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.

This happens when yum performances any transactions (such as update, downgrade etc) not with every yum transaction (such as yum repolist etc).

Comment 8 Oliver Falk 2019-08-22 09:56:38 UTC 
The addition of the setting package_profile_on_trans seems to have been introduced from

    subscription-manager-1.21.10-3.el7_6

to

    subscription-manager-1.24.13-1.el7

Digging deeper; Relevant upstream commit:

    https://github.com/candlepin/subscription-manager/commit/84366179eb7a58734c5c5ba892685996ce0cc675

Additionally the following commit is actually addressing a profile upload issue in RHEL 7.7:

    https://github.com/candlepin/subscription-manager/commit/4840136342520ce356254c3452a38368a01b6991

=> RHBZ#1742208: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/1742208
Comment 9 Oliver Falk 2019-08-22 13:17:10 UTC 
It's confirmed by the customer that setting package_profile_on_trans=1 eliminates these messages.

However, the old code path obviously has now a bug, that leads to the 'Loaded plugin: [ ... ]' issue.
And additionally:
* No matter if I set package_profile_on_trans to 1 or 0, in both cases it prints 'Uploading Package Profile' after Cleanup stage, before Verifying stage in the yum transaction.
* If I set it to 1 - I'd expect it to upload the data, but it doesn't
* If I set it to 0 - I'd expect it to NOT upload the data, but it does

So it's completely the other way round.

All that given. The code mentioned in the upstream commits, doesn't exist in subscription-manager-1.24.13-1.el7, it's only available in subscription-manager-1.25.1-1 (which we do not have in RHEL7 yet).

The only code that uses the package_profile_on_trans option is indeed in katello-host-tools-3.5.0-2.el7sat; Namely in:

    /lib/python2.7/site-packages/katello/utils.py

So, we should leave the component of this RHBZ untouched, I guess.

As demonstrated above , the "Loaded plugins: product-id, subscription-manager" message now appears thrice v/s as many no.of enabled repos. The fix has definitely improved the experience.However ,we understand there can still be some fine tuning done to reduce the plugin load to 1 . As mentioned in comment 31 a separate bug 1797791  has been logged to track this effort.
