Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.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 list returned was empty after executing the inspect-os command with libguestfs-1.38 on rhel7.5 host.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
libguestfs-1.38.0-1.el7.x86_64
qemu-kvm-1.5.3-156.el7.x86_64
kernel-3.10.0-862.el7.x86_64
libvirt-3.9.0-14.el7.x86_64

How reproducible:
100%


Steps:

1. On rhel7.5 host
#guestfish -a RHEL-Server-7.4-x86_64-latest.iso
><fs> run
><fs> list-filesystems
/dev/sda1: iso9660
/dev/sda2: vfat
><fs> inspect-os
><fs>

Actual results:
The returned result of inspect-os was empty.


Expected results:
The inspect-os command should be able to return the disk list.


Additional info:
The virt-inspector also cannot display the operating system info.

Yes we upstream removed the ability to inspect ISOs.  Unfortunately
I forgot to document this in the release notes, but the commit is:

  https://github.com/libguestfs/libguestfs/commit/65cfecb0f5344ec92d3f0d3c2ec0538b6b2726e2

This is a regression but not one we're likely to want to fix.  It's
much better if given an ISO to use the libosinfo command:

  osinfo-detect --type=media RHEL-Server-7.4-x86_64-latest.iso

Got it. Thanks rjones.
