Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.

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:
The latest version of dbus changed location of binary dbus-send from /bin/dbus-send to /usr/bin/dbus-send  

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
sh$ rpm -q dbus
dbus-1.10.24-1.el7.x86_64

How reproducible:
Deterministic

Steps to Reproduce:
1. rpm -q --list --provides dbus | grep send

Actual results:
sh# rpm -qa | grep dbus
python-slip-dbus-0.4.0-3.el7.noarch
dbus-glib-0.100-7.el7.x86_64
dbus-libs-1.10.24-1.el7.x86_64
dbus-1.10.24-1.el7.x86_64
dbus-python-1.1.1-9.el7.x86_64

sh# rpm -q --list --provides dbus-1.10.24-1.el7 | grep send
/usr/bin/dbus-send
/usr/share/man/man1/dbus-send.1.gz

Expected results:
# Similar output as in el7.4
sh# rpm -qa | grep dbus
python-slip-dbus-0.4.0-3.el7.noarch
dbus-glib-0.100-7.el7.x86_64
dbus-libs-1.6.12-17.el7.x86_64
dbus-1.6.12-17.el7.x86_64
dbus-python-1.1.1-9.el7.x86_64

sh# rpm -q --list --provides dbus-1.6.12-17.el7 | grep send
/bin/dbus-send
/usr/share/man/man1/dbus-send.1.gz

If you think that it cannot cause any problem with yum and it is bug in anaconda then fell free to move to different component.

IMHO much simpler would be to add "Provides: /bin/dbus-send" into dbus package
rather then fixing all other packages in rhel-7.Y. We might afford such change in major release but not in minor releases.

Fair enough -  it's quite easy after all, so dbus-1.10.24-3.el7 has that Provides.
