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 Dinesh Prasanth 2019-11-12 20:03:10 UTC 
Description of problem:
The ipa-healthcheck contains library code that provides functionality
to read registries, execute tests and much more. This functionality
is shared by 3 different healthcheck tools: pki-healthcheck, ds-healthcheck
and ipa-healthcheck itself.

These functionalities must be offered as a library and packaged
individually to be reused.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
0.3

How reproducible:
<not a bug>

Steps to Reproduce:
<NA>

Actual results:
Introduces circular dependency (ie) pki-healthcheck requires
ipa-healthcheck to use the library functions and ipa-healthcheck
requires pki-healthcheck to run the tests.


Expected results:
A common library that can be reused by all 3 healthcheck tools thereby
reducing the chances of divergence and breaking one another

Additional info:
Comment 1 Rob Crittenden 2019-12-02 15:03:36 UTC 
Upstream 0.4 abstracted the plugin execution.

This makes it possible to split the package so the core processing, ipa-healthcheck-core, is shipped as a subpackage of ipa-healthcheck.

ipa-healthcheck requires ipa-healthcheck-core but not vice-versa. Other packages can depend on ipa-healthcheck-core and not get all the unnecessary dependencies.
