Description François Cami 2016-09-28 15:26:08 UTC
Description of problem:
EPEL ships hiera-1.3.4-5.el7.noarch.rpm, we ship a lower version of hiera.
So a system registered to a CV containing EPEL will get an unsupported community build of hiera instead of ours.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
hiera-1.3.1-2.el7sat

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a CV with EPEL7 + RHEL7 + Satellite 6.2 Tools
2. Register a system to that CV (with Puppet)
3. Run yum update

Actual results:
hiera gets updated with EPEL's version

Expected results:
hiera comes from Satellite Tools

Additional info:
This can be solved in at least two ways:
* ensure we always ship components like hiera with a higher E-NVR version than what EPEL ships (not convenient?)
* add yum-priorities centralized configuration to Satellite

Comment 1 Bryan Kearney 2017-10-05 17:26:05 UTC
Thank you for your interest in Satellite 6. We have evaluated this request, and we do not expect this to be implemented in product in the forseeable future. We are therefore closing this out as WONTFIX. If you have any concerns about this, please feel free to contact Rich Jerrido or Bryan Kearney. Thank you.
