The latest releases of Fedora 36 has an issue with the /etc/services file. Here is the output of augtool print /augeas//error:

/augeas/files/etc/services/error = "parse_failed"
/augeas/files/etc/services/error/pos = "563493"
/augeas/files/etc/services/error/line = "9472"
/augeas/files/etc/services/error/char = "36"
/augeas/files/etc/services/error/lens = "/opt/puppetlabs/puppet/share/augeas/lenses/dist/services.aug:87.10-.39:"
/augeas/files/etc/services/error/lens/last_matched = "/opt/puppetlabs/puppet/share/augeas/lenses/dist/services.aug:82.44-.64:"
/augeas/files/etc/services/error/lens/next_not_matched = "/opt/puppetlabs/puppet/share/augeas/lenses/dist/util.aug:111.22-.67:"
/augeas/files/etc/services/error/message = "Iterated lens matched less than it should"

And here is line 9472 and 9473 from the /etc/services file:

ircu-3          6667/tcp        ircd,ircu3    # IRCU
ircu-3          6667/udp        ircd,ircu3    # IRCU

The above has a misconfigured alias, ircd,ircu3. The rule alias is defined here: https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man5/services.5.html, and clearly states it should be a spaced or tabbed.

This should hopefully get fixed upstream in the Fedora product, I am noting this as an issue here for reference.

Remove the commas from aliases in the services file
259d135 
According to the man page for services: https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man5/services.5.html,
The alias is an optional setting that is a space or tab seperated list. In a previous PR that
changed the services file there was a change introduced that added an alias but had commas
seperating the aliases.
This small change breaks some things downstream, example for this is the Augeas tool breaks
when attempting to read the services file if there is an comma in the alias, I have created
an issue for that here: hercules-team/augeas#772
This PR simply switches out the commas for a space.

This is fixed in the setup package in Fedora version 2.14.2. That is currently in the 'rawhide' stream of Fedora. Not sure if it will ever get added to the 36 or 37 versions of Fedora, but looks for certain will be in Fedora 38.
