uboot-tools-2018.03-0.9.rc4.fc28 has been submitted as an update to Fedora 28. https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2018-2b6c1571ac

Comment 3 Paul Whalen 2018-03-08 14:00:03 UTC

Proposing as a blocker for Beta, this affects the Rpi3 on both armhfp and aarch64, criteria "All release-blocking images must boot in their supported configurations."

Comment 7 Geoffrey Marr 2018-03-12 20:43:51 UTC

Discussed during the 2018-03-12 blocker review meeting: [1]

The decision to classify this bug as an AcceptedBlocker was made as it violates the following blocker criteria:

"All release-blocking images must boot in their supported configurations" for the release-blocking ARM minimal and Xfce disk images on Raspberry Pi 3, which is a supported ARM platform per https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Architectures/ARM/Supported_Platforms
