This will be picked up automatically by the next virtio-win RPM/ISO build, the upstream scripts already have the change. Fixed in virtio-win-1.8.0-1.el7 Hi There is still no qemupciserial.cat file in /iso/qemupciserial . Thanks wyu This isn't blocker worthy, doesn't seem to be impacting anyone really, so dropping that flag and moving to proposing for rhel 7.4 yash, I know there's been some discussion about getting this driver signed so maybe you fixed this... is qemupciserial.cat on the rhel iso these days? Yes, the qemupciserial.cat file will be on the rhel iso for the 7.4 release. Back to MODIFIED Hi, After installing the virtio-win rpm package, qemupciserial.cat file are in iso. version: virtio-win-1.9.1-0.el7.noarch.rpm change status to verified.

We currently ship qemupciserial.inf on the virtio-win .iso, however there's also a qemupciserial.cat file which we _don't_ ship. It's unclear if that omission was intentional or just an oversight of the previous build system.
