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:
resource-agents-3.9.2-21.el6_4.8.x86_64 alters the path for the heartbeat binary to /usr/libexec/heartbeat even though the actual path for 64bit heartbeat is /usr/lib64/heartbeat. This makes the heartbeat init script exit without warning. 

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
resource-agents-3.9.2-21.el6_4.8.x86_64

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install heartbeat from EPEL.
2. Update all packages to latest.
3. run 'service heartbeat start' - the script just exits.

Actual results:
heartbeat does not get started.

Expected results:
heartbeat starts

Additional info:
This seems to be the cause:
-: ${HA_BIN:=/usr/lib64/heartbeat}
+: ${HA_BIN:=/usr/libexec/heartbeat}

This is not a resource-agent package problem.  The heartbeat package should not be tightly coupled to the resource-agents in this way.

OK.

Should I post the bug against EPEL then?
