-----------------------------------
[~lianetm]—is this a client fix or broker?
> New consumer doesn't updateLatestMetadata for topics matching new regex

> Key: KAFKA-18690
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-18690
> Project: Kafka
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: consumer
> Reporter: Lianet Magrans
> Assignee: Sean Quah
> Priority: Blocker
> Labels: kip-848-client-support
> Fix For: 4.0.0

> When the consumer subscribes to the new RE2J regex resolved on the broker,
> it's not keeping the leader and epoch info from the metadata response, so not
> able to properly update the fetch positions.
> After getting the assignment with the topics matching the regex, and
> receiving the topics in a metadata response, the consumer is not retaining
> topics that are assigned with Re2Jpattern so fails with
> Leader for partition {} is unknown for fetching offset {}
>
> This seems to be the reason behind it, not retaining topics assigned with RE2J

> So when handling the metadata response that includes the matching topics it
> will never make it to update the leader/epoch info.
