[Spacewalk-list] Spacewalk Channel Corruption?

  Hi all;
I'm having what seems to be a recurring problem when syncing spacewalk 
channels
(f13 updates specifically) with available packages from Fedora mirrors.

I'll run a spacewalk-repo-sync on the child channel I've created for 
updates. The script
will then run but not actually sync with the current packages and 
therefore download
duplicates. This in turn breaks yum on my client machines.  Under the 
channel config,
it lists over 10k pacakges available when in reality it should be 7500.
I get errors that dependencies are required for packages but they cannot 
be installed,
such as following:

Error: Package: libXcursor-1.1.10-4.fc13.i686 (f13-x86_64)
            Requires: libXrender.so.1
Error: Package: gstreamer-plugins-base-0.10.30-1.fc13.i686 
(f13-x86_64-updates)
            Requires: libXv.so.1
Error: Package: libXfixes-4.0.4-2.fc13.i686 (f13-x86_64)
            Requires: libX11.so.6
Error: Package: xine-lib-1.1.18.1-1.fc13.i686 (f13-x86_64)
            Requires: libFLAC.so.8
Error: Package: xine-lib-1.1.18.1-1.fc13.i686 (f13-x86_64)
            Requires: libmodplug.so.0
Error: Package: gstreamer-plugins-base-0.10.30-1.fc13.i686 
(f13-x86_64-updates)
            Requires: libtheoradec.so.1
Error: Package: PyQt4-4.7.3-1.fc13.i686 (f13-x86_64)
            Requires: libX11.so.6

I can look up the following packages manually under the package search 
function
in spacewalk and see that the packages are there.


Thoughts? Suggestions? Ideas?
I've done "yum clean all" on the clients as well as removed the cache
in /var/cache/rhn/repodata and let it rebuild but it rebuilds improperly.
There are no errors in the rhn/reposync/* logs.

Thanks,
Adam
