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
======================

Use of "Non-RH signed" term when referring to "user's packages" may
be confusing.

In particular, "Non-RH signed" may be understood as referring to packages
that are signed, but not by Red Hat.   But in fact, we don't make any
distinction between packages signed by other authorities or not signed
at all; this term may create impression that there is such distinction.


Version-Release number of selected component
============================================

preupgrade-assistant-contents-0.6.41-1.el6


Additional info
===============

Other term that has been mentioned and is sometimes used in same context
is are "3rd party packages".  IMHO this is better, but still may sound a
bit awkward in some situations, in particular if the packages are owned
solely by customer: there is no 3rd party (just us and them).

My suggestion is to use very simple language here, such as "foreign" or
"non-RH" packages.  The important distinction here is that the packages
are not already "covered" by Red Hat so someone should take a look.

Closing this bugzilla as the component is under a maintenance mode in which the maintainers are going to fix only critical bugs. If you consider the bugzilla critical, feel free to reopen the bug with an explanation.
