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.

Red Hat Product Errata RHBA-2016:2173 0 normal SHIPPED_LIVE createrepo bug fix and enhancement update 2016-11-03 13:16:27 UTC

Description Stanislav Zidek 2015-11-26 12:02:59 UTC
Description of problem:
I am not sure if this is a intentional, but man page of modifyrepo does not contain the OPTIONS section and therefore does not list any parameters it supports. When comparing to RHEL-6, the man page is exactly the same + all the options listed in RHEL-6.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
createrepo-0.9.9-23.el7.noarch

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. man modifyrepo

Actual results:
NAME
       modifyrepo - Modify a repomd (xml-rpm-metadata) repository


SYNOPSIS
       modifyrepo [options] <input metadata> <output repodata>

DESCRIPTION
       modifyrepo is a program that allows you to insert arbitrary metadata into a repomd (xml-based rpm metadata)
       repository.


EXAMPLES
       $ modifyrepo --mdtype=newmd metadata.xml /repository/repodata
       Wrote: /repository/repodata/metadata.xml.gz
                  type = newmd
              location = repodata/metadata.xml.gz
              checksum = 1d7ee93db2964e7f85e07ec19b3204591da1050c
             timestamp = 1196716296.0
         open-checksum = 824d936dc7dfff029379797b311af0cc66af4115
       Wrote: /repository/repodata/repomd.xml
