I am having zero luck.........ugh!!!  Maybe I am not meant to have spacewalk running.  Reverted back to clean snapshot, created file yum.repos.d, then attempt spacewalk-setup-postgresql

yum install spacewalk-setup-postgresql

 You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
 You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest

The only repo I have is 
yum repolist
repo id                         repo name                                                 status

repolist: 438

Our instructions are all based on using Oracle RDBMS as the backend for Spacewalk, which should be no surprised given we're Oracle. :) 

To use PostgreSQL, you'd need to install "spacewalk-setup-postgresql" first (just like upstream) and then install spacewalk-postgresql and run spacewalk-setup --disconencted to use the "embedded" PostgreSQL instead.

Cheers,
Avi
