Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because
the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.
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.
Description of problem:
rpm show that both oddjob and oddjob-mkhomedir are installed:
# rpm -qa |grep -i oddjob
oddjob-0.34.7-4.el9.x86_64
oddjob-mkhomedir-0.34.7-4.el9.x86_64
but pkcon shows:
# pkcon search name oddjob
Searching by name [=========================]
Finished [=========================]
Available oddjob-0.34.7-4.el9.x86_64 (rhel-AppStream) A D-Bus service which runs odd jobs on behalf of client applications
Installed oddjob-mkhomedir-0.34.7-4.el9.x86_64 (installed:AppStream) An oddjob helper which creates and populates home directories
We found this while testing the realmd feature to install missing components with the help of PackageKit. Since the 'oddjob' package is reported as not installed realmd asks PackageKit to install it but this fails since the package is already installed:
