[Spacewalk-list] spacewalk 2.6 - ubuntu integration trouble

Thu Mar 16 16:21:34 UTC 2017

Hey,

I had some trouble with Ubuntu 16.04 and spacewalk, too.

After some researches and developing, I finally got it working.
Spacewalk-repo-sync is working out of the box, so there is no more need to gebianSync.py anymore, but many other things still have to be changed handy.
It would be nice, if especially the bugs in some files could be fixed fastly.

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/attachment.cgi?id=999613&action=diff&context=patch&collapsed=&headers=1&format=raw   ---   /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/spacewalk/server/rhnRepository.py @ Spacewalk
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/attachment.cgi?id=999612&action=diff&context=patch&collapsed=&headers=1&format=raw   ---   /usr/lib/apt/methods/spacewalk @ Ubuntu 16.04
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/attachment.cgi?id=999611&action=diff&context=patch&collapsed=&headers=1&format=raw   ---   /usr/lib/apt-spacewalk/pre_invoke.py @ Ubuntu 16.04
In /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/spacewalk/common/rhn_deb.py the checksum_type has to be changed:

sed -i "s#DEB_CHECKSUM_TYPE = 'md5'#DEB_CHECKSUM_TYPE = 'sha256'#g" /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/spacewalk/common/rhn_deb.py

Furthermore, spacewalk still does not create Release-files.
So I had to

gpg --gen-key      ( auf anderer ssh Session  rngd -r /dev/urandom )
gpg --export-secret-keys --armor email at address.com > spacewalk.gpg.privkey
gpg --list-keys
gpg --armor --export email at address.com > spacewalk.gpg.pubkey

With following script, you can create the files:

https://github.com/DeadRabb1t/spacewalk-scripts/blob/master/secureApt.sh

I’d like to make some of these changes, but I don’t know where
Greetings,

Christian

Hi,

Since 2.6 Spacewalk officially supports Ubuntu. You shouldn't use "debianSync.py" workaround any more.
I would suggest you to wipe the whole old Ubuntu packages and start over from clean page.

Software Channel -> Repositories -> Create a new repository -> Repository Type (drop down list) choose "deb".

Regards,
Gabi.

It works fine with other repo but doesnt seem to work with i386.

Thanks

Morning,

am trying to add ubuntu channel into spacewalk 2.6 and i have un error at the end of repo-sync when packages are linked to channels :

"ERROR invalid channel architecture 514"

the ubuntu channel is set to sha256 and AMD64 Debian architecture

having a look into the postgresql database i found into rhnchannelarch table those values :

514 | channel-amd64-deb | 2 | AMD64 Debian | 2015-10-08 ... | 2015-10-08

for example the ubuntu package is named : wget-1.17.1-1ubuntu1.1.amd64-deb

if somebody has an idear ... ?
