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 John Brier 2018-03-28 23:23:37 UTC
Description of problem:

In the man page for 'subscription-manager' it says the following:


   REPOS OPTIONS
       The repos command lists all of the repositories that are available to a system. This command is
       only used for organizations which have a locally-hosted content service of some kind, like Sub‐
       scription  Asset  Manager.  With  Red  Hat's  hosted content service, there is only one central
       repository.

I have been told that repos is not special, i.e. it doesn't require a "locally-hosted content service." In fact, I have seen it work with RHSM.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

subscription-manager-1.20.10-1.el7.x86_64

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. man subscription-manager
2. /repos options
3. enter

Actual results:
text is wrong

Expected results:
text is not wrong

Additional info:

The man page is laid out well and very well written, but this wrong.

Thank you for opening the bug , we have moved this bug to RHEL 8 ( Bug 1920017 ) for addressing and due to the low severity nature of the bug we wont be able to ship a man page update in RHEL 7.

thanks,
Rehana
