Bug Description
[Impact]
This bug has minimal impact to users. Warnings are being thrown by the service in its journal; but that seems to be the only issue -- valid results are still being returned by the prometheus collector in the number of packages that need updates for each repository; along with node_reboot_
The bug fix is to clean up the regex to avoid the warnings.
This is not applicable elsewhere than in focal; later releases have stopped installing the service and associated script.
[Test Plan]
1) Run /usr/share/
2) Validate that it returns without awk warnings.
[Where problems could occur]
- An invalid regex might cause repository stats to be returned in the wrong format for parsing by prometheus.
- Invalid regex would still show warnings or errors in awk.
