Hello,
The last couple of months we got some problems with installing updates
on spacewalk nodes (CentOS 4 and CentOS 5).
The errors I get on the CentOS 4 machines (using a fresh installed
spacewalk 1.0 server!):
Failed: There was a package conflict error with the package set: RPM
package conflict error. The message was: Test install failed because of
package conflicts: The following packages were added to your selection
to satisfy dependencies: Name Version Release

newer than httpd-2.0.52-41.ent.7.centos4) is already installed package

when I run up2date -fu everything works fine on the centos 4 machines:

install a little bit more:

I am running the following scripts on the clients to make sure the
packages are correctly checked on the spacewalk server:
0 0 * * * /sbin/service osad restart 1>/dev/null 2>/var/log/osad_restart.log
0 1 * * * /sbin/rhn-profile-sync 1>/dev/null 2>/var/log/rhn_profile_sync.log
On the server I am updating the repositories with:

Why are yum and spacewalk totaly out of sync? Even if I am running a
nightly job to update the package profile?
It looks like it is trying to reinstall centos 5.5 and its updates again..
If I need to provide some more information I am more then happy to
provide some logfiles :)
Tjhanks in advance for any help.
