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 of problem:
Createrepo gives the error if there is no new package added in the repository.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
# cat /etc/redhat-release
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 6.9 (Santiago)
# rpm -qa|grep createrepo
createrepo-0.9.9-26.el6.noarch
How reproducible:
100%
Steps to Reproduce:
1. create a repository with createrepo
# createrepo /repo
2. Update the repository without adding any new package :
# createrepo -C --update /repo
Actual results:
------------------
# createrepo -C --update /repo
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/share/createrepo/genpkgmetadata.py", line 307, in <module>
main(sys.argv[1:])
File "/usr/share/createrepo/genpkgmetadata.py", line 296, in main
mdgen.cleanup()
File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/createrepo/__init__.py", line 1208, in cleanup
self._cleanup_update_tmp_dir()
File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/createrepo/__init__.py", line 1213, in _cleanup_update_tmp_dir
self.oldData.cleanup()
AttributeError: MetaDataGenerator instance has no attribute 'oldData'
-----------------
Expected results:
Should not give any error.
Additional info:
Customer reported also that Lines 294-296 of /usr/share/createrepo/genpkgmetadata.py should be deleted. The traceback happens because self.oldData is not initialised when the code exits in line 261 when there are no new packages.
