Description Robert Scheck 2021-03-10 21:13:18 UTC

Description of problem:
This is actually the same request like bug #1653119, but for RHEL 9 rather for RHEL 8.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
nmap-7.80-10.fc35

Actual results:
/usr/bin/nc is not a symlink using alternatives(1)

Expected results:
Merge of https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/nmap/pull-request/5 into RHEL 9 (already merged into 7.80-11.fc35) in case the RHEL 9 branching already happened (it's unclear to me whether RHEL 9 was already branched and GSS/CEE doesn't know this either).

Additional info:
Cross-filed case 02886451 at the Red Hat customer portal.

Next major verion of RHEL is not released yet. As you can see there's no RHEL 9 component in bugzilla available for everyone.

Just wait for public release and file regression bug with proper component if the issue is not fixed there. I hope It will be.
Thank you for the heads up but I have to close this bug as notabug because it's filled against wrong component.
