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 of problem:

When you use any luks* API call, you see this error:

libguestfs: error: luks_open: cryptsetup: error while loading shared libraries: libfipscheck.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

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

libguestfs-1.7.17-17.el6.x86_64

How reproducible:

100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. guestfish -a /dev/null run : luks-open /dev/vda foo
2. When it says "Enter key or passphrase ("key")" just type anything.
3.
  
Actual results:

The error above.

Expected results:

You should not see the error about loading shared libraries.  You'll
see another error about /dev/vda not being a LUKS volume, which is OK.

Additional info:

This should have been caught by the regression tests.
We also need to investigate why it wasn't.

Users can temporarily work around this bug by doing:

echo './lib64/libfipscheck.so.1*' > /usr/lib64/guestfs/supermin.d/hostfiles

https://brewweb.devel.redhat.com/taskinfo?taskID=3544452

Reproduced on libguestfs-1.7.17-17:

$ guestfish -a /dev/null run : luks-open /dev/vda foo
...
libguestfs: error: luks_open: cryptsetup: error while loading shared libraries: libfipscheck.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Verified on libguestfs-1.7.17-26: No loading shared libraries error, just an error about /dev/vda not being a LUKS volume, which is OK.
