Yeah I was working fine on 2.0.3 until went to build a system that had
a few sippets in the kickstart then hit issues. Downgrading teh
package was the quickest solution I had whilst trying to get a new box
built.

This is spacewalk 1.0 for reference.

If we can just escape the variable I'll do a test upgrade later.
