Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because
the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.
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.
dmraid uses non-standard soname versioning:
/lib/libdmraid-events-isw.so.1.0.0.rc16
/lib/libdmraid.so.1.0.0.rc16
Could you remove the .rcX suffix?

This request was evaluated by Red Hat Product Management for inclusion in a Red
Hat Enterprise Linux major release. Product Management has requested further
review of this request by Red Hat Engineering, for potential inclusion in a Red
Hat Enterprise Linux Major release. This request is not yet committed for
inclusion.
Let's update this to incorporate similar clean-ups to those we recently applied to lvm2.

Daniel,
the 'standard' naming is provided.
The .rcX is for the dmraid versioning purpose.
Do you feel this really mandatory to get removed?
Heinz,
dmraid is the only package in RHEL which didn't pass the test.
Every other package (okay, except openssl which has a letter in the version) has only numbers and dots in the .so version.
From release-engineering perspective, I'd like to have it changed.
Anytime you change package version, soname changes as well and we have to make sure all dependant packages are rebuilt.

Daniel,
the packages (namely python-pyblock) are being linked against libdmraid.so.1,
not the ".rcX" sufficed one anyway, hence no issue with ".rcX" changes.
Then this is only about the glob hitting "rcX", no?

This issue has been proposed when we are only considering blocker
issues in the current Red Hat Enterprise Linux release. It has
been denied for the current Red Hat Enterprise Linux release.
** If you would still like this issue considered for the current
release, ask your support representative to file as a blocker on
your behalf. Otherwise ask that it be considered for the next
Red Hat Enterprise Linux release. **

Closing because linking happens vs. numerically suffixed lib.
