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 Djordje Todorovic 2017-08-25 10:28:58 UTC 
Description of problem:

As requested here:
https://projects.engineering.redhat.com/browse/RCM-13433 and
https://projects.engineering.redhat.com/browse/RCM-14544


'libguestfs' in RHEL-7.4 has a new 'virt-p2v-maker' subpackage. It is currently present in 7Client-optional, while it should ideally be in the same channel of virt-v2v.


Rationale:
----------
1. The content of the subpackage was previously in virt-v2v
2. We want to support users/customers to generate their own p2v ISO, which is needed in case they must add custom configuration/utilities/drivers to the live p2v system
3. The RPMs, both the src.rpm and the wrapper rpm containing the ISO, appear in all the channels, e.g. 7Client, 7Client-optional, etc. In  RHEL 7.3, the virt-p2v rpms were only in 7Server.


virt-p2v subpackages of libguestfs is currently present on several variants:

virt-p2v-maker-1.36.3-6.el7_4.2.x86_64.rpm  Client-optional       x86_64
virt-p2v-maker-1.36.3-6.el7_4.2.x86_64.rpm  Server-optional       x86_64
virt-p2v-maker-1.36.3-6.el7_4.2.x86_64.rpm  Workstation-optional  x86_64


This is a request to have them only present on 7Server. We need to respect the  3-ack process since we can break updates if somebody had installed this on e.g. Workstation.
