Red Hat Satellite engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on Satellite 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 "Satellite project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs will be migrated starting at the end of May. 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 "Satellite project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/SAT-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 Lukas Pramuk 2018-02-02 13:48:13 UTC 
Description of problem:
Non-fatal POSTIN scriptlet failure in rpm package foreman-bootloaders-redhat-tftpboot

There is semantic error in /usr/bin/foreman-generate-bootloaders in check_pkg() function (Line 20):

check_pkg() {
  rpm -q "$1" &>/dev/null || echo "Please install: yum -y install $1" && exit 1
}

cmd1 || cmd2 && cmd3 

So, if cmd1 succeeds then cmd2 is skipped (OK) but cmd3 is still performed (BUG)
It should be like this: 

cmd1 || ( cmd2 && cmd3 ) 


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
satellite-6.3.0-23.0.el7sat.noarch (Snap 34)
foreman-bootloaders-redhat-201801241201-1.el7sat.noarch

How reproducible:
always


Steps to Reproduce:
1. # yum upgrade
...
warning: %post(foreman-bootloaders-redhat-tftpboot-201801241201-1.el7sat.noarch) scriptlet failed, exit status 1
Non-fatal POSTIN scriptlet failure in rpm package foreman-bootloaders-redhat-tftpboot-201801241201-1.el7sat.noarch

2. # rpm -q --scripts foreman-bootloaders-redhat-tftpboot
postinstall scriptlet (using /bin/sh):
/usr/bin/foreman-generate-bootloaders x86_64 noinstall

3.
# /usr/bin/foreman-generate-bootloaders x86_64 noinstall
# echo $?
1

Actual results:
rpm scriptlet exits with 1 though there is no error at all

Expected results:
rpm scriptlet exits with 0 as there is no error at all
Comment 2 Lukas Pramuk 2018-05-22 14:42:59 UTC 
VERIFIED.

@satellite-6.4.0-7.beta.el7sat.noarch
foreman-bootloaders-redhat-tftpboot-201801241201-3.el7sat.noarch

# rpm -q --scripts foreman-bootloaders-redhat-tftpboot
postinstall scriptlet (using /bin/sh):
/usr/bin/foreman-generate-bootloaders x86_64 noinstall

# /usr/bin/foreman-generate-bootloaders x86_64 noinstall

# echo $?
0

>>> foreman-bootloaders-redhat-tftpboot postinstall scriptlet causes no error

check_pkg() {
  rpm -q "$1" &>/dev/null || ( echo "Please install: yum -y install $1" >/dev/stderr && exit 1 )
}

^ correct semantics
