Description Alois Mahdal 2016-08-31 21:30:15 UTC
Description of problem
======================

It's possible to generate assessment without upgrade path installed at /usr/share, but it's not possible to use --riskcheck to verify this assessment: preupg will complain that upgrade path is not installed and exit with status 20.


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

preupgrade-assistant-2.1.9-1.el6


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

Always


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

 1. Create a custom upgrade path
 2. Run preupg with this path (--contents parameter)
 3. Run preupg --riskcheck --verbose


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

Error is printed:

    There were no contents found in directory /usr/share/preupgrade. If you would like to use this tool, you have to install some

and exit status is 20.


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

No error


Additional info
===============

Note that --riskcheck (and other modes) documentation does not mention way to specify *which* result to check, so there's an underlying assumption that it's always the last one.
