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:
There is no on screen way to close the registergui dialog in subscription-manager-gui now since 'back' replaced 'cancel' and the dialog type means no wm 'x' close button.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
subscription-manager-1.15.9-13
How reproducible:
Steps to Reproduce:
Open 'Register' or 'Auto Attach' dialog.
Try to close it.
Actual results:
No obvious way (esc/alt-f4/wm right click->close still work)
Expected results:
A cancel button. We all love cancel buttons.
We should add 5 or 6 of them.
Don't do that. Just one please.
Proposing as a blocker for rhel-7.2.0 to reinstate the Cancel/Close button that is already familiar to users of subscription-manager-gui from the prior rhel-7.1.0 release.
All the subdialogs of the registration process now have a Close button on the far left. I tried registering a system and at each point clicked the Close button (even if there was a progress slider). At each point the Close button would close out of the Register dialog.
The actual registration was not prevented from occurring however. For example, after entering the username and password and clicking next, even though there is a progress slider while the system tries to register, if the user clicks Close at this point all it does is close the dialog. The user will see that the system actually does register (though it will not auto-attach).
However, this more closely reflects the definition of close. It does not cancel the registration process, nor does it bring the user back to a previous stage of the Registration process.
Attached are the various steps during registration where the Close button is visible. The register-with-close-after-user-pw.png shows what the user will see if at some point after entering the username and password and hitting next, on the following dialog the Close button is clicked. It shows that the system is actually registered.
