1642551 – qemu-kvm-tools-rhev depends on libxkbcommon, but the RPM-level dependency is missing

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 Jason Joyce 2018-10-24 16:10:58 UTC

Description of problem:
During testing for OpenStack with qemu-kvm-tools-rhev, shared library testing revealed that a missing symbol was found for libxkbcommon. Checking the spec file, no explicit require is on libxkbcommon and rpm -i did not complain about missing dependencies.


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

qemu-kvm-tools-rhev-2.12.0-18.el7

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. rpm -i qemu-kvm-tools-rhev-2.12.0-18.el7
2. ldd /usr/bin/qemu-keymap

Actual results:
/usr/bin/qemu-keymap: libxkbcommon.so.0 => not found


Expected results:
/usr/bin/qemu-keymap: libxkbcommon.so.0 => (address)

Additional info:
'yum install libxkbcommon' will resolve the issue. However a 'yum install qemu-kvm-tools-rhev' does not pull in libxkbcommon.

Comment 2 Lon Hohberger 2018-10-24 16:12:38 UTC

The qemu-kvm-rhev.spec file does not have Autoreq: 0. Yet, oddly, the qemu-kvm-tools-rhev package does not pick up libxkbcommon despite utilizing it.

Comment 8 Miroslav Rezanina 2019-01-02 11:37:15 UTC

Fix included in qemu-kvm-rhev-2.12.0-21.el7

Comment 10 Chao Yang 2019-03-20 03:49:35 UTC

yum install qemu-kvm-tools-rhev-2.12.0-20.el7.x86_64 succeeded. However:
