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 of problem:
Currently, when trying to install a package from a disabled application stream, yum reports that it cannot find a match. This may cause confusion and cause people to troubleshoot why they cannot install said package. The error message should be more targeted to provide the end user with a better understanding of why they cannot install the package.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
yum-4.0.9.2-5.el8.noarch
How reproducible:
Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. yum module disable mariadb
2. yum install mariadb -y
3.
Actual results:

The application stream that mariadb belongs to has been disabled on this host.
Additional info:
Thanks for the report. With modular filtering we have not a direct approach how to easily identify where and why package was excluded. Also your request could have multiple solutions therefore the error message cannot be very detailed. I am supposing to add following messages:
All matches were excluded by regular and modular filtering for argument: mariadb
All matches were excluded by regular filtering for argument: mariadb
All matches were excluded by modular filtering for argument: mariadb
Argument matched only with source RPMs: mariadb
Also I will create a chapter in man-pages where I will explain what is modular and regular filtering and how to investigate your problem.
Please could you verify that proposed solution is resolving the report?
