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 Scott Mayhew 2016-11-17 21:46:07 UTC 
Description of problem:
rpcbind can fail to start after updating to the 7.3 rpcbind package from an earlier version, if the libtirpc package is not updated as well.  This can be triggered via 'yum update --security' for example.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
rpcbind-0.2.0-38.el7

How reproducible:
Easy.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install RHEL 7 system that is pre-7.3, including rpcbind
2. yum update --security

Actual results:

[root@localhost ~]# systemctl status rpcbind
● rpcbind.service - RPC bind service
   Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/rpcbind.service; indirect; vendor preset: enabled)
   Active: failed (Result: exit-code) since Thu 2016-11-17 16:28:39 EST; 2min 4s ago
 Main PID: 5929 (code=exited, status=0/SUCCESS)

Nov 17 16:28:39 localhost.localdomain systemd[1]: Starting RPC bind service...

Expected results:

[root@localhost ~]# systemctl status rpcbind
● rpcbind.service - RPC bind service
   Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/rpcbind.service; indirect; vendor preset: enabled)
   Active: active (running) since Thu 2016-11-17 16:42:42 EST; 3s ago

Additional info:

Updating the libtirpc package fixes this issue.  This is a regression caused by https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1358890.  A 'Requires' tag should have been added to the rpcbind.spec file specifying the version that added libtirpc_set_debug():

Requires: libtirpc >= 0.2.4-0.7

Instead, the rpcbind.spec file has no 'Requires' tag for libtirpc at all.
