Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Satellite-5.7.0-RHEL6-re20150108.2-x86_64 rhn-upgrade-5.7.0.25-1.el6sat.noarch How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Upgrade from 5.6.0@EmbPostgreSQL@RHEL6 to 5.7.0, no OS upgrade involved 2. Check content of backed-up rhn.conf: # cat /etc/sysconfig/rhn/backup-2015-01-30-08:49/etc/rhn/rhn.conf Actual results: # cat /etc/sysconfig/rhn/backup-2015-01-30-08:49/etc/rhn/rhn.conf db_backend = postgresql db_host = db_port = db_name = rhnschema db_user = rhnuser db_password = rhnpw Expected results: That file should much longer.
