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.

Comment 1 Marek Blaha 2022-05-11 16:07:03 UTC 
According to the podman package version I guess this is not Fedora but RHEL bug.
On RHEL required `libsubid.so.3()(64bit)` library is provided by shadow-utils-subid from rhel-8-for-x86_64-baseos-rpms repo:

# dnf provides 'libsubid.so.3()(64bit)'

Matched from:

Comment 2 samsalisbury 2022-05-12 10:03:01 UTC 
This is happening from within the UBI base image: registry.access.redhat.com/ubi8/ubi:latest (same for tags :8.0 through :8.6).

It used to work fine without needing to specifically enable repoinfo rhel-8-for-x86_64-baseos-rpms, e.g.: https://github.com/redhat-openshift-ecosystem/openshift-preflight/runs/6373075551?check_suite_focus=true#step:7:166

However it's now stopped working, e.g.: https://github.com/redhat-openshift-ecosystem/openshift-preflight/runs/6393577883?check_suite_focus=true

Is there a better place to report this issue where it might get resolved quicker?

Many thanks for your help with this.
Comment 3 samsalisbury 2022-05-12 10:08:56 UTC 
Here's a minimal repro using docker to invoke the image:

Command:
  docker run --rm registry.access.redhat.com/ubi8/ubi:8.6 dnf install podman 

Output:
  Updating Subscription Management repositories.

Comment 4 Marek Blaha 2022-05-12 10:59:41 UTC 
Oh, thanks for the reproducer. It looks like RHEL8.6 UBI image repos do not contain all needed dependencies of podman.
I the bug should have been filed against RHEL product / ubi8-container component. So let me re-assign it for further investigation.
Comment 5 Josh Boyer 2022-05-12 11:26:55 UTC 
Thank you for the report.  We are investigating.

This should now be resolved.  If you have further issues, please reopen this bug or file a new one.

Is this ok [y/N]:
Comment 9 samsalisbury 2022-05-13 12:48:45 UTC 
Yes I can see this now working. I did not need to disable any repos as in your example, the following command just succeeded:

# docker run --rm registry.access.redhat.com/ubi8/ubi:8.6 dnf install -y podman

Are there any test cases that could prevent this sort of thing happening again in the future?

Many thanks for fixing this
