[Spacewalk-list] update required to Spacewalk 0.5 and cobbler 1.6

[Mike McCune]

If you are using Spacewalk 0.5 and have Cobbler 1.6 installed you have 
or soon will notice you can't create new kickstart profiles.  The main 
problem is the GUI will error out when trying to complete the step to 
create the profile.

In order to fix this you should 'yum update' from the Spacewalk 
repository.  You should see a series of new spacewalk* and rhn* packages 
updated on your machine.

The second half of this provisioning related fix is requiring the latest 
from cobbler's source repository.  You have a few options on how to get 
this fix:

1) Patch manually:

2) Grab srpm from here:

http://people.fedoraproject.org/~mmccune/rpms/cobbler-1.6.3-1.src.rpm

* rpmbuild -bb cobbler-1.6.3-1.src.rpm
* Install newly built RPM

3) Wait for 1.6.3's release later this week.

feel free to ask questions here or on #spacewalk.  I'm happy to assist 
with the upgrade/patch process.
