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.

RHEL CI revealed a few problems with the package as it was imported from Fedora 34, fix at least:

* Wrong Artistic License abbreviation
* Use of obsolete functions (inet_aton, inet_ntoa, gethostbyaddr) (fixes under review upstream)

Upstream commits to backport:

    Eliminate inet_aton() and inet_ntoa()
    
    Both functions are obsolete, replace them by equivalent calls to
    inet_pton() and inet_ntop().

commit 1e984079817a3c804eae25dea937d63d18c57a6c
Author: Phil Sutter <phil>
Date:   Tue Apr 27 10:02:34 2021 +0200

    nft-arp: Make use of ipv4_addr_to_string()
    
    This eliminates quite a bit of redundant code apart from also dropping
    use of obsolete function gethostbyaddr().
