[Powerpc-utils-devel] [PATCH v2] Powerpc-utils: Restrict the usage of snap on RHEL 7 onwards

[Henish P. <hp...@li...>]

snap is not supported on the RHEL 7 onwards, because we have integrated snap
functionality in sosreport. So this patch displays a suitable message.
RHEL 7+ users can use sosreport to collect log data.
