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 Kyle Walker 2019-08-21 14:27:55 UTC 
Description of problem:
 Per the subject, the upgrade of cockpit-* packages fail on systems where cockpit-shell has been installed prior to the renaming of the package.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
 cockpit-*-195.1-1.el7

How reproducible:
 Easily

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install cockpit-shell
    # yum install -y cockpit-shell

2. Attempt to update cockpit-bridge, though the same is seen on a system that just issues a "yum update -y"
    # yum upgrade -y cockpit-bridge


Actual results:
 # yum install -y cockpit-shell

 Is this ok [y/d/N]: 


Additional info:
 The cockpit spec subpackage definition for cockpit-system is missing an obsolete tag. Without that, the rename completed in rhbz1353771 doesn't take effect.
Comment 3 Kyle Walker 2019-08-21 15:40:38 UTC 
To work around the issue, the following can be used to "swap" the files in-place:

    # yum swap cockpit-shell cockpit-system

From there, the dependency issue should no longer be present.
Comment 4 Martin Pitt 2019-08-29 04:56:36 UTC 
Thanks Kyle! I'm a bit surprised that cockpit-shell is still a thing -- it hasn't existed since at least RHEL 7.5. Do we support direct upgrades from such ancient RHEL versions?

Either way, it's trivial to fix this, I'll ask for an exception.
Comment 6 Kyle Walker 2019-09-04 13:36:04 UTC 
@Martin,
Yep, upgrades/updates from older installations are supported. It can definitely make things a bit tricky...

Thanks for the quick turnaround!
