The [1] had been merged recently and is part of the 50.beta, thus the upcoming Fedora Linux 44. Others will need backport.

Comment 3 Milan Crha 2026-03-17 06:51:29 UTC
Considering f42 reaching its end of life soonish and the backport to the f42 won't be simple I decided to cover only f43 with the backport, which was not smooth too, but also not too complicated.
