Description of problem: Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: 5/5 Prerequisites: Rhel7 with following subscription-manager rpm subscription-manager-gui-1.10.7-1.git.0.15d737b.el7.x86_64 subscription-manager-firstboot-1.10.7-1.git.0.15d737b.el7.x86_64 subscription-manager-migration-1.10.7-1.git.0.15d737b.el7.x86_64 subscription-manager-migration-data-2.0.5-1.git.0.3be2ad4.el7.noarch subscription-manager-1.10.7-1.git.0.15d737b.el7.x86_64 Steps to Repro : Register client to candlepin and subscribe instance based subscription Override non existing repo using following command [root@localhost ~]# subscription-manager repo-override --repo=tesssssssssss –add=test1:123 Expected Result : Message should display like invalid repoid , --repo=tesssssssssss invalid Parameters –add=test1:123 Actual result : command successfully executed , No message displayed on console [root@localhost yum.repos.d]# subscription-manager repo-override --repo=tesssssssssss --add=test1:123 [root@localhost yum.repos.d]# echo $? 0 [root@localhost yum.repos.d]#
In my opinion, adding a repo override to a currently non-existant repo is acceptable and will persist the life of the consumer applying to subscriptions as they are attached and removed. I believe this is the behavior we want. However, it can also be misleading to a user that has inadvertantly mistyped a repo name. I would suggest adding an informative feedback similar to the following mock-up... # subscription-manager repo-override --repo=foo --repo=bar --add=test1:123 Repository 'foo' does not currently exist, but the override has been added. Repository 'bar' does not currently exist, but the override has been added. # echo $? 0
I like this idea. I'll work on a fix for this.
