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 is starting to have a negative impact. Raising priority to HIGH.
Comment 4 Florian Festi 2016-06-09 08:44:01 UTC 
It looks like for some reason this is not really running as an update.

Can you please provide the complete yum output?
Comment 5 Florian Festi 2016-06-09 09:02:07 UTC 
OK, I think I got the problem:

rpm in it's great wisdom determines the "color" (the package being 32 or 64 bit) by the contents of the files.

rpm -qp --qf="[%{filenames} %{filecolors}\n]" ~/Downloads/qemu-kvm-tools-rhev-2.3.0-31.el7.x86_64.rpm
/usr/bin/kvm_stat 0
/usr/share/qemu-kvm/tscdeadline_latency.flat 1


rpm -qp --qf="[%{filenames} %{filecolors}\n]" ~/Downloads/qemu-kvm-tools-rhev-2.6.0-1.el7.x86_64.rpm
/usr/bin/ivshmem-client 2
/usr/bin/ivshmem-server 2
/usr/bin/kvm_stat 0
/usr/share/qemu-kvm/tscdeadline_latency.flat 1

So it thinks qemu-kvm-tools-rhev-2.3.0-31.el7.x86_64.rpm is color 1 (aka i32). So the new package (which is correctly detected as 64 bit due to the new 64 bit tools in it) does not update it.

Whether using the file content in this way is a good idea is probably not for discussion as we probably can't change that within the RHEL release. Can you try to just Obsolete the 2.3 Package from the new one, please?
Comment 6 Markus Armbruster 2016-06-09 16:45:20 UTC 
We should *not* package ivshmem-client and ivshmem-server!  These are example programs, not ready for production use and certainly not supportable in their current form.

Fix included in qemu-kvm-rhev-2.6.0-6.el7
