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 Pavel Březina 2018-11-20 13:05:39 UTC 
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1645708 +++

Description of problem:

# authselect current
Profile ID: sssd
Enabled features: None
# authselect enable-feature blah
# authselect current
Profile ID: sssd
Enabled features:
- blah

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
authselect-1.0.1-2.fc29.x86_64

I get into trouble because to enable smartcard you enable "with-smartcard" instead of "with-smartcard".

Thank you.

Can you please try this scratch build?
https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=31016568

Calling `authselect select $profile unknown-feature` will result an
error and it will suggest the most relevant feature in case it is
only a typo.

$ authselect select sssd with-smartcards
[error] Unknown profile feature [with-smartcards], did you mean [with-smartcard]?
[error] Unable to activate profile [sssd] [22]: Invalid argument
Unable to activate profile [22]: Invalid argument

If feature is removed from profile, calling `authselect apply-changes`
will disable this feature and it will report it as a warning. This of course should not be common use case as profile should not drop a feature without a strong reason.

After manually removing with-sudo feature fortesting purpose:
$ sudo authselect apply-changes --warn 
[warn] Profile feature [with-sudo] is no longer supported, removing it...
Changes were successfully applied.
