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

Accepted blockers
-----------------
1.  anaconda — https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2016613 — ASSIGNED
When running anaconda on Wayland with two keyboard layouts configured,
hitting any modifier key with the second layout selected switches to
the first layout

adamwill's research shows that this bug has existed since F25, but
became more viisble after KDE switched to Wayland by default. This bug
was deferred to F36 Beta under the "too hard to fix" exception.
jkonecny is working on  a fix to disconnect keyboard control between
Anaconda and the live environment.

2. anaconda — https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2032085 — ON_QA
Some variants are missing /etc/resolv.conf symlink (use systemd-resolved)

Some variants are not using systemd-resolved as intended. With some
recently-merged changes to Anaconda, this appears to be working
correctly now, at least for ostree variants. FEDORA-2022-cf175d0e19
contains a candidate fix.

3. fedora-release —
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2018271 — ASSIGNED
fedora-release-identity-cloud says "Cloud Edition", Cloud has not been
an edition for years

Waived from F35 final under the "late blocker exception." Cloud WG is
working on a proposal to re-promote Cloud to Edition status, but that
will not happen for F36 release cycle. Council is poised to waive
this: https://pagure.io/Fedora-Council/tickets/issue/389

4. mlocate — https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2052433 — ASSIGNED
F35 with mlocate installed cannot be upgraded to F36 due to conflict
with plocate

The original change proposal planned for mlocate and plocate to be
parallel available in F36. However, this turns out to be more
challenging than expected. We have a path forward that will correctly
handle upgrades will allowing users to opt into keeping mlocate, it
just needs to be implemented.

5. mutter — https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2017043 — NEW
GNOME doesn't accept input from wireless keyboard if there's not
another "keyboard" input available

On some hardware, devices with multiple capabilities that include
keyboard do not get registered as a keyboard. Thus they only work if
another keyboard is connected. It seems to mostly (or exclusively)
affect some ARM hardware. This appears to be a design flaw in mutter
and is reported upstream as
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/issues/2154

6. plasma-discover — https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2057531 — NEW
Discover does not display applications correctly.

Discover was only showing Flatpaks, not RPMs. Refreshing appstream
partially helped. In recent composes, the behavior no longer appears.

7. firefox — https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2057193 — NEW
f36 composes still have firefox 96, f34 f35 have firefox 97

Builds of Firefox 97, which contains security fixes, are failing on
F36 and Rawhide due to a GCC 12 internal error.
FEDORA-2022-e056239611 contains a fix for those issues, but is
apparently incomplete.

8. oz — https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2057600 — ON_QA
Initial Setup startup failed due to invalid kickstart file

A previous fix for the "initial-setup doesn't require creating an
admin user" (RHBZ 2015490) assumes a kickstart file will be available,
which is not the case. This results in ARM images not booting to
initial-setup. This has been reverted in FEDORA-2022-c263b25459

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

1. NetworkManager-openvpn —
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2057719 — NEW
After upgrade gnome-control-center to 42~beta-1.fc37 unable to
configure VPN connection

VPN connections can't be configured with recent gnome-control-center
builds. This appears to be because the NetworkManager-* plugins are
still using GTK3, which can't work with a GTK4 gnome-control-center.
Work is in progress to update the plugins.

2. dnfdragora — https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2060414 — NEW
On Fedora 36 KDE, dnfdragora does not start.

dnfdragora fails with a libyui error. There seems to be a bootstrap
issue because libyui-bindings is part of libyui now. The question of
whether two graphical package managers can be blocking is under
discussion.
