[Spacewalk-list] CentOS Errata Script

[Goff, Raal]

Hi Everyone,

Someone expressed interest in my hacked up version of the centos
errata script available here:

http://www.bioss.ac.uk/staff/davidn/spacewalk-stuff/

I've attached my version, but its really not that well done. I changed
it so that it will download messages for centos-announce from mail-archive.com
, then augment the data from RHN. It will also properly create errata
valid for multiple architectures. I think ive broken the other methods
of loading data in the process as well, so if you want those i suggest
you use the original script.

Just edit the config file to your liking, then run it using the
following:

./centos-errata.py -f scrape blah

You need any second argument since im lazy and didnt update the
arguments parsing parts of the script.

I doubt anyone will actually find this useful, but perhaps some of the
functions could be useful to someone who wanted to write a proper
script :)
