If you don't have time to maintain this package, consider orphaning it, so maintainers of dependent packages realize the problem. If you don't react accordingly to the policy for FTBFS/FTI bugs (https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/fesco/Fails_to_build_from_source_Fails_to_install/), your package may be orphaned in 8+ weeks. P.S. The data was generated solely from koji buildroot, so it might be newer than the latest compose or the content on mirrors. To reproduce, use the koji/local repo only, e.g. in mock: $ mock -r fedora-44-x86_64 --config-opts mirrored=False install gala gala-devel P.P.S. If this bug has been reported in the middle of upgrading multiple dependent packages, please consider using side tags: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/fesco/Updates_Policy/#updating-inter-dependent-packages Thanks!
This requires changes in upstream gala and wingpanel to support Mutter 50.

Proposed as a Freeze Exception for 44-final by Fedora user decathorpe using the blocker tracking app because: The pending update that is associated with this bug fixes a FTBFS / FailsToInstall issue with GNOME / mutter v50 for the "gala" package. It would be nice to have a non-broken version in the GA repo instead of one that doesn't install due to broken dependencies.
Discussed at 2026-04-06 blocker/FE review meeting: https://meetbot-raw.fedoraproject.org//blocker-review_matrix_fedoraproject-org/2026-04-06/f44-blocker-review.2026-04-06-16.00.html . Accepted as a freeze exception, as we typically accept FTI bugs in order to improve the consistency of the frozen release repository and avoid problems for folks who upgrade during the Final freeze.
FEDORA-2026-ddac598c88 (gala-8.4.1^20260325.git4b15f84-1.fc44) has been pushed to the Fedora 44 stable repository. If problem still persists, please make note of it in this bug report.
