Description

Request from Vincent M.:

For the context, this started with bsc#1116740 - kernel-default-base not
provided in online channel, which is the most critical bugs we had in JeOS yet.
Since the issue was that kernel-default-base was an orphaned package therefore
JeOS users would never received any kernel updates…

After discussion inside the JeOS team, we came up with the decision to manually
use that orphaned_packages_check.pm test to prevent such orphaned issue.

Now I wanted to bring this topic to QA and other PrjMgr/RM because:

  • orphaned_packages_check.pm is ONLY used (AFAIK) during SLE migration test but
    not during regular build test. I.E checking orphaned packages from SPX when
    migrating to SPX+1. But no check to see if SPX+1 contains orphaned packages by
    himself, if this is a relevant test. Should we change that?

  • ATM orphaned_packages_check.pm require to manually check the output, is there
    a way to automate this somehow?

  • What about other product, do they use orphaned_packages_check.pm, something
    else, or nothing?
