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 YongkuiGuo 2021-05-13 09:40:49 UTC 
Description of problem:
There is no perl-hivex and perl-Sys-Guestfs packages in latest RHEL9 compose. The virt-win-reg command doesn't work in RHEL9.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
guestfs-tools-1.46.1-1.el9.x86_64
libguestfs-1.45.5-1.el9.x86_64


How reproducible:
100%


Steps:

1. On rhel9.0 host with RHEL-9.0.0-20210511.3 compose
# virt-win-reg --version
Can't locate Sys/Guestfs.pm in @INC (you may need to install the Sys::Guestfs module) (@INC contains: /usr/local/lib64/perl5/5.32 /usr/local/share/perl5/5.32 /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/lib64/perl5 /usr/share/perl5) at /usr/bin/virt-win-reg line 22.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/bin/virt-win-reg line 22.

# virt-win-reg --version
Can't locate Win/Hivex.pm in @INC (you may need to install the Win::Hivex module) (@INC contains: /usr/local/lib64/perl5/5.32 /usr/local/share/perl5/5.32 /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/lib64/perl5 /usr/share/perl5) at /usr/bin/virt-win-reg line 23.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/bin/virt-win-reg line 23.


Actual results:
As above

Expected results:
The virt-win-reg works well in RHEL9

Comment 1 Richard W.M. Jones 2021-05-13 09:58:14 UTC 
This was caused by missing Requires: perl-generators in the spec file, an
easy fix.
Comment 2 Richard W.M. Jones 2021-05-13 10:00:07 UTC 
I mean BuildRequires, not Requires.  Fedora fix:

Comment 6 Richard W.M. Jones 2021-05-13 10:17:58 UTC 
It's stuck in gating at the moment, but FYI the dependencies
now seem to be correct:

Comment 7 Richard W.M. Jones 2021-05-13 21:34:23 UTC 
Some dependencies are incorrectly in buildroot, see:
