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.

The spice-server and spice-client packages use common libraries in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.1. This renders the following packages obsolete: cairo-spice 1.8.7.2 and earlier, ffmpeg-spice 0.4.9-1 and earlier, pixman-spice 0.13.3-6 and earlier, and spice-common 0.4.2-8 and earlier. These obsoletions are now recorded in the spice-server.spec file. Note that if both spice-client and spice-server are installed on a system, upgrading one of them will also cause the other to be upgraded. (BZ#674171)

Description David Blechter 2011-01-31 20:43:53 UTC
removing those packages from the distribution as they're no longer needed

Comment 2 Uri Lublin 2011-02-04 02:31:16 UTC
These are the packages that are obsolete:
cairo-spice-1.8.7.1-4.el6 (+ devel)
ffmpeg-spice-0.4.9-0.15.5spice.20080908.el6 ( + devel + libs)
pixman-spice-0.13.3-5.el6 ( + devel )
spice-common-0.4.2-7.el6  ( + devel )

Should be done for spice-client as well.

Obsoletes: spice-common-devel < 0.4.2-8

Comment 6 Dennis Gregorovic 2011-04-11 16:15:32 UTC
Based on IRC conversation, I suggest we not add these Obsoletes.  The Obsoletes tag should be reserved for cases where a package is renamed or where one package is replacing another.  In this situation, we just have packages that are no longer needed, but keeping them around won't break the system.  Bill, do you agree?

Comment 7 Bill Nottingham 2011-04-12 02:24:13 UTC
Assuming they don't conflict, and won't conflict with future packages, it's probably OK to leave them around.
