Bug-by-bug detail
=============

Accepted blockers
-----------------
1. sddm — https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1929643 — NEW
logout after switch returns the user to console instead of sddm

Using the "Switch User" functionality in sddm results in dropping to a
console: either to tty2 with a working text login prompt, or to tty1
where only a blinking cursor appears (no login prompt). This may be
limited to Wayland sessions. This is a known, unresolved issue
upstream: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1929643 . It is
also possible to disable user switching so that we don't hit this.
Upstream hopes to have a fix by early next week.

2. shim — https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1938630 — POST
include new bootloaders on Fedora 34 install media so UEFI Secure Boot
enabled systems can boot from them

The current shim was signed in 2018 and its signing key was revoked
last year due to the Boothole vulnerability. We need a new shim to
make sure F34 images will boot on machines with Secure Boot enabled.
shim-15.4-3 (FEDORA-2021-cab258a413) does not work on at least some
hardware configurations. Adam has a pending PR upstream that may fix
the issue he encountered: https://github.com/rhboot/shim/pull/362

3. plasma-discover — https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1943943 — NEW
Hitting "Update All" in Plasma Discover sometimes does nothing, just cycles back

It takes several clicks of the "Update All" button before Discover
updates packages. Hitting Refresh causes it to work, but should not be
necessary, since the tests run `pkcon refresh` before trying updates
in Discover.

4. anaconda — https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1947157 — POST
disk image creation fails when excluding kernel-lpae on 32-bit arm

anaconda did not allow the lpae package to be excluded in a kickstart.
Upstream pull request fixes this:
https://github.com/rhinstaller/anaconda/pull/3284

5. dracut  https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1946074  ON_QA
boot failure when LV is a cryptoluks device used as sysroot

The LVM->LUKS->FS layout fails to boot in initramfs with
dractut-053-1. Update FEDORA-2021-50707f8501 contains a candidate fix.

6. uboot-tools — https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1946278 — ASSIGNED
latest uboot fails to load the dtb

Recent uboot releases fail to load the dtb. Some supported systems
boot using dtb provided by firmware, but others will not boot.

Proposed blockers
-----------------

1. fedora-release — https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1947704 — NEW
Do final F34 fedora-release and fedora-repos builds

We need a fedora-release package with a release >=1 (currently 0.14)
and a fedora-repos build with updates-testing disabled.

2. kde-settings — https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1947446 — ON_QA
F34 plasma theming should use new BreezeTwilight

BreezeTwilight lookandfeel isn't fully respected.
FEDORA-2021-9b396d2e84 contains a candidate fix.
