[Spacewalk-list] spacecmd errata delete - not clean

[Musayev, Ilya]

Figure it out, created a dump of spacewalk db, looked everywhere for the string in question and could not find it in DB.

Dug deeper and found that spacecmd cached erratas, systems and login info.

It can be cleared either by delete errata file from ~/.spacecmd/ or via clear_caches command in spacecmd shell.

Overall, we probably need an enhancement request for spacecmd maintainer to add a time out and invalidate the cache or add a message on "errors" to drop the cache.

Could you have erratas that could be applied to a channel but are unpublished?

Or were there any tracebacks or other errors in the web api log while you were doing the deletes?

Went in to spacecmd again to delete the erratas I recently imported, it appears the remnants of erratas that were deleted on the first errata_delete still exist. For example, when I want to delete all rhel-x86_64-server-5 errata's for the second time, I get
