It’s not in the first stage clone, it’s second stage and beyond. Errata can be downloaded or applied to download channels, and cloned down to your development channels gracefully. If you clone errata from dev to QA, (this is the problem,) I’ve noted for years that packages referenced in the errata may be brought into the channel even if they do not apply to the channel. The big issue is bringing EL7 packages into an EL6 channel, and the like. To remediate this, clone the errata in the 2<sup>nd</sup> stage of your pipeline, then immediately compare channel package contents and make this channel look like it’s clone source.<o:p></o:p></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p> <p class="MsoNormal">Jeff Kalchik<o:p></o:p></p> <p class="MsoNormal">Land O’Lakes Server Support Managed Resources.<o:p></o:p></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p> <div> <div style="border:none;border-top:solid #E1E1E1 1.0pt;padding:3.0pt 0in 0in 0in"> <p class="MsoNormal"><b>From:</b> spacewalk-list-bounces@redhat.com <spacewalk-list-bounces@redhat.com> <b>On Behalf Of </b>Ted Carr<br> <b>Sent:</b> Friday, May 8, 2020 7:24 AM<br> <b>To:</b> spacewalk-list@redhat.com<br> <b>Subject:</b> Re: [Spacewalk-list] [EXTERNAL] Cloning errata to cloned channel using spacecmd<o:p></o:p></p> </div> </div> <p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p> <p class="MsoNormal">Thanks Dean.
