I just tested it on a clean install SL6 server with the following
result:

# spacewalk-repo-sync --channel=sl6-i386-epel6 --type=yumsubset
Error: Unknown type yumsubset

After some digging in the code I found the error was being generated by
/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/spacewalk/satellite_tools/reposync.py

After changing line 62 to 
  if options.type not in ["yum","yumsubset"]:

I get this error:
# spacewalk-repo-sync --channel=sl6-i386-epel6 --type=yumsubset
Traceback (most recent call last):

The file /etc/rhn/spacewalk-repo-sync-yum.conf has this content:

[sl6-i386-epel6]

I've generated the packagelist with command
yum list installed | awk -F '\.' '/@epel/ { print $1 }'

What am i missing...
