We discussed this in the community meeting today:
16:56:07 <dustymabe> yeah - I'll re run the script to update the list too.
We'll try to discuss these during our video meeting next week!
First meeting of the month!
Update the list as of today.
We discussed F36 changes in two different meetings today (pre-meeting, meeting).
In the pre-meeting the goal was to identify changes that didn't impact us or required no action. Here are some outcomes from that:
In the main meeting we carried it further and talked about the tickets that we felt did need discussion:
I have updated the description of this issue with the outcomes of the meeting.
Updated the list as of today. Some items have been moved to F37 and some have been dropped from consideration at all.
Updated the list as of today.
We touched on this again in the meeting today.
11:54:29 dustymabe | #info for 128 "GNU Toolchain Update (gcc 12, glibc 2.35)"
| the wiki says it should be a backwards compatible change.
| We'll monitor, but for now there is nothing for us to do.
We talked about 127.
in the [community meeting today]() and decided to open a ticket to track the investigation:
12:04:58 dustymabe | #info Here is the action update #127. The gcc ppc64le team was
| able build fcos using F36 as host in a P9, P8 failed completely
| in the boot part for F36, they are looking at it, looks the
| issue is related to the bits change. I will keep an eye on how
| it is going
The opened ticket is https://github.com/coreos/fedora-coreos-tracker/issues/1120.
The description of this issue has been updated with all current information as of today.
The 103. DNS Over TLS
change and 228. Wayland by Default for SDDM
change have been moved to Fedora 37.
Closing this out since F36 has shipped.

, https://gitlab.com/redhat/centos-stream/rpms/rpm-ostree/-/merge_requests/2✔️ DNS Over TLS 👉 https://github.com/coreos/fedora-coreos-tracker/issues/1098Fedora will attempt to use DNS over TLS (DoT) if supported by configured DNS servers.Tracking bug: #1889901✔️ DNF/RPM Copy on Write enablement for all variantsRPM Copy on Write provides a better experience for Fedora Users as it reduces the amount of I/O and offsets CPU cost of package decompression. RPM Copy on Write uses reflinking capabilities in btrfs, which is the default filesystem starting from Fedora 33 for most variants. Note that this behavior is not being turned on by default for this Change.Tracking bug: #1915976NOTES JL: not relevant for OSTree-based variants, but definitely related to OSTree conceptually so worth keeping an eye on it at a high-levelNOTES TR: Probably an RFE for rpm-ostree✔️ Drop NIS(+) support from PAMThis change is about dropping user-authentication using NIS(+) from PAM.Tracking bug: #2021660NOTES JL: may affect users who use NIS+? likely not though. If so, we should direct them to e.g. LDAP or FreeIPA as the Change proposal suggests. so overall, skip.✔️ Retire the NIS(+) user-space utility programsThis change is about retiring the ypbind, yp-tools, and ypserv packages, and removal of the {nis,yp}domainname user-space utility programs from the hostname package.Tracking bug: #2022386NOTES JL: may affect users who use NIS+? likely not though. If so, we should direct them to e.g. LDAP or FreeIPA as the Change proposal suggests. so overall, skip.✔️ ELN-ExtrasELN-extras will be a new build target and compose similar in behavior to ELN, but closer to EPEL in function. It will be a place to prepare and maintain packages that may be desired for EPEL N+1 while RHEL N+1 is still being incubated in ELN.Tracking bug: #2028161NOTES JL: skip; we don't ship or consume or monitor anything from EPEL/ELN currently AFAIKFedora 36 Accepted Self-Contained Changes (wiki source)
✔️ glibc 32 Build AdjustmentsThe glibc32 package is a special package used by gcc and a few other packages to work around the lack of RPM multilib repository support in Koji. It is difficult to maintain, and the current approach raises questions regarding (L)GPL compliance.Tracking bug: #1598524NOTES: We don't ship this in FCOS✔️ Ship BerkleyDB backend as a moduleChange the openldap-servers package so that BDB and HDB backends are required to be dynamically loaded.Tracking bug: #1740811✔️ Modular GNOME Keyring servicesThe monolithic daemon provided by GNOME Keyring will be split into dedicated sub-daemons, so that they can be consistently managed by systemd.Tracking bug: #1899998NOTES: We don't ship this in FCOS✔️ SOF as default audio driver for Intel LPE hardwareIntel LPE audio hardware has 2 drivers in the mainline kernel the SST driver and the SOF driver, switch the default driver from SST to SOF.Tracking bug: #1924101NOTES: This concerns only audio devices users. This should not impact FCOS✔️ Wayland by Default for SDDMChange the default display server mode for SDDM to use a Wayland-based greeter rather than an X11-based one.Tracking bug: #2050378NOTES DWM: No action needed. FCOS doesn't use the SDDM graphical display manager.
