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.

This should be in pykickstart-1.99.16 or later, which means 7.2 for sure.  What version of pykickstart are you using?

Comment 3 daniel.schindler 2015-10-03 08:58:57 UTC
pykickstart-1.99.43.17-1.0.2.el7.noarch on 7.1

Comment 4 Chris Lumens 2015-10-05 17:03:05 UTC
Hm, this is definitely weird.  Are you on Centos or using some other derivative of RHEL?  Did you rebuild pykickstart yourself?  I don't see that particular version in the build system here.  Also, can you please attach your kickstart file, scrubbed of any sensitive information?  Thanks.

We are using Oracle Linux. I will file a bug with Oracle. I thought they were using the same sources :)

Comment 6 daniel.schindler 2015-10-05 17:27:14 UTC
Bug has been filed at Oracle's Bugzilla: https://bugzilla.oracle.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=15154

I'd like to choose CLOSED NOTOURBUG, but that's not an option here.
