This should only affect users who installed cobbler several versions 
ago, before the kickstart tracking features were in ...
If you're seeing a traceback while running "cobbler sync", the following 
is the fix for the problem:

To apply this fix prior to the next release:

    git clone git://et.redhat.com/cobbler
    make
    rpm -Uvh cobbler*.noarch.rpm --force

I plan on releasing this later this week, along with a fix for the RHEL5 
DVD/tree "cobbler import" problem reported earlier.
