No, it shouldn't have anything to do with the kernel on the parent system.

Hm, we can try, but I think ts object is just the interface to the rpm 
database. 

I think it would help if you could edit /usr/share/kadischi/lib/functions.py, 
replace get_kernel_version  function with the following:

def get_kernel_version (rootdir):
  """Returns kernel version that is installed on the destination system"""
 kernel_version = None
 clear_rpm_db_files (rootdir)
 ts = rpm.TransactionSet (rootdir)
 mi = ts.dbMatch ()
 for hdr in mi:
  print "%s-%s-%s" % (hdr['name'], hdr['version'], hdr['release'])
 for mi in ts.dbMatch ('name', 'kernel'):
  kernel_version = "%s-%s" % (mi['version'], mi['release'])
 clear_rpm_db_files (rootdir)
 return kernel_version

And then send me the output. Kadischi will fail again, with the same error 
message, but it will print the list of packages that are present in the rpm 
database.
