Can we have a Github label (e.g. regression-25.11) for issues that are likely dealbreakers for people upgrading to a specific release, so that people can more easily check if the upgrade will break their system?
For example for the 25.11 release, I found the following regressions that would likely break my workflow and waste time:
- nixos/syncthing: 25.11 database migration race condition · Issue #465573 · NixOS/nixpkgs · GitHub
- nautilus: 100% cpu usage after upgrading to 49.1 from 25.11-beta · Issue #466548 · NixOS/nixpkgs · GitHub
- gnupg: agent broken regression from 25.05 to 25.11 · Issue #465993 · NixOS/nixpkgs · GitHub
Future release upgrade instructions could then also recommend to check that label before upgrading.
Note we already have label 0.kind: regression but that does not allow users to filter for the release they are looking to upgrade to.
