Comment 1 Fedora Blocker Bugs Application 2018-09-12 14:29:14 UTC 
Proposed as a Blocker for 29-final by Fedora user lruzicka using the blocker tracking app because:

 The bug violates the following criteria for Final Release: All applications that can be launched using the standard graphical mechanism of a release-blocking desktop after a default installation of that desktop must start successfully and withstand a basic functionality test.
