[Spacewalk-list] API kickstart profile update problem

Hi,

Using the perl API (for spacewalk 1.4, but I assume the same issue exists in 1.6), I can remove/add channels to a kickstart profile.
However: using the webinterface, I see that, when I download the kickstart file, the old channels are still being used in the profile (the "repo --name" lines). Just pressing "Update kickstart" fixes it, but this seems very weird to me: shouldn't API kickstart changes in fact *change* the kickstart? Needing to press "update kickstart" in the web interface afterwards goes against all logic. Is there something I can do to force a regeneration of the kickstart profile, or has this indeed been fixed in 1.6 (which would give me one more reason to force the update)?

Regards,

Franky
