Description John Sefler 2016-03-08 19:06:38 UTC 
Description of problem:
This issue is a side affect of the RHEL7.2 work done on subscription-manager-initial-setup-addon-1.15 which was then back ported to subscription-manager-firstboot-1.16 for RHEL6.8.

See the attached screenshot

When traversing through firstboot, the "Choose Service" panel contains a "Proxy Setup" tool which is not owned by subscription-manager, but the information is passed onto the next panel, "Subscription Management Registration", which is owned by subscription-manager-firstboot where there is another "Proxy Configuration" tool that is effectively redundant.

The problem is that when a user starts using the Back and Forward buttons, the data in the proxy dialog text fields remain sticky, and the data is not designed to be transferred Backward.

The solution is to restore the same behavior from RHEL6.7 by removing the "Configure Proxy" box on the Subscription Management Registration panel.



Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
[root@jsefler-6 ~]# rpm -q subscription-manager-firstboot
subscription-manager-firstboot-1.16.8-4.el6.x86_64


How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
1. firstboot
2.
3.

Actual results:
two tools to configure a proxy


Expected results:
one proxy setup tool (prior to the Subscription Management Registration panel).
