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).

Description Jan Pazdziora (Red Hat) 2023-08-30 11:46:56 UTC
Description of problem:

Today, attempt to run ipa-server-install started to fail on CentOS 9 Stream.

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

ipa-server-4.10.2-4.el9.x86_64
389-ds-base-2.3.6-2.el9.x86_64
idm-pki-ca-11.4.2-1.el9.noarch

How reproducible:

Deterministic.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start with CentOS 9 Stream

   or start with RHEL 9.2 and do

   dnf install -y https://mirror.stream.centos.org/9-stream/BaseOS/$(uname -m)/os/Packages/centos-stream-repos-9.0-22.el9.noarch.rpm https://mirror.stream.centos.org/9-stream/BaseOS/$(uname -m)/os/Packages/centos-gpg-keys-9.0-22.el9.noarch.rpm
   rpm -e redhat-release-eula ; rmdir /usr/share/redhat-release ; sed -i 's/^/# /' /etc/yum/protected.d/redhat-release.conf ; dnf swap -y redhat-release centos-stream-release
   dnf upgrade -y

2. yum install -y --setopt=install_weak_deps=False ipa-server
3. ipa-server-install -U -r EXAMPLE.TEST -n example.test -p Secret123 -a Secret123

Actual results:
