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 Richard W.M. Jones 2023-03-09 10:12:25 UTC
Description of problem:

I just found that the RHEL 9 package of hwdata does not include
the hwdata.pc file.  We use this in guestfs-tools to locate
the PCI and USB databases:

https://github.com/rwmjones/guestfs-tools/commit/ca21ee4918cd7d4472bd875a495752a03a03fa87

and we want to ship this feature in RHEL 9.3:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2168626

I could hack guestfs-tools, but it seems better to update
hwdata (also so we get the newest database).  This also means
adding the hwdata-devel subpackage.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

Ideally the latest version (0.368) but at least >= 0.362.

Additional information:

If you want me to fix your package, assign this bug to me.
