The following commit was too agressive....
Commit 6241cd1495b9feac2ed123f60405061b03815721 by Bryan Kearney
749332: Normalize the error messages for not being registered


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
[root@jsefler-onprem-5server ~]# rpm -q subscription-manager
subscription-manager-0.98.3-1.git.12.130b7ce.el5_7


How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
[root@jsefler-onprem-5server ~]# subscription-manager unregister
Error: You need to register this system by running `register` command.  Try register --help.
[root@jsefler-onprem-5server ~]# echo $?
255


Expected results:
[root@jsefler-onprem-62server ~]# subscription-manager unregister
This system is currently not registered.
[root@jsefler-onprem-62server ~]# echo $?
1

^^^ THESE HAVE BEEN THE EXPECTED RESULTS SINCE RHEL61

Comment 1 John Sefler 2011-11-22 21:24:09 UTC
I suggest undoing commit 6241cd1495b9feac2ed123f60405061b03815721 and then revisiting a different solution for bug 749332.

Comment 2 RHEL Program Management 2011-11-22 21:31:06 UTC
This bug report previously had all acks and release flags approved.
However since at least one of its acks has been changed, the
release flags have been reset to ? by the bugbot (pm-rhel).  The
ack needs to become approved before the release flags can become
approved again.

Comment 3 RHEL Program Management 2011-11-22 21:31:44 UTC
This bugzilla has Keywords: Regression or TestBlocker.

Since no regressions or test blockers are allowed between releases,
it is also being [proposed|marked] as a blocker for this release.

Please resolve ASAP.
