is never a destructive action. So please, always err on the side of doing it. :) If you think a bug should be a blocker but you don't have the power to edit the field, _please_ contact QA, either in #fedora-qa or on the mailing list. Someone with the power will nominate the bug for you. It's important to realize that there's no-one in Fedora whose job it is to look at every bug and decide whether it should be a blocker: we _really_ need people who think 'hmm, this bug should be a blocker' to speak up, otherwise there's a chance it may be missed. > https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=813973 > "Preupgrade fails to build proper squashfs.img URL on boot with small > boot partitions" > Not apparent till you've downloaded all packages and rebooted into the > installer. I'll take a look at that one, thanks. -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Twitter: AdamW_Fedora | identi.ca: adamwfedora http://www.happyassassin.net -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
