script common-redhat.sh not working with rhel9 #1536

Open Tsuna77 opened 2 years ago

Tsuna77 commented 2 years ago

Hello,

I try to make a devcontainer using rhel9 image (may affect centos 9 too) and script is failling due to a package that is not available anymore in rhel9, package redhat-lsb-core ( https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2012924 )

Can you update this script without this package (and I Hope there is nothing to try with lsb-vore in other vscode scripts :(

Thanks.

Thanks for opening @Tsuna77. Could you open a PR, which would also help other users see the solution/a workaround in the meantime? Thank you!

I do not make any change, I've put to standby using rhel9 with devcontainers until a fix that is working will be published.

I do not know what are all side effects about do not have this package for vscode and do not know how to test correctly if I try something ^^.

Maybe there is no need of it, or maybe we will need to update a lot of scripts or dependencies because if I understand in the right way, this package allow script and software to know witch rhel we are using by giving /etc/redhat-release file. Without this file, some old script or software may failed to identify rhel version :-( and I do not know the new method to use.
