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 Alois Mahdal 2017-02-02 01:16:02 UTC 
Description of problem
======================

preupg --list-rules does not work at all if multiple upgrade paths are installed:

    [0 root@qeos-222 ~]# preupg --list-rules 
    Preupgrade Assistant detects more than one set of modules in the /usr/share/preupgrade directory.

    The list of sets of all available modules is: 
    RHEL5_7
    RHEL6_7
    If you would like to use the tool, specify the correct upgrade path mentioned above with a parameter -s.
    [0 root@qeos-222 ~]# preupg --list-rules -s RHEL6_7
    Preupgrade Assistant detects more than one set of modules in the /usr/share/preupgrade directory.

    The list of sets of all available modules is: 
    RHEL5_7
    RHEL6_7
    If you would like to use the tool, specify the correct upgrade path mentioned above with a parameter -s.
    [0 root@qeos-222 ~]# preupg -s RHEL6_7 --list-rules
    Preupgrade Assistant detects more than one set of modules in the /usr/share/preupgrade directory.

    The list of sets of all available modules is: 
    RHEL5_7

Version-Release number of selected component
============================================

preupgrade-assistant-2.1.10-6.el6.noarch
preupgrade-assistant-2.3.0-1.el6.noarch


How reproducible
================

Always


Steps to Reproduce
==================

 1. install multiple upgrade paths

 2. preupg --list-rules

 3. preupg --list-rules -s UPATH

    where UPATH is name of the upgrade path, eg. RHEL6_7


Actual results
==============

Either of them should work.  It's not sure if listing modules from
multiple paths should be supported.  If not, only the second one should
work.


Expected results
================

None of them works
