There's a kind of "surprising" property of the critical path list too - it contains some things you might not expect. We have "critical path" groups for lots of desktops, including ones that aren't release-blocking: deepin, lxde, lxqt, and xfce. The logic here is approximately: things that are critical to those desktops are indeed critical to users of those desktops, and don't affect anybody else. So it makes sense to put them on the "critical path", because to the relatively small subset of users who *do* use those desktops, the updates really *are* critical, and it doesn't hurt users of any other desktop for them to be held up. Still, we might not want to enforce 2FA requirements for those packages. This would be another good reason to make the critpath definition more sophisticated - keeping track of which critpath groups a package is part of. Which I still would like to work on in some of my copious spare time...sigh. -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA IRC: adamw | Twitter: adamw_ha https://www.happyassassin.net _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
