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.

Some packages deliver files under /usr/share/licenses:

# ls /usr/share/licenses
cryptsetup-libs-1.6.7              elfutils-0.163      openssh-6.6.1p1
device-mapper-event-libs-1.02.107  gmp-6.0.0           source-to-image-1.0.2
device-mapper-libs-1.02.107        krb5-libs-1.13.2    systemd-219
elfutils-libelf-0.163              lvm2-libs-2.02.130  systemtap-sdt-devel-2.8
elfutils-libs-0.163                lvm2-2.02.130

For example:

# rpm -qf /usr/share/licenses/lvm2-2.02.130/
lvm2-2.02.130-5.el7.x86_64

But the /usr/share/licenses is not provided by any package:

# LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8 rpm -qf /usr/share/licenses
file /usr/share/licenses is not owned by any package

The /usr/share/licenses should be owned by filesystem package.

Affected package: filesystem-3.2-20.el7.x86_64.

Hmmms, /usr/share/licenses is owned by filesystem since Jul 28 2014 (#1121416) - it was too late for RHEL 7.0. But as %license started to work in fedora 19, it make sense to do that change in RHEL 7 as well. Thanks for report.
