Template use
This template is intended to be SUBSTITUTED (not transcluded) into Common_bugs pages at the time of their initial creation, while the release they document is still a pre-release. The use of <includeonly>safesubst:</includeonly> is to make nested substitution work correctly: the specified template will not be expanded when the template page is saved or viewed, and will be transcluded instead of substituted if the template is (incorrectly) transcluded rather than substituted. This is as documented on Mediawiki's substitution page. Usage: {{subst:Common_bugs_header_prerelease}} at the top of a common bugs page.



This page documents common bugs in Fedora 40 and, if available, fixes or workarounds for these problems. If you find your problem in this page, do not file a bug for it, unless otherwise instructed. Where appropriate, a reference to the current bug(s) in Bugzilla is included.

Fedora 40 pre-release
Fedora 40 has not yet been released. During this pre-release period, this page will cover known issues in the Fedora 40 pre-releases. Issues that are fixed will be removed from the page once a fix is available (for instance, an issue that affects the Beta but is fixed in the final release will be removed at the time of that release).

Release Notes

Read the F40_Alpha_release_announcement for specific information about changes in Fedora 40 and other general information.


My bug is not listed

Not every bug is listed in this page, but Bugzilla should be a comprehensive database of known bugs. This page is a sampling of the bugs most commonly discussed on our mailing lists and forums.

To see if your bug has already been reported, you can search Bugzilla. If it has not yet been reported, we encourage you to do so to help improve Fedora for yourself and others. A guide to Bugs and feature requests has been prepared to assist you.

If you believe an already-reported bug report should be added to this page because it is commonly encountered, you can:

  • Add it yourself, if you have wiki access. Common bugs instructions provides guidance on how to add an entry to the page correctly, but the most important thing is to make sure that the bug is listed - don't worry if you don't get the format quite right, we can clean it up later.
  • Or, add the CommonBugs keyword to the bug report. Someone from the QA team will then inspect the issue to determine whether the bug should be listed as a common bug. To expedite your request, please add a comment to the bug that includes
    1. a summary of the problem
    2. any known workarounds
    3. an assessment on the impact to Fedora users

For reference, you can query Bugzilla for bugs tagged CommonBugs:

  • CommonBugs? (bugs with CommonBugs keyword, but do not yet have a link to this page)
  • CommonBugs+(bugs with CommonBugs keyword and contain a link to this page)
