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 Tomas Orsava 2019-01-11 15:46:42 UTC

RPMDiff for the python3 component is reporting a problem with the `unversioned-python` man page in the platform-python RPM:


Manpage checker reported problems with /usr/share/man/man1/unversioned-python.1.gz on all architectures:
manpage with .gz suffix is not really gzipped; "man" may fail upon this file, and should be checked before waiving


The man page displays without issues, but it'd be better to gzip it.

Comment 2 Miro Hrončok 2019-04-24 13:04:41 UTC

Note that RPM gzips manpages automatically (but apparently it skips those that already have .gz suffix).

Comment 3 Tomas Orsava 2019-04-30 00:29:24 UTC

Patrik, are you already working on this? I'm already building a fix since I mistakenly thought *I* was assigned here :)

Comment 4 Tomas Orsava 2019-04-30 15:32:49 UTC

Since the build worked, I tested it and everything works, so here's a pull request:

Reviews welcome, Patrik.
