[katello-devel] activation keys referencing non-existent pools

[Tom McKay]

I don't think disabling is an option. It's not there any more so there's nothing to reference.

On a related note, it bothers me that we have our own activation keys at all that lie completely outside of candlepin. Shouldn't we be letting candlepin handle them and piggy-backing any additional info?
