Description John Sefler 2012-02-13 22:26:20 UTC 
Description of problem:
When the subscription-manager-migration package was first released with rhel58, the new install-num-migrate-to-rhsm tool depends on instnum.py which was provided by rhel-instnum-1.0.9-1.el5.  Now in rhel63, there is no install (nor brew build) of rhel-instnum package and therefore we get a traceback when we try to run install-num-migrate-to-rhsm as shown in the steps to reproduce below.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
[root@jsefler-r63-server ~]# rpm -q subscription-manager-migration
subscription-manager-migration-0.99.7-1.el6.x86_64


How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
[root@jsefler-r63-server ~]# install-num-migrate-to-rhsm --dryrun --instnumber 123
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/sbin/install-num-migrate-to-rhsm", line 26, in <module>
    from instnum import InstallationNumber, InstallationNumberError
ImportError: No module named instnum

  
Actual results: ^^


Expected results:
Could not parse the installation number: Unsupported string length

Comment 2 Mike Khusid 2012-02-14 15:03:50 UTC 
There is no installation number in RHEL6.

Comment 3 Chris Duryee 2012-02-14 15:08:39 UTC 
reopening, we need to ensure the script is not installed on el6 systems.
