Hey Michel,

I re-read my original message, I probably should have been less curt
(sorry!). The work around seems to be use the packages out the .6 repo (
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.redhat.spacewalk.user/3009 ). It
also appears that the "offical" repos will be updated when the packages
are ported.

The packages I needed were:
 rhn-check-0.6.4-1.el5.noarch.rpm
 rhnlib-2.5.13-1.el5.noarch.rpm
 yum-rhn-plugin-0.6.2-1.el5.noarch.rpm
 rhn-client-tools-0.6.4-1.el5.noarch.rpm
 rhn-setup-0.6.4-1.el5.noarch.rpm

Patrick
