Runs afoul of the Installing, removing and updating software base criteria. The container image is release blocking.
FinalBlocker +1
See this:
[edited] This seems to only reproduce in buildah now. In the default podman shell the locale is set to C.UTF-8
I tested in toolbox (which is the only blocking container) and I don't see any dnf crash there.
At this moment probably FinalBlocker -1
Discussed in a blocker review meeting [1] on 2026-03-09. The outcome was:
!agreed 2443774 - RejectedBlocker (Final) - this is potentially a blocker per various criteria related to package installation, but we agreed we can't think of or demonstrate any common or criteria-covered situation where the system locale is likely to be C or POSIX

AGREED RejectedFinalBlocker

FinalFE +1
AGREED AcceptedFinalFreezeException
Discussed at the 2026-03-16 (blocker / freeze exception) review meeting:
this is accepted as an FE issue as it could affect folks on first update and require a workaround, but we will evaluate any proposed fix during freeze for its risk of affecting more important paths and only take a sufficiently safe fix.
