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 Stephen Benjamin 2014-08-21 11:42:39 UTC 
The following would be nice functionality I think

Matching on something like: os =~ ^RedHat 6.* would greatly simplify doing stuff for different major versions of a specific distro.

lsbdistcodename is insufficient as all versions of CentOS report Final as codename.
operatingsystemmajrelease is insufficient as well, as that will also match Debian 6.x

Alternatively matching multiple facts using and/or logic would work as well.

osfamily = RedHat and (&&) operatingsystemmajrelease = 6

Comment 17 Bryan Kearney 2016-12-13 12:30:51 UTC 
With the current architecture of smart class parameters, this would require a major reworking of the matchers. We do not believe we will be addressing this in the next few releases, so I am closing this out. If you have additional business information around this bug, please feel free to re-open and provide that information.
