@adamw and @pboy is looking into this later this week

Sigh, and the auto-blocking still isn't working. This is an automatic Beta blocker per https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:SOP_blocker_bug_process#Automatic_blockers , "Any release-blocking Beta or Final image exceeding its maximum size (failures of QA:Testcase_Mediakit_ISO_Size)".

https://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org/compose/rawhide/Fedora-Rawhide-20220110.n.0/compose/Server/x86_64/iso/Fedora-Server-netinst-x86_64-Rawhide-20220110.n.0.iso is 767557632 , so this is just getting worse. I'll see if I can figure out what's going on.

Here's a diff between the packages pulled into an F35 everything installer image, and the F36 server installer image (I don't have logs from an f35 server installer image). Left out some identity stuff which is just everything vs. server and 35 vs. rawhide.

+initscripts-service
-iptables-legacy-libs
-ipw2100-firmware
-ipw2200-firmware
+libbpf
+libffi3.1
+lilv
-logrotate
+lv2
+malcontent-libs
+openssl1.1
+python3-packaging
+python3-pyparsing
+serd
+sord
+sratom

I'll look into those and see how much of a problem each is, and why they're getting pulled in.

Looks like none of those are very big. I think we're back in firmware hell here. It seems like Marvell Prestera firmwares aren't in a subpackage any more in the latest build, and maybe some other big firmwares got added. I'll dig into it and see what we can do here.

OK, I sent a build of linux-firmware which corrects that problem:

https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=1876339

That probably doesn't account for *all* the bloat, but may get us back under the limit at least. I'll maybe see if I can find anything else after that.

https://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org/compose/rawhide/Fedora-Rawhide-20220111.n.1/compose/Server/x86_64/iso/Fedora-Server-netinst-x86_64-Rawhide-20220111.n.1.iso is 719323136 , so we're good now.

Server boot x86_64 image https://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org/compose/rawhide/Fedora-Rawhide-20220202.n.1/compose/Server/x86_64/iso/Fedora-Server-netinst-x86_64-Rawhide-20220202.n.1.iso from compose Fedora-Rawhide-20220202.n.1 is 783286272 bytes, exceeding the maximum size 734003200.

lorax 36.5 (36.6 is now tagged) should fix this the next time we get a successful compose.

Server boot x86_64 image https://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org/compose/rawhide/Fedora-Rawhide-20220205.n.1/compose/Server/x86_64/iso/Fedora-Server-netinst-x86_64-Rawhide-20220205.n.1.iso from compose Fedora-Rawhide-20220205.n.1 is 736100352 bytes, exceeding the maximum size 734003200.

This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 36 development cycle.
Changing version to 36.

https://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org/compose/branched/Fedora-36-20220216.n.0/compose/Server/x86_64/iso/Fedora-Server-netinst-x86_64-36-20220216.n.0.iso is 708837376 bytes, so the problem is fixed until the next time it's broken.
