Description of problem: With the latest version of katello-agent (katello-agent-3.5.0-2) the required version of gofer is only >= 2.12.1 When katello-agent is updated to the latest version, no gofer package was updated. It leads to a situation where, when tried to push updates/erratas via Satelite, it fails. One has to update the gofer package manually and restart the service then it works fine. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 6.5.0 How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1. Use Satellite upgraded from 6.4 to 6.5 2. Update katello-agent # yum update katello-agent 3. katello-agent will get update to latest => katello-agent-3.5.0.2 $ cat yum_list_installed | grep -i katello katello-agent.noarch 3.5.0-2.el7sat @rhel-7-server-satellite-tools-6.5-rpms katello-host-tools.noarch 3.5.0-2.el7sat @rhel-7-server-satellite-tools-6.5-rpms $ cat yum_list_installed | grep -i gofer gofer.noarch 2.12.3-1.el7 @rhel-7-server-satellite-tools-6.4-rpms python-gofer.noarch 2.12.3-1.el7 @rhel-7-server-satellite-tools-6.4-rpms python-gofer-proton.noarch 2.12.3-1.el7 @rhel-7-server-satellite-tools-6.4-rpms # rpm -qR katello-agent /bin/sh /bin/sh config(katello-agent) = 3.5.0-2.el7sat gofer >= 2.12.1 <------------------- Issue katello-host-tools = 3.5.0-2.el7sat python(abi) = 2.7 python-gofer-proton >= 2.5 rpmlib(CompressedFileNames) <= 3.0.4-1 rpmlib(FileDigests) <= 4.6.0-1 rpmlib(PartialHardlinkSets) <= 4.0.4-1 rpmlib(PayloadFilesHavePrefix) <= 4.0-1 subscription-manager rpmlib(PayloadIsXz) <= 5.2-1 gofer package and its dependencies will not be updated. Actual results: katello-agent package is updated and gofer package is not updated. This can most likely happen on systems registered on a Satellite that's been updated from 6.4 to 6.5 After publishing the new Satellite Tools for 6.5, If customer only run "yum update katello" on the client, gofer will not be updated if it's higher than version 2.12.1 Expected results: Gofer package should be updated along with katello-agent. Additional info:
Verified on Sat 6.6 Snap 17. I went through the whole upgrade route for katello-agent starting with Sat 6.4 Tools, upgraded to Sat 6.5 Tools and finally Sat 6.6 Tools, using "yum update katello-agent" only. Sat 6.6 katello-agent pulls in current gofer-2.12.5-5 from Sat 6.6 Tools repo, as it should.
