Description of problem:
For example
package_gssproxy_removed
actually does:removing many packages important for OS functionality. Some of these may be packages installed by other rules (
nfs-utils
?).Please change the remediations to always call
dnf
with--noautoremove
, ie.SCAP Security Guide Version:
master @ dbf309d
Operating System Version:
RHEL
Additional Information/Debugging Steps:
Discovered this on RHEL-9.0 because STIG remediation would break our tests by removing
python-pyyaml
, but looking at the package list, many other beakerlib-based tests would be broken too. However that's a separate issue that--noautoremove
won't fix (hard dependency ongssproxy
).The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
