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:
Using sub-man-1.0.17-1, I registered to stage using stacking-stage, and when I go to the All Available Subscriptions tab, I see 3 separate subscriptions, each with a parent. As far as I can tell, there is no benefit to having that parent there, you can't interact with the top level, and there's only one subscription per, so it isn't actually bundling things together.

It'd be nice if we could do away with the useless headers and just have the subscriptions listed there, taking up 3 rows instead of 6.

I assume this is due to stacking, since I've never seen subscriptions handled this way, and all 3 of those subscriptions are stackable. I don't think there are any non-stackable subs in there to compare against.

Useless Parents

master commit 7e0005a5691553aca1e42f8ff7e2837515b94962

Created attachment 653628 [details]
stacking parents

Tested with: subscription-manager-gui-1.1.10-1.el6.x86_64

As you can now see from the screen shot, stacking subscriptions with unique stacking IDs, seen here as "Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server, Standard (1-2 sockets) (Up to 4 guests)" and "Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server, Standard (1-2 sockets) (Up to 1 guest)"  have no parent in the list.

The old functionality, however, has been retained for multiple items sharing the same stacking ID.

Marking VERIFIED.
