Hi,
Currently we have the following as a final blocker criterion:
"All applications installed by default in Fedora Workstation must comply with each
MUST and MUST NOT guideline in the Applications and Launchers policy."
That policy is:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Workstation/Guidelines/Applications_and_Lau...
We recently noticed that we don't have an available blocker criterion to deal with
issues where an application unexpectedly appears in the default install. In particular,
see
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1449752 which has prompted this. We want
the blivet-gui package maintainers to either create a subpackage for its desktop file, or
otherwise figure something out to prevent blivet-gui from appearing as an application in
our default install. The package maintainers do not want to do this, so we want a blocker
criterion to force a resolution. I see two easy solutions here:
* We could add a new blocker criterion that explicitly says the Workstation WG gets to
decide which applications are installed by default.
* We could add that as a MUST guideline to our applications and launchers policy, since
there is already a blocker criterion that covers that.
I'm planning to do the later and then propose this blivet-gui bug as a blocker. Is the
QA team OK with this course of action? Do you prefer to just add a new criterion?
