Bug 1411586

An update of qemu-system-x86 is needed as this is too old (apparently) to support the needed -smbios type=2 flag.  The error that is thrown when this is attempted is the following

qemu-system-x86_64: -smbios type=2: Don't know how to build fields for SMBIOS type 2

This appears to be a catch-all for any smbios that is not known. Here's a potentially relevant patch discussion:

https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2014-03/msg01548.html

qemu-system-x86_64 2.3 has been supported by Fedora versions no later than Fedora 22.  The latest Fedora (25) supports qemu 2.7 and rawhide support qemu-system 2.8.

For some reason the koji build for this was deleted, and the package is no longer available, despite showing as stable in bodhi.

Can you build it again an do another bodhi update?

Is there any update? I have been watching this bug for awhile, due to challenges I have faced with managing Windows machines via Kerberos and HTTPS (using company-issued certificates) with Ansible on RHEL7.  Some of the Python2 modules required for Ansible have a dependency on certifi, but the one that gets downloaded with pip is hard-coded to use its own certificate bundle, and cannot be pointed to the system's certificate store.

The Fedora python-certifi package (I have python2-certifi-2016.9.26-2.el7.noarch - previously downloaded from rhel-7-server-ose-3.6-rpms) used to meet my needs perfectly, but I now need a newer version due to Python module dependencies.   It would be great to be able to get this from the regular Red Hat or EPEL repos.

I will update the package to certifi 2018.10.15.

Just to be clear you need the bumped version avaiable in EPEL7 repos or the certificates provided upstream? this package point to the system certificates in:

/etc/pki/ca-trust/extracted/pem/tls-ca-bundle.pem

As you can see in this patch:

https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/python-certifi/blob/master/f/certifi-2016.9.26-remove-bundle-cert.patch

Do you have any issued with this?
