Red Hat Satellite engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on Satellite 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 "Satellite project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs will be migrated starting at the end of May. 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 "Satellite project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/SAT-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.

The steps in warning state itself might not mean there is an error,
but it should be reviewed to ensure the behavior is expected


[root@dhcp-3-115 foreman_maintain]# foreman-maintain packages update rubygem-foreman_maintain,zsh
ERROR: install or update 'rubygem-foreman_maintain' package individually.

# foreman-maintain packages install rubygem-foreman_maintain, zsh

Actual results:
foreman-maintain packages install and update command treats same package list input differently. 

Expected results:
Consistent/same package input format for foreman-maintain packages install/update command.

Verified

Verified with:
- Satellite 6.8.0 snap 15
- rubygem-foreman_maintain-0.6.10-1.el7sat.noarch

Observation:
- foreman-maintain packages install/update command use space separated packages list.
    foreman-maintain packages update/install [OPTIONS] pkg1 pkg2 pkg3

- all other command options need to be provided before packages list. In following format:
    foreman-maintain packages update/install [OPTIONS] [PACKAGES] ...
