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:
The current version of the subscription manager does not integrate with the surrounding desktop environment, namely, Gnome 3. 

Specifically, when the subscription manager requests your password, it shows an outdated password request form, rather than the standard Gnome dialog for promotion to root privileges. This breaks the flow, and especially on something that should have good visual cues, namely, the asking for a root password. 

Additionally, the overall GUI design does not integrate with existing Gnome practices, such as the App menu. The current menu bar should be replaced with an app menu in Gnome.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
RHEL 7 General Public Beta

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
See attachment

Actual results:
GUI prompts and windows behave as they did in RHEL 6, not matching the new behaviours which would be expected in Gnome 3

Expected results:
Subscription-manager-gui integrated with Gnome 3 styling and behaviour

This request was not resolved in time for the current release.
Red Hat invites you to ask your support representative to
propose this request, if still desired, for consideration in
the next release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.

Subman Gui has been implemented to the lowest common denominator [i.e. RHEL5]

Not sure how to change this except to write and maintain 3 separate code bases [RHEL5, RHEL6, RHEL7]

That is highly unlikely.
