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.

Seems the solution done in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1952426 was not complete.

While we are excluding tracevent plugins to be included in tools/perf package now that libtraceevent provides it, we are still shipping its debug files through kernel-debuginfo-common, we should also not ship/remove those.
Comment 2 Herton R. Krzesinski 2021-06-22 21:38:36 UTC 
The osci.brew-build.installability.functional test fails in the update and downgrade tests for every build. The error is sligthly different now, but the root cause still should be the same, kernel stil ships tracevent plugins debug files but we shouldn't anymore:

Comment 3 Michael Petlan 2021-06-30 21:29:16 UTC 
So the problem is not a conflict, but the fact that kernel-debuginfo-common still contains the traceevent plugins...
