Description Alois Mahdal 2016-05-04 04:34:19 UTC
Description of problem
======================

`--list-contents-set` is useless: uf more than one upgrade path is present,
it will not list anything (it will only *say* there are more).

    # preupg --list-contents-set
    Preupgrade assistant detects more then 1 set of contents in directory/usr/share/preupgrade. If you would like to use this tool, you have to specify correct upgrade path parameter like -s RHEL6_7.
    #


Version-Release number of selected component
============================================

preupgrade-assistant-2.1.6-5.el6


How reproducible
================

Always


Steps to Reproduce
==================

 1. Put an upgrade path in /usr/preupg/ (eg. make copy of existing one,)
    but mind that naming must be `FOO<M>_<N>`
 2. `preupg --list-contents-set`
 3. observe list of upgrade paths


Actual results
==============

There is none.


Expected results
================

There should be two upgrade paths.

Thanks for clarification.

As of preupgrade-assistant-2.1.9-5.el6:

    # cp -r /usr/share/preupgrade/RHEL6_{7,8}
    # preupg --list-contents-set
    RHEL6_7
    RHEL6_8
    #

IOW, issue is fixed.
