This seems to be the same bug as bug 1069652.

After clean installation of F23 RC2 there is failed mcelog.service after boot.

1. Install Server from F23 Server DVD RC2
2. Boot and log in
3. systemctl --failed --all

Actual results:
mcelog.service failed

Expected results:


Additional info:
I propose this as a blocker as it violates the criterion: "All system services present after installation with one of the release-blocking package sets must start properly, unless they require hardware which is not present."

I'm -1 blocker as it probably happens only on one particular processor family.

CCing jwb as this seems to involve kernel stuff.

Comment 2 Adam Williamson 2015-10-22 16:58:48 UTC

Discussed at 2015-10-22 Go/No-Go meeting, acting as a blocker review meeting: https://meetbot-raw.fedoraproject.org/fedora-meeting-2/2015-10-22/f23-final-go_no_go-meeting.2015-10-22-16.00.log.txt . Rejected as a blocker, as it seems pretty clearly limited to a specific processor family, and it's only really a polish bug - it doesn't have any severe consequence. (The criterion is there for polish purposes, it looks bad if there's a failing service on *every* install, or a large chunk of them).

There's a whole kernel team, not just me.  Feel free to CC kernel-team.

For this specific bug, Prarit already described what is happening in the bug Petr pointed to.  You might as well mark this as a duplicate.

ah, sorry - didn't realize there was a BZ alias. I just use you as a proxy. :P

dupe sounds good. also, i should fix my bureaucracy!
