[Spacewalk-list] question about local repos with spacewalk.

[Sebastian Meyer]

Hi Jason,

don't clone the repository to local, just let the spacewalk do the
cloning. Spacewalk sorts the packages into it's own structure and serves
them via tomcat, not as a normal repository.

If you are talking about RHEL repositories there's been a thread a few
weeks ago, describing the necessary steps to get those into Spacewalk
without first syncing them to a RHEL system.
