[Spacewalk-list] Help Setting Up Ubuntu Channel/Repository

[Eric Herget]

Spacewalk 2.7 will be released shortly and includes some significant 
improvements to Ubuntu/Debian version handling.  If you are running 
spacewalk from the nightly repo and it is up to date, you already have 
the server side fixes.  You will also need the updated Ubuntu/Debian 
client bits.

One note.  After updating to 2.7 or nightly that incorporates these 
fixes, you will need to recreate your Ubuntu/Debian repos in spacewalk 
in order to have the fixed version parsing put the correct values in the 
database.
