Comment 1 Allison King 2026-02-03 19:37:38 UTC
Hi lsm5, how goes this change for F44? The testable deadline is today, February 03, 2026, and changes need to be in good shape at this point https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/program_management/changes_policy/#_change_process_milestones

Please let me know if you need to defer this to F45, otherwise if you're good to go for the change to be ready to meet the testable requirements, please update the status of the tracker bug to MODIFIED.

Thanks!

Hi Allison, we were given until beta freeze https://pagure.io/fesco/issue/3530 . Can we defer this until then please?

Comment 3 Lokesh Mandvekar 2026-02-11 12:49:15 UTC
Hi again Allison, please defer this Change to F45.

Comment 4 Lokesh Mandvekar 2026-07-08 13:04:30 UTC
Podman 6 is now in Rawhide, so I think this can be closed unless we need this as a tracker for F45 release announcements or whatever.
