Hi,
thanks for your reply, there should not be any packages on critical path, which are not building currently.
HEADS-UP:
The plan for merging autoconf-2.71 to rawhide is Monday (30th Aug 2021), if no issues will come up. After that, there is no need to do a regular build of dependent packages, but we will schedule a scratch-build, which should be enough to test, if everything works as expected. According to results of these scratch-builds, F36FTBFS trackers in bugzilla will be created for each failed package.
I will send a message to this thread after merging and building autoconf-2.71, to make things clear.
Thanks.
Ondrej

Are any of these on the critical path (ie would cause composes to fail?)
I don't see any off hand, but if so, I would get those fixed before
landing if you can at all. Otherwise I would say land as soon as you
like.
