Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.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 Peter Bieringer 2020-10-23 05:21:06 UTC
Description of problem:
sa-update fails, because of EOL channel configuration sought.conf

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
spamassassin-3.4.2-7.el8.x86_64

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
/usr/bin/sa-update -v --channel sought.rules.yerp.org --channel updates.spamassassin.org --gpgkey 6C6191E3 --gpgkey 5244EC45

Actual results:
Update available for channel sought.rules.yerp.org: -1 -> 3402014020421

Expected results:

Additional info:

according to posting found by Dr. Google, "sought.rules.yerp.org" is really EOL:

http://spamassassin.1065346.n5.nabble.com/Bug-7800-New-Can-t-run-sa-update-cron-td157878.html

-> please remove that particular config file from the package:

rpm -qf /etc/mail/spamassassin/channel.d/sought.conf 
spamassassin-3.4.2-7.el8.x86_64

Workaround:

meanwhile rename the file:
mv /etc/mail/spamassassin/channel.d/sought.conf /etc/mail/spamassassin/channel.d/sought.conf.EOL
