Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.
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.

Doc Text:
_bison_ rebased to version 3.0.4 The _bison_ package has been upgraded to upstream version 3.0.4, which provides a number of bug fixes and enhancements: * Endless diagnostics caused by caret errors have been fixed. * The "-Werror=CATEGORY" option has been added to treat specified warnings as errors. The warnings do not have to be explicitly activated using the "-W" option. * Many improvements in handling of precedence rules and useless rules. Additionally, the following changes breaking backward compatibility have been introduced: * The following features have been deprecated: `YYFAIL`, `YYLEX_PARAM`, `YYPARSE_PARAM`, `yystype`, `yyltype` * Missing semicolons at the end of actions are no longer automatically added. * To use Bison extensions with the *autoconf* utility versions 2.69 and earlier, pass the option "-Wno-yacc" to `(AM_)YFLAGS`.
