Description of problem:
Various Provisioning Templates shipped within Satellite use `dnf install ..` in %post . That is failing on RHEL10.1 and problematic in general dues to several aspects:
1) MAINLY it is broken due to https://issues.redhat.com/browse/CCT-1911 : `dnf` attempts to upload package profile newly to `rhsmcertd`, but that is stopped (yet).
2) by default, package installation should happen in `%package`, not in `%post`. Though I understand `%packages` phase does not have access to Satellite-specific repos to install e.g. `katello-host-tools`.
3) during the kickstart, all commands are chrooted - cant this alone cause any issues to `dnf install`?
We should consider if using `dnf` commands in %post in Provisioning Templates is safe enough.
If so, let ensure the https://issues.redhat.com/browse/CCT-1911 does not further affect Satellite.
How reproducible:
100% (I guess)
Is this issue a regression from an earlier version:
yes
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Try to provision a RHEL10.1 system with e.g. "Kickstart default" Provisioning Template (having `dnf -y update`).
Actual behavior:
Provisioning fails on:
Installed products updated. Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/python3.12/site-packages/dnf-plugins/subscription-manager.py", line 297, in _upload_profile with open("/var/lock/subsys/rhsmcertd", "r") as lock_file: ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/var/lock/subsys/rhsmcertd' During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/python3.12/site-packages/dnf/plugin.py", line 108, in _caller getattr(plugin, method)() File "/usr/lib/python3.12/site-packages/dnf-plugins/subscription-manager.py", line 270, in transaction self._upload_profile() File "/usr/lib/python3.12/site-packages/dnf-plugins/subscription-manager.py", line 301, in _upload_profile self._upload_profile_blocking() File "/usr/lib/python3.12/site-packages/dnf-plugins/subscription-manager.py", line 279, in _upload_profile_blocking with LiveStatusMessage("Uploading DNF profile"): ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ File "/usr/lib/python3.12/site-packages/dnf-plugins/subscription-manager.py", line 283, in _upload_profile_blocking profile_mgr.update_check(self.cp, identity.uuid) ^^^^^^^ AttributeError: 'SubscriptionManager' object has no attribute 'cp'
likewise https://issues.redhat.com/browse/CCT-1911 describes.
Expected behavior:
No such failure.
Business Impact / Additional info:
Workaround here is to use `--noplugin` DNF option for any dnf command.
Maybe worth adding the option to all templates?
