@ymankad all the package removal we did was only for rhel-9, right? Can you double check if there's anything weird about those for rhel-8.6?

Yes, while the removal of the python dependencies were only from RHEL-9,
one related action as part of the removal process was that these packages
were deprecated in RHEL-8. So, they would not get updated after RHEL-8.5.

And I don't see the python38-jsonschema in RHEL-8.5, or 8.6.

Moving the needinfo to Tomas Orsava, Python PO, who might be able to
provide better insight into what happened to the python38-pyrsistent,
and -jsconschema packages in 8.5 and 8.6.

I believe this is NOTABUG as far as RHEL is concerned. The package appears to have originated from a Satellite build, not RHEL, so I am redirecting the BZ to the Satellite team for their analysis.

If the reporter wishes to return this back to RHEL, I would ask for additional information, like: why are you attempting to install this package? What are you trying to do with it once it is installed? It appears that RHEL no longer provides the package

I changed the Pool ID to one of the ones in satellite. It's probably wrong, but better than sst_virtualization_cloud, which was even more wrong.

Patrick,

Can you take a quick look to confirm if this bugzilla should be on Satellite?  Thanks!

Reviewing the comments on this bug, it's unclear what repo python-jsonschema is being pulled in from.  If the initial comment is to be believed, it appears it has been downloaded and being installed directly:

    # yum install ./python38-jsonschema-3.2.0-7.el8pc.noarch.rpm

notice the './' part of the above command.

This package is shipped in repos for ansible automation platform and for satellite, and it does have other python dependencies that will need to be installed alongside.

Closing as not-a-bug based on initial content, feel free to re-open with more specific information if my assumptions on install method are incorrect.
