Per testcase_stats many of the non-automated test cases haven't been done yet in the F45 cycle, or rarely. It would be a good idea for us to do one or two early runs before we reach the branch point and Beta freeze, so we can identify blockers early and have more time to address them.

For scrum purposes (sigh) this probably needs to be an epic, we can break it down by person or by 'topic' (Installation, Base etc.) I guess.

@pbrobinson would particularly like us to do some raspberry pi testing so he has more time to address any blockers we find. Do we actually have an rpi5 yet? He'd like us to test that as well as the 4 if possible.

Basically any aarch64, but I know QE requested they wanted to focus on RPi

Meh changed my mind, we can make this an 8 pointer I think, it can fit in a sprint.

just found interesting one: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2513643

file 5.47 classifies .service files as "application/x-wine-extension-ini" instead of "text/plain".
And brp-mangle-shebangs from redhat-rpm-config doesn't detect them as text files and skips the chmod -x step.

Result: ~20 packages in F45 ship systemd units with 755 instead of 644.

its also "RFE" for redhat-rpm-macros https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2513837

@adamwill and what to do with that +-20 services in rawhide with 644 permissions?

Filed weston SEGV crash on Xfce image: BZ #2513853. Turns out it was a duplicate of longstanding BZ #2358688.
Used Claude to try and troubleshoot the problem and after a few iterations found a working fix - updated the bug with the finding.

OK, thanks everyone - I think we all completed all the tests we intended now, and filed several useful bugs. Closing.
