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.

xxdiff test suite
Description of problem: xxdiff appears to have performance issues when using the Qt libraries from RHEL 7.6 (as opposed to 7.4).
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
qt-4.8.7-2.el7
How reproducible: Consistently.
Steps to Reproduce:
Download the attached test package and follow the instructions in the README.
Actual results: xxdiff slows down by an order of magnitude when linked against the Qt 4.8.7 libraries.
Expected results: xxdiff shows no performance slowdown when linked against the Qt 4.8.7 libraries.
Additional info:
The libraries that came with the test package are the Qt 4.8.5 libraries that were shipped with RHEL 7.4, so it seems there's a performance regression.
