Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because
the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.
RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description of problem:
Package opendnssec ships /etc/tmpfiles.d/opendnssec.conf.
Man page tmpfiles.d(5) says:
Files in /etc/tmpfiles.d override files with the same name in
/usr/lib/tmpfiles.d and /run/tmpfiles.d. Files in /run/tmpfiles.d
override files with the same name in /usr/lib/tmpfiles.d. Packages
should install their configuration files in /usr/lib/tmpfiles.d. Files
in /etc/tmpfiles.d are reserved for the local administrator, who may
use this logic to override the configuration files installed by vendor
packages.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
opendnssec-1.4.7-3.el7.x86_64
How reproducible:
Deterministic.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. yum install -y opendnssec
2. rpm -qf /etc/tmpfiles.d/opendnssec.conf
Actual results:
opendnssec-1.4.7-3.el7.x86_64
Expected results:
error: file /etc/tmpfiles.d/opendnssec.conf: No such file or directory
Additional info:
Shipping package content for /etc/tmpfiles.d complicates containerization when it's important to distinguish software and configuration/data, and when rpm upgrade mechanism for config files is not available because no rpm upgrade happen there.
