Update on i686 Rawhide boot problems
by Jeff Backus
Hi folks,
I've made some progress tracking down the issues with kernel 4.18 booting
on i686, which is causing all of the i686 images to fail QA.
The quick summary is something introduced in kernel 4.18 (after rc0.git2.1)
is causing systemd to coredump, dropping the user to a dracut prompt. I was
able to reproduce this on a Fedora 28 install with the default systemd in
the repos.
I've filed the following BZ:

cmake segfault on 32-bit arches on Rawhide
by Adam Williamson
I just tried a rebuild of a package in Rawhide, it worked on most
arches, but failed on armv7hl and i686 (our only 32-bit arches). On
both arches, cmake seems to have segfaulted:

Just wanted to flag this up. I haven't yet tried doing the build in a
mock to try and get the core out, or anything like that.

Notice: 32-bit x86 is at risk of being dropped from Fedora
by Randy Barlow
Greetings!
FESCo met today to discuss an i686 build failure[0] in which it seems that the x86 SIG did not have a timely response, which resulted in wider-than-expected problems in the distribution due to causing build failures in other dependent packages. FESCo hereby notifies the x86 SIG that future events like this one may result in dropping i686 support from Fedora.
The kernel team has proposed splitting out the kernel-headers package to alleviate similar problems in the future.

Looking for x86-related fires
by Jeff Backus
Hi folks,
I'm going to take a whack at triaging x86-related bugs. I see a few listed
on the x86 tracker bug and the x86 exclude arch bug, which I'll take a
closer look at.
Before I start searching for anything i686-related, are there any issues
you'd like us to take a look at first?
