Note: GNOME desktop cannot be installed at this point, but KDE, XFCE and LXDE contain Fedora 17 artwork. Sugar seems to have Fedora 18 wallpaper though. (In reply to comment #1) > Note: GNOME desktop cannot be installed at this point, but KDE, XFCE and > LXDE contain Fedora 17 artwork. Sugar seems to have Fedora 18 wallpaper > though. Martin Briza is working on Spherical Cow KDE theme. Xfce and LXDE are not release blocking desktops, so they don't matter. KDE is, though. We need KDE and GNOME art to be F18 or generic, not refer to F17. Martin, it would help to have a more precise list of problematic images you've identified. thanks! Regarding KDE, those are KDM theme and wallpaper, which are subject of 849998. For GNOME, we'll have to wait until it's installable. GRUB Boot Menu has also what appears to be Fedora 17 theme. Discussed at 2012-08-22 blocker review meeting. We agreed this isn't a clear blocker as things stand: there's a separate bug for the KDE artwork, so the only clearly identified 'offender' here is the grub background. It is the one from F17, but it does not identify a specific release at all, it's really just a generic image. The intent of the criterion in question is to avoid the possibility of confusion for users, and it's not clear that this image really has any potential to confuse anyone as to what release they're running. We agreed to leave the status of this bug open for a week so we can discuss with the artwork/design team whether grub backgrounds should match the release theme, possibly rework the criterion to match its intent better, and check other bits of artwork like the GNOME background. Discussed at 2012-08-27 QA meeting, functioning as a blocker review meeting. Needed information has not yet been obtained per comment #6. Just FYI, the package that should set the defaut backgrounds (for GNOME, XFCE, LXDE, LXDM, LightDM, etc.; NOT KDE, KDM and boot loaders) is currently pending in bodhi. https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2012-12268/desktop-backgrounds-18.0.0-1.fc18 Somehow, I hadn't managed to update it before Alpha freeze started... Discussed at 2012-08-29 blocker review meeting. I had proposed some revisions to the artwork criteria on test@, in response to the previous discussion of this bug, where we felt the criteria may be incorrect. The revisions look to be generally approved of by the group, so for the purposes of the meeting we took them to be in force: under the revised criteria, this bug does not constitute a blocker, so rejectedblocker. This message is a reminder that Fedora 18 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 18. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '18'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 18's end of life. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 18 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 18's end of life. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. Fedora 18 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2014-01-14. Fedora 18 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this bug. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed. |
