On RHEL 8.1 with sat-tools from 6.6: package gofer-2.12.5-5.el8sat.noarch requires /usr/bin/python2 while installing RHV 4.4 this is the only package requiring python2 on the system. Please update gofer to run with python3 instead.

The fixed gofer package should be available since snap 14, but it isn't. We'll look into that.

Avoid installing katello-agent as it resolves the packaging issue for gofer rpm. In situation where there is only gofer rpm (without katello-agent) installed it fails as I reported.
[Service] Environment=PYTHON=/usr/bin/python EnvironmentFile=/etc/sysconfig/goferd ExecStart=/usr/bin/env ${PYTHON} /usr/bin/goferd --foreground Restart=on-abort goferd service uses "/usr/bin/env /usr/bin/python /usr/bin/goferd --foreground" vs. while gofer rpm requires /usr/libexec/platform-python python2 gofer rpm required /usr/bin/python2 while python3 gofer rpm requires /usr/libexec/platform-python and it should be /usr/bin/python3
Checking if I read correctly. If katello-agent is installed then the pathing is fine and everything works correctly. If you just install gofer (which is not a supported scenario) then the pathing for python is incorrect? If that is true, we can clean this up in a later release as I think what we care about the most is whether katello-agent works or not.
we don't support installing gofer standalone without katello-agent. this is something we should clean up but not block 6.7 GA as long as katello-agent + gofer are working together. Lukas, if you can confirm that the agent functionality is working as expected, we can move this off of 6.7
Hello testing on behalf of Lukas I registered a RHEL8.1 system to Sat6.7 latest snap Subscribed to repos[1] inc. tools from 6.6 While installing katello-agent it failed on installing dependency python3-setuptools. I had to try a few times to install that and resync the repository 'Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8 for x86_64 - BaseOS RPMs 8'. Then I could install katelo0-agetn as expected. In the Content Hosts web UI I see: Katello Agent Installed From the Task tab I could install vim.

Hello I should have added, that on my test host, I have: [root@rhel8-1 ~]# rpm -q gofer gofer-2.12.5-5.el8sat.noarch
Hello My test in comment 15 confirms Mike's test in comment 9 But the issue in comment 0 still exists, so as per comment 13 and comment 14, it should be re-evaluated another time. Thank you
/usr/libexec/platform-python is a valid replacement for the requires, if the package requires that path, the original issue is solved as we are no longer requiring python2
