[Pulp-list] Help around somme commands (multiple questions)

Definitely a good idea to send this to the list, since everybody on the 
pulp team would like to hear the good things you have to say about Pulp 
and also help you with the issues you are seeing. Cc'ing pulp-list in 
this reply. Other comments are inline -

This is expected as you are running pulp-admin commands (initiating 
install from the server) and not running it directly on the consumer 
with pulp-consumer commands. The good thing is agent.log on the consumer 
has received correct request and there are no errors. I don't understand 
the problem here. Are you saying that the k3b rpm was not installed on 
the consumer? or that the command did not track the installation of the 
package like in the case of 'consumer package install' command below?
