Hi,<br><br>The spacewalk 0.6 server on Centos 5.4 I have is using a scheduled cron job to run spacewalk-repo-sync to import a variety of upstream repositories into various channels. That appears to be running fine and I can see packages being imported and see them in the required channels afterwards.<br>
<br>However this morning I noticed something a little odd.....<br><br>The spacewalk server itself reported that there was a new cups and cups-lib package available for it - considering I have the cups service disabled I wasn't concerned initially. It was only when looking into the other systems that are subscribed to my spacewalk instance that I realised the package should apply to most of them and yet only the spacewalk server itself showed any packages out of date.<br>
<br><br>Comparing a system built a couple of weeks ago to one built yesterday shows<br><br><table width="100%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><thead><tr><th><br></th>

<br>If the newest package is chosen in the channel listing the older system is showing as a valid target in target systems for deployment.<br><br>Both servers were built with the same kickstarts with the same activation key and have the same channel subscriptions.<br>
<br>Any ideas?<br><br>James<br>
