[Spacewalk-list] OEL repo sync

[Michael Snyder]

The source repo is possibly a rolling version repository (oel6-public-latest-x86_64).  If your sync'd repository has existed for a relatively long time, your repository likely has older packages that have been removed from the source repository.  That would explain the discrepancy in package count.

I have found this to be the case with the Fedora EPEL repo, where conflicting or obsolete packages are removed from the repo as an evolutionary requirement.

If you do not have any dependencies on your local repository, you could remove all packages from your local copy of the repo, and then run the sync operation again.  You'll likely find it comes back with the 19000-something count that the source repo at Oracle currently contains, if it is indeed a rolling version repository and based on my experiences...

Good Luck!
Mike

Hello All,

Simple I don't get it, if the process find 24357 packages, why it didn't download all?

There is almost 5000 packages difference. Why? How could I fix it? I tried to run the
/usr/bin/spacewalk-repo-sync --channel oel6-public-latest-x86_64 --type yum
command from cron, console, the errata-import script run this command every night as well, and still not sync.

Does somebody meet this issue in Spacewalk 2.0 ?
