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 Nate Straz 2009-04-07 21:00:02 UTC
Description of problem:

Found during TPS tests, /sbin/gfs2_edit depends on a library in /usr.

gfs2_edit should probably be moved to /usr/sbin.

=== SharedLibTest =====================
gfs2-utils-0.1.53-1.el5_3.2.i386: /sbin/gfs2_edit relies on libs in /usr: libncurses.so.5 => /usr/lib/libncurses.so.5 (0x006fc000) 
SharedLibTest: 11 regular binaries and 11 debug files were found.
Checked 13 of these 22 ELF objects, and 1 error was found.
Unless otherwise reported, any unchecked objects are part of debuginfo and may be ignored.
TPSRESULT: SharedLibTest Returning: FAIL

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
gfs2-utils-0.1.53-1.el5_3.2

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. ldd /sbin/gfs2_edit | grep /usr
  
Actual results:


Expected results:

Comment 1 Robert Peterson 2009-04-08 14:57:14 UTC
I have no problem moving it to /usr/bin.  My concern is what happens
to people who currently have it located in /sbin?  The Makefile should
probably also make sure it gets deleted from /sbin.

Comment 2 Robert Peterson 2009-04-21 14:30:20 UTC
I had a discussion with Chris Feist and Nate Straz and we decided it
was a bad idea to move the binary mid-release.  Therefore, I'm
deferring this bug to RHEL6.

Comment 3 Robert Peterson 2009-04-21 17:55:37 UTC
Spoke with Fabio, and it turns out that in F11, gfs2_edit does
reside in /usr/sbin.  So the issue here for RHEL6 is more that
some of the others, such as fsck.gfs2, need to be moved to /sbin.
Fabio is going to take care of that upstream, so this should be
a non-issue for RHEL6.  Closing it as NEXTRELEASE.
