The errors that you're receiving from this script are due to the high
probability that the channels you created in your Spacewalk aren't
matching up with what are the channels I have listed in the channel
mappings within the script itself.  You'll want to update those to match
your channel names.

The reason you're getting this far with verbosity on is that some of the
errata already exist in your system... somewhere.  Judging by the target
errata names below (with the included channel suffix "R5-32") at some
point you had the channel name right and have changed it in Spacewalk,
or you put those errata in by hand.

A bit ago, I posted a slightly more current version to the list, but
I'll send it to you directly as well.  The changes shouldn't affect the
problem you're experiencing.  The main thing changed was the method of
publishing errata to reduce (resolve?) time-out issues.
