Red Hat Satellite engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on Satellite 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 "Satellite project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs will be migrated starting at the end of May. 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 "Satellite project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/SAT-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:

Using katello 1.4 kickstarting a fedora 19 machine results in package groups being skipped completely from the kickstart file %packages section.  

'it's complaining about it being in the "old style" yum groups instead of "new style" yum groups'

More investigation needs to be done to determine where the problem lies

Currently a work around is in the %post section add:


# Convert groups from old style to new style!
yum groups mark convert
 
# Make sure that the group install worked correctly... for the desktop
yum -t -y -e 0 groupinstall core basic-desktop gnome-desktop cinnamon-desktop
 


listing all the groups that you wanted to install in %packages

Moving to Sat6 to be tracked there. Upstream bugs are moving to redmine.

Since this issue was entered in Red Hat Bugzilla, the release flag has been
set to ? to ensure that it is properly evaluated for this release.

This relates to an old Fedora which is no longer supported. If you are seeing this on a newer Fedora, please feel free to re-open.
