      .The OSCAP Anaconda add-on does not fetch tailored profiles in the graphical installation

      The OSCAP Anaconda add-on does not provide an option to select or deselect tailoring of security profiles in the RHEL graphical installation. Starting from RHEL 8.8, the add-on does not take tailoring into account by default when installing from archives or RPM packages. Consequently, the installation displays the following error message instead of fetching an OSCAP tailored profile:

      ----
      There was an unexpected problem with the supplied content.
      ----

      To work around this problem, you must specify paths in the `%addon org_fedora_oscap` section of your Kickstart file, for example:

      ----
      xccdf-path = /usr/share/xml/scap/sc_tailoring/ds-combined.xml
      tailoring-path = /usr/share/xml/scap/sc_tailoring/tailoring-xccdf.xml
      ----

      As a result, you can use the graphical installation for OSCAP tailored profiles only with the corresponding Kickstart specifications.

      This bug was initially created as a copy of Bug #2165920

      I am copying this bug because:
      It seems to be the same problem; differs only in a couple of details.

      Description of problem:
      Anaconda GUI (Security Profile spoke) shows error 'There was an unexpected problem with the supplied content.' when trying to fetch a valid OSCAP tailored profile as RPM.

      Output from /tmp/anaconda.log:

      Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
      RHEL-8.8.0-20230114.0
      anaconda-33.16.8.6-1.el8.x86_64.rpm
      oscap-anaconda-addon-1.2.1-10.el8.noarch.rpm

      How reproducible:
      always

      Steps to Reproduce:
      1. Make sure http://rtt1.s390.bos.redhat.com/oaa/sc_tailoring.rpm is available for download. If it is not, the RPM is available in attachment to this bug. Make it available for download.

      2. Run manual OS installation and enter the 'Security Profile' spoke.

      3. Click 'Change Content' button, fill 'http://rtt1.s390.bos.redhat.com/oaa/sc_tailoring.rpm' in the text box and click 'Fetch'.

      Actual results:
      GUI shows error 'There was an unexpected problem with the supplied content.'. Tailored OSCAP profile is not used.

      Expected results:
      No error is shown. Anaconda uses the tailored OSCAP profile.
