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.

Red Hat Product Errata RHBA-2016:0951 0 normal SHIPPED_LIVE initscripts bug fix and enhancement update 2016-05-10 22:56:20 UTC

Description Satoru SATOH 2014-04-07 06:11:09 UTC
Description of problem:

AFAIK, there are no any RPMs own /etc/sysctl.d/ and
only libvirt provides /etc/sysctl.d/* in RHEL 6 [1].
That is, users have to make /etc/sysctl.d/ by themselves
if they do not install libvirt.

Instead, how about making initscripts an owner of /etc/sysctl.d/,
or arranging /etc/sysctl.d/00-dummy.conf or something and making
initscripts owning it [2] ?

[1] I confirmed this with RHEL 6.5 by "yum provides /etc/sysctl.d",
"yum provides '/etc/sysctl.d/*'" and "rpm -qf /etc/sysctl.d".

[2] The later one looks a common way.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
initscripts-9.03.40-2.el6.x86_64

Comment 2 Satoru SATOH 2015-06-15 02:37:48 UTC
FYI. /etc/sysctl.d/ is provided by systemd in RHEL 7.

Comment 6 Leos Pol 2016-02-16 11:19:14 UTC
# rpm -qf /etc/sysctl.d
initscripts-9.03.50-1.el6.x86_64
