[Spacewalk-list] Config file removal

[Waldirio Manhães Pinheiro]

Ok

I see, the actual behavior is expected (if you remove from conf channel
will not change in the client side).

What you can do is:

1. Create one smart script that can do this one for you in the client side,
you can deploy in /etc/cron.hour for example and in the next cycle will be
executed.

or

2. Another way should be using puppet, via puppet you can define for
example "ensure" for present or absent, so you will prepare all you need in
manifest and then just deploy to your clients, if you add something, your
client can add it, if you remove something, your client can remove it.

Make sense ?

Let me know if you have any doubt about it.
