[Spacewalk-list] Clone errata with pkgs of another channel.

[Speagle, Andy]

Hi Nilton,

That's a good catch... that has never been an issue for me since I don't have mixed vendors on my system.  I'll get this updated and put out a patch as soon as I can.  Thanks for sharing your usage case.

Hi.

I've been reading the python-clone-errata.py and I see that it uses the findByNvrea method. Can I create another method like this, adding vendor or provider parameter? I guess this will solve my problem, which is the first entry matched on database is returned, no matter the channel. (I debug with some prints on the script and comparing with the id's on the database).

If not, the another "solution" (workaround), is to first upload packages from RHN than the CentOS for example (but this sounds very ugly).

Thanks,
Nilton Moura.

Hi,

I'm cloning erratas from RHN with rhn-clone-errata.py 0.9.0 by Andy Speagle, but some erratas are being associated with packages from another channel (when the same package exist on CentOS for example).

For example, after publish the errata RHSA-2012:0060 from rhel-5-x86_64-server, I go to Packages and the GUI shows me only one package (openssl-0.9.8e-20.el5_7.1-i686), but if I go to Packages in Manage Errata, the list appears different:

openssl-0.9.8e-20.el5_7.1-i686 RHEL x86_64 Server (v. 5) rhn
openssl-0.9.8e-20.el5_7.1-x86_64 CentOS x86_64 (v. 5) updates
openssl-devel-0.9.8e-20.el5_7.1-i386 CentOS x86_64 (v. 5) updates
openssl-devel-0.9.8e-20.el5_7.1-x86_64 CentOS x86_64 (v. 5) updates
openssl-perl-0.9.8e-20.el5_7.1-x86_64 CentOS x86_64 (v. 5) updates

I uploaded two prints with this to better understanding:

-> http://static.inky.ws/image/1180/image.jpg
-> http://static.inky.ws/image/1181/image.jpg

If I manually remove this CentOS packages from the errata and add the corrected packages from rhel channel I correct this.

Thanks,
Nilton Moura.
