Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.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.

Right now qemu-kvm defines the following in the spec file:

Obsoletes: qemu-kvm-ma
Obsoletes: qemu-kvm-rhev

However it generates a warning saying that using unversioned obsoletes is not recommended.


Those needs to be replaced by:

Obsoletes: qemu-kvm-ma <= {%epoch}:%{version}-{release}
Obsoletes: qemu-kvm-rhev <= {%epoch}:%{version}-{release}

This is a low hanging fruit that needs to be fixed eventually.
I created this BZ so we don't forget.

Assigned to Jeff for initial triage per bz process and age of bug created or assigned to virt-maint without triage.

Assigned to Danilo for delegation to a maintainer.

@QA_ACK + ITM, please?

@QA_ACK + ITM, please?

QE bot(pre verify): Set 'Verified:Tested,SanityOnly' as gating/tier1 test pass.

Reproduced it with qemu-kvm-4.2.0-53.module+el8.5.0+11673+72138537.src.rpm

and check qemu_kvm.spec

%define rhev_ma_conflicts()                                      \
Obsoletes: %1-ma                                                 \
Obsoletes: %1-rhev

Verified it with qemu-kvm-4.2.0-55.module+el8.5.0+11936+2f1c2d95.src.rpm

%define rhev_ma_conflicts()                                      \
Obsoletes: %1-ma <= %{epoch}:%{version}-%{release}               \
Obsoletes: %1-rhev <= %{epoch}:%{version}-%{release}


So changed bz to verified
