Description Alexander Todorov 2008-10-13 11:15:08 UTC
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #466739 +++

Description of problem:
The manual page chkconfig(8) shows:

<quote>
OPTIONS
       --level levels
              Specifies  the  run levels an operation should pertain to. It is given as a string of numbers from 0 to 7. For example, --level 35 specifies
              runlevels 3 and 5.
</quote>

There's no run level 7, and indeed chkconfig doesn't accept 7 as a valid level parameter. The valid values are from 0 to 6 inclusive.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
chkconfig-1.3.30.1-2

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. man chkconfig
2. search for "7"

  
Actual results:
Incorrect run level 7 specified

Expected results:
Run level 0-6 are specified

Additional info:
It's the chkconfig man page from RHEL5.2 but I believe it's present in 5.3 as well because it's not fixed in F9 too.

Comment 1 RHEL Program Management 2008-10-13 12:03:20 UTC
This request was evaluated by Red Hat Product Management for
inclusion, but this component is not scheduled to be updated in
the current Red Hat Enterprise Linux release. If you would like
this request to be reviewed for the next minor release, ask your
support representative to set the next rhel-x.y flag to "?".

Comment 3 Bill Nottingham 2008-12-04 19:56:12 UTC
I don't see that it's worth a specific fix for this. If we have actual bug fixes that require an update, sure, we can put it in.

Comment 4 RHEL Program Management 2008-12-04 20:04:42 UTC
Development Management has reviewed and declined this request.  You may appeal
this decision by reopening this request.

Comment 8 Bill Nottingham 2009-11-02 19:27:31 UTC
Building as 1.3.30.2-1.el5.
