[Spacewalk-list] Snapshot packages

[Waldirio Manhães Pinheiro]

Hi Rodrigo

I believe the stored profile will do what you need.

About packages, normally you add packages in your frozen channel, base or
child (erratas, update, etc), so at this moment you have the actual package
and the new package. If you need roolback will works fine.

Let me know if works
