That could be it.  I just went through and nuked those rows.  I gave up on using repo-sync within spacewalk and moved to CLI repo syncing ...  

Taskomatic died sometime last night, so I've restarted it.. we'll see what happens.

...

There are also a few "update_server_errata_cache" tasks in there..  They're relatively old (added 10/29/09) ..  Can they be safely deleted as well?

Thanks,
