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 Pino Toscano 2017-12-08 14:11:45 UTC

Description of problem:
When using `virt-builder --cache-all-templates`, all the templates will be cached using the current architecture (so "x86_64" on a x86_64 machine, and so on), instead of using the proper architecture of each template.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. have a clean cache, so no ~/.cache/virt-builder
2. run `virt-builder --cache-all-templates`
3. a lot of patience
4. `ls -lh ~/.cache/virt-builder`

Actual results:
On a x86_64 machine, only one template for each distro/version is available, with a x86_64 filename.

Expected results:
Templates with different architectures are avilable -- compare the file listing with the output of `virt-builder --list`.

Additional info:
This does not affect templates already cached, but only what is downloaded when using --cache-all-templates.

Comment 2 Pino Toscano 2017-12-08 14:13:21 UTC

This was just fixed upstream with
https://github.com/libguestfs/libguestfs/commit/b34f457cf2dd66626abf743c90881bfe6532ec9b
which is in libguestfs >= 1.37.35.

Comment 3 Xianghua Chen 2017-12-12 05:32:37 UTC

Can reproduce it with:
libguestfs-1.36.3-6.el7_4.2.x86_64

Steps:
1. Have a clean cache:
# rm -rf ~/.cache/virt-builder
2. Cache all the templates:
# virt-builder --cache-all-templates
3. List all the caches:
# ls -lh ~/.cache/virt-builder
