    Hint: All official data files are nowadays part of the installed rpms. This issue is usually encountered when the data files are incorrectly customized, replaced, or removed (e.g. by custom scripts). In case you want to recover the original file, remove it (if still exists) and reinstall the leapp-upgrade-el7toel8 rpm.
