Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.
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 Dana Walker 2019-11-12 02:08:04 UTC
Description of problem:
Using toxml_f() on a libcomps.Comps() object yields correct xml except it omits type="mandatory" though it includes type="optional" and type="default" just fine.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
0.1.11

How reproducible:
Reliably

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go into a python3 shell
2. Read in a test xml file:
    >>> import libcomps
    >>> comps = libcomps.Comps()
    >>> ccomps.fromxml_f("test.xml")
3. Create an xml file from this Comps object:
    >>> comps.toxml_f("test_output.xml")
4. If you used even one of libcomps own test xml files,
https://github.com/rpm-software-management/libcomps/blob/master/libcomps/tests/sample-comps.xml
you can observe on line 134 the amanda-client as an example has type="mandatory" in the original xml but it does not show up in the newly created xml.

Actual results:
type="mandatory" omitted in created xml

Expected results:
type="mandatory" present in created xml
