% After copying the new file it's still crashing with the same error.  I

% 
% /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/spacewalk/satellite_tools
% 
% Has similar files -
% 
% reposync.py:                 ASCII English text
% reposync.py.broken.reposync: ASCII English text
% reposync.pyc:                python 2.4 byte-compiled
% reposync.pyo:                python 2.4 byte-compiled
% 
% I'm not a programmer so not sure what's goes on with python scripts.
% Moved reposync.pyc and it got recreated.  Does the same happen with
% reposync.pyo ?

Yes. Remove both .pyc and .pyo and rerun spacewalk-repo-sync. The files
should get regenerated.
