Description of problem: After upgrading from RHEL 6 to 7, results.html says to run /root/preupgrade/noauto_postupgrade.d/install_rpmlist.sh /root/preupgrade/kickstart/RHRHEL7rpmlist_replaced-notbase The install_rpmlist.sh does not read the formatting correctly and no packages are installed or replaced. (This script is meant to install packages that did not get updated during the update) Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): redhat-upgrade-tool preupgrade-assistant preupgrade-assistant-ui preupgrade-assistant-el6toel7 How reproducible: Everytime Steps to Reproduce: 1. Upgrade RHEL 6 to RHEL 7 https://access.redhat.com/solutions/637583 2. Once booted into RHEL 7, enable the optional repository 3. run "/root/preupgrade/noauto_postupgrade.d/install_rpmlist.sh /root/preupgrade/kickstart/RHRHEL7rpmlist_replaced-notbase" Actual results: This: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ # old-package|required-by-pkgs|replaced-by-pkgs|repo-id db4-cxx||libdb-cxx|rhel-7-server-optional-rpms ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Is translated into: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ # db4-cxx||libdb-cxx|rhel-7-server-optional-rpms ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Which yum fails with no package "#" exists no package "db4-cxx||libdb-cxx|rhel-7-server-optional-rpms" exists Expected results: The script would translate correctly and install libdb-cxx Additional info: The script originally says: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ pkgs="$(echo $line | cut -d " " -f1 | tr "," " ")" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ If I change the delimiter to "|" and cut the third field, the update will continue. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ pkgs="$(echo $line | cut -d "|" -f3 | tr "," " ")" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The only thing I couldn't think of was how to cut off the first line (its just informational and yum has "can't install "new_pkg"" which is just the column title
Thanks for report. I thought that I fix it in the past. Obviously I have forgotten to fix it. Probably it will be fixed in next cycle (in date of RHEL 7.4 GA).

I will post patch here when I will look at it. In addition, the script is really slow, when you have a lot of packages. So I want to improve it much more. The fix is not urgent, because user don't have to use this script, but can install all packages manually - as it was only possible way before and with own parsing, it can be much faster now.
