[policies/redhat] make missing 'filesystem' package non-fatal
On Red Hat systems, we use the version of the installed filesystem' package to enable handling of UsrMove[1] in the PATH used when running commands from sos. If the package is not present (e.g. because of a broken system configuration, rpm timeout, corrupt database or other cause), previous versions would fail immediately. In this situation there was no way for the user to attempt a complete run (short of fixing the problem related to the 'filesystem' package). Now that the timeout has been lengthened for this command, make the UsrMove determination a bit more robust to prevent users from being unable to run sos at all: - If RPM fails entirely, exit (plugin enablement tests will fail) - If RPM succeeds but 'filesystem' is missing assume UsrMove (this is true for all supported Red Hat distros today) - Otherwise apply the normal PATH logic.
