Here is an AI-generated summary of a Blocker review meeting [1] from
October 13, 2025.
Please be aware that the summary is intended for a quick convenient
recapitulation of the meeting, but might contain factual errors. Read the
full meeting log for all the details.

# Proposed Final Blockers

The purpose of the meeting was to review proposed blocker bugs for the
upcoming Fedora 43 release.

## (2402675) WebUI keyboard error with 'typing-booster' layout [2]

The installer's WebUI shows a KeyboardConfigurationError when the
'typing-booster' layout is active on the live system, stating it can't be
used for installation.

Resolution: Rejected. The team decided this was not a blocker because users
can simply select a different, standard keyboard layout to proceed with the
installation.

## (2402976) Rescue mode fails to mount /boot and /boot/efi [3]

Rescue mode is not correctly mounting the /boot and /boot/efi partitions,
making system repairs more difficult.

Resolution: Accepted. This was accepted as a Final Blocker because it's a
clear regression that violates the rescue mode release criteria.

## (2389356) Anaconda WebUI crashes with "Password is too weak" error [4]

The installer's WebUI sometimes crashes with a "Password is too weak"
error, which appears to be a race condition.

Resolution: Rejected. The issue was rejected as a blocker because it
happens infrequently and could not be reproduced intentionally. The
decision could be reconsidered if the crash becomes more common or a
reliable way to trigger it is found.

## (2402147) Input source menu for IME unavailable after initial setup [5]

After a user configures an Input Method Editor (IME) in the
gnome-initial-setup wizard, the input source menu is not available in the
resulting session.

Resolution: Accepted. This was accepted as a Final Blocker because it
breaks the first boot experience for users of IMEs, violating release
criteria.

## (2399599) System freezes when using QuickMenu sliders with touchscreen
[6]

On systems with a touchscreen, using the volume or brightness sliders in
the GNOME Shell Quick Menu causes the entire system to freeze.

Resolution: Accepted. This bug was accepted as a Final Blocker because it
violates the criterion that all default panel elements must function
correctly, which includes use with a touchscreen.

## (2401216) Wi-Fi regression for Mediatek MT7922 [7]

A regression is causing Wi-Fi to fail on hardware with the Mediatek MT7922
chipset.

Resolution: Accepted. This was accepted as a Final Blocker because the
Wi-Fi chip is widespread, and the failure violates the basic network
requirements for affected hardware.

## (2363937) Postfix service disabled on upgrade [8]

The postfix.service is being disabled after a system upgrade from Fedora 41
to 42.

Resolution: Punted. The decision was deferred because the issue is not
understood well enough to be considered a blocker at this time.

## (2401964) uboot-tools-2025.10 is available [9]

This bug tracks the availability of a new version of uboot-tools.

Resolution: Rejected. This was rejected as a blocker because no specific
problem violating release criteria was identified that this update would
fix. The team is open to granting a freeze exception if a clear benefit for
the installation media is presented.
