Upstreams which > really are rolling distros (Arch, Tumbleweed) need to be made non-fatal. I was more asking whether for 4.18 you want to fix only test.yaml or also build.yaml. (Typically it is test.yaml that causes most issues with rolling containers.) .qemu-arm64 and .qemu-arm32 are the only ones using unstable/rolling containers in automation/gitlab-ci/test.yaml (excluding .qemu-riscv64), that's why I was asking about those two specifically. > Then the second part which is also a blocker.
