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 Aleš Mareček 2011-05-05 14:29:42 UTC
Description of problem:
There is a tool called gem2rpm in Developer Guide, section Ruby - 3.3.9. Ruby - 3.3.9.1. gem2rpm. The problem is that gem2rpm is not present in RHEL-6.1 but documentation doesn't speak about it. This can be confusing for users who would search for this tool. There is also a reference to Fedora project: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Ruby#Ruby_Gems which is about work around and only on the bottom of that reference there is a link to gem2rpm project.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Revision 0-41

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Look for gem2rpm in Developer Guide
  
Actual results:
There is gem2rpm described but no direct reference to this EXTERNAL tool or note that says this tools is not in RHEL-6

Expected results:
Some note saying gem2rpm is not present in RHEL-6 and direct reference (http://rubyforge.org/projects/gem2rpm/) to gem2rpm tool
