Description Marek Haicman 2017-05-02 20:11:46 UTC
Description of problem:
When performing oscap-chroot on not complete chrooted filesystem, there are big walls of errors. I consider it usability issue on par with tracebacks - we don't want user to read tracebacks.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
openscap-1.2.14-1.el7.x86_64

How reproducible:
reliably

Steps to Reproduce:
1. oscap-chroot ./empty_dir oval eval /usr/share/xml/scap/ssg/content/ssg-rhel7-oval.xml
2.
3.

Actual results:
lots of errors, some blocks are more than 100 lines long

Expected results:
warning or error is compact, and useful to the user

Additional info:
