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.

Comment 4 Pino Toscano 2018-07-03 06:27:55 UTC 
It looks correct to me, why do you think it is wrong?
Comment 5 mxie@redhat.com 2018-07-03 06:54:01 UTC 
virt-p2v actual version is 1.38.2-2, but version shows 1.38.2 rhel7,release 6, it should be 1.38.2 rhel7,release 2

> version shows 1.38.2 rhel7,release6

The virt-p2v application is built from the same source of libguestfs, so its version is the same as libguestfs.

> virt-p2v actual version is 1.38.2-2

This is the version of the virt-p2v ISO (i.e. the live system that runs the virt-p2v application), and the wrapper RPM that contains the ISO.

The virt-p2v ISO is usually rebuilt when either:
a) libguestfs is rebased to a new version
b) a new build of libguestfs has changes in the virt-p2v application
c) there are important changes in the base OS to include
so that is why the versions of libguestfs and the virt-p2v ISO are not always in sync. OTOH it should not be an issue, since the version of the virt-p2v application is what usually matters.
Comment 7 mxie@redhat.com 2018-07-03 07:21:13 UTC 
   But virt-p2v client vrersion was always consistent with virt-p2v iso version before, such as virt-p2v-1.38.2-1.el7.iso, the p2v version shows 1.38.2 rhel7,release 1 in client, pls refer to screenshot"virt-p2v-1.38.2-1",
   And I think if virt-p2v client version is not consistent with virt-p2v iso version will confuse customer

So far that happened by chance, i.e. the versions of the virt-p2v application and the virt-p2v ISO were never in sync.
