    so... 
Brand new .5 server with only itself as the client.
uploaded the packages from reposync results to channels
generate key, assign server as client to the channels made.

client shows 60 packages to upgrade, select all , upgrade, confirm  
 >fail  "No package(s) available to install"

that's a good one!:)  nothing in the logs either.  ideas?


I associate the system back to the previous spacewalk server and it 
updates just fine.  revert back to the new .5 server running on it and

yum fails to see anything as well but it does know about the channels.
