RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.
Is there a reason why the only solution is to remove the filesystem-afs subpackage? We will rely on that for CentOS 9 Stream packages in the kmod SIG and the Storage SIG, which provide AFS packages.
The Fedora package kafs-client relies on filesystem-afs, which we planned on just building in c9s.
/afs was approved for inclusion in any future FHS revision.
The filesystem-afs package provides the /afs directory which is the mount point used by AuriStorFS, OpenAFS and Linux in-tree afs (kafs) more than one of which can be installed on a rhel system at a time. The packaging of filesystem-afs avoids a variety of installation, upgrade and removal issues when AuriStorFS, OpenAFS or kafs packages are present.
Please revert this change.

Jeffrey, this change has nothing to do with -afs subpackage removal. It was not removed as the result of this change. It *never* existed in RHEL/C9S composes.
