> i can share the sources with the developer of this software so it allow them to fix it for me But is that realistic? Will you be able to convince a third-party to work with RHEL code if they can't actually install a system themselves? You could provide the code for the errant library, but to really test it, the developer would probably like to try it on a full RHEL system. And if that is now difficult to do w/o a RHEL subscription, what's the third-party developer to do? What you'll find is a slow migration away from third-parties supporting RHEL. I'm not sure what the end game here is for IBM, but it makes the entire ecosystem significantly more difficult to work with.
