The issue is I saw this warning message in this scenario:

1) Install CFSE10
2) Fetch some data from fake CDN, subscribe few repos
   (and those are just simple names like "Zoo Enterprise i386 6.1")
3) Upgrade to CFSE11
4) During the migration you see this warning message
   (actually it is hidden by katello-upgrade but I saw it)
5) Unfortunately I did not get to the state I could test the consumers
   if yum still work.

I wonder why Pulp warns in this case, it looks our labels are okay,
because org is ACME and env was set to "env" or "prod" or something like
that.

QA: Can you investigate more on upgrade scenarios? I have fixed a bug
(part of the latest puddle) when we were NOT running pulp-migrate at
all, therefore upgrade was not working at all. Now it should be finally
working.
