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 John Sefler 2020-02-17 15:00:56 UTC 
Description of problem:
As part of the release steps for subscription-manager-migration-data, we execute the TPS suite of tests that are integrated with the errata tool.

The following is a failing tps-srpmtest that is likely caused by a change in the spec file...


=== Specfile dist Usage Test =====================
DIST CHECK: %{dist} found instead of %{?dist} in: subscription-manager-migration-data-2.0.50-1.el7.src.rpm.spec
  Release string was: 1%{dist}
TPSHINT: Release engineering policy is to use %{?dist}.  This is a bug in the package being tested, and should be fixed before release.
TPSRESULT: Specfile dist Usage Test Returning: FAIL



Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
subscription-manager-migration-data-2.0.50-1.el7

How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
Run the TPS test suite from the errata tool for advisory...

Comment 4 Chris Snyder 2020-02-17 15:43:27 UTC 
The workaround for this issue is to create a dist macro definition (as the only reason this would be an issue is if your system is missing one).

To do this create a file /etc/rpm/macros.dist_custom with the following contents (for RHEL 7, less the triple quotes):
"""
# dist macros.

%rhel 7
%dist .el7
%el7 1
"""
