About pushing this to stable, I've deliberately disabled auto-pushing to get more testing done before pushing this to stable.

Lets wait about 1 more week for people to get back from holidays and if there are no regression reports in a week then push it to stable.

Neither of those statements are true.

"I honestly don't think anyone has been using it"

That is not true, I still have at least a dozen x86_64 devices which boot with a 32 bit UEFI. And as the person who has been doing most of the kernel side hw-enablement for Intel Bay Trail systems which typically ship with a 32 bit UEFI firmware I can tell you that I still regularly get inquires, bug reports and regression reports about these systems. These systems not only include many smaller laptops (the last generation where 10" laptops where common which some people like) but also various top-set-boxes / NUC style devices used for things like pihole setups and home assistant setups. IOW quite a few people are still using this.

"or that it has even worked in several years."

Again this is also simply not true. I just booted a F43 workstation liveusb on an Asus T100TA (which still is a very popular mini laptop) which has 32 bit UEFI and it boots just fine. So shim-ia32 was working fine until it was disabled.

Please re-enable the shim-ia32 builds and after that we will need to undo all the changes to the various x86_64 compose which were made because of this being disabled out of the blue.

If you insist on disabling shim-ia32 builds for F44 then IMHO you MUST create a change proposal for F44 for this as this will drop support for a whole bunch of hardware which still works fine in F43.

Thanks I can confirm that this release fixes BZ#2158627

BZ#2158627 default gpg-agent systemd service file: default option in file is deprecated

Was the split of the linux-firmware package not supposed to be a Fedora 37 feature? Since this is breaking peoples system left and right IMHO a new update reverting the split should be pushed for F36 and this should be made a F37 only thing? :

This breaks deps for funguloids and cegui-ogre-renderer.

Please unpush this and don't push the Fedora 33 until these issues are resolved (and in that case include the fixed packages in the new update).

Works for me and this fixes the cursor being 90 degrees rotated on devices with a non upright (90 degree rotated) mounted panel. This also fixes the cursor hotspot being wrong inside virtual-machines.
