the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.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.
Description of problem:
The auto-subscribe window used to be part of the register dialog and process. When it was moved to a new window so it could be done as a separate action, all the strings remained the same and it looks as if the dialog is still part of the registration window.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
subscription-manager-gui-1.0.17-1.git.12.23074e9.el5
How reproducible:
always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start up subscription manager
2. Register
3a. Open the auto-subscribe dialog by clicking the auto subscribe button
3b. When you register in step 2, don't check "manually subscribe"
Actual results:
3b) If autosubscribing while registering, when the user gets to the subscription part of the process, the user still thinks they are in the registration process. This presents a problem because if the user presses cancel at this point, they are still registered when the dialog closes and it does not actually cancel the register.
3a) If opening the auto-subscribe dialog through its stand alone button, The progress bar reads "Registering" and the window title reads "System Registration". This is misleading and confusing because the system has already been long registered at this point. Additionally the dialog has nothing to do with registering.
Expected results:
The auto-subscribe window should take some measures to let the user know they are not registering at this point.
I would start by changing both the window title and the tile of the progress bar to something that has to do with finding subscriptions.

This request was evaluated by Red Hat Product Management for inclusion
in a Red Hat Enterprise Linux release. Product Management has
requested further review of this request by Red Hat Engineering, for
potential inclusion in a Red Hat Enterprise Linux release for currently
deployed products. This request is not yet committed for inclusion in
a release.
I think I'm going to push this out again. If we have to change it for 6.4, we can probably do it with existing strings, or get an exception. Not confident in trying to fix this for string freeze.
