[Spacewalk-list] Python 2.6 dependency error on spacewalk 2.8 client install

[David Phillips]

Hi,



I’m following the steps here https://github.com/spacewalkpr
oject/spacewalk/wiki/RegisteringClients to install the spacewalk 2.8 client
on to a CentOS 7 system I want to manage. I have installed the repo’s:



# rpm -Uvh https://copr-be.cloud.fedoraproject.org/results/@spacewalkproject/spacewalk-2.8-client/epel-7-x86_64/00742644-spacewalk-repo/spacewalk-client-repo-2.8-11.el7.centos.noarch.rpm



# rpm -Uvh http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-7.noarch.rpm



But when I run



yum -y install rhn-client-tools rhn-check rhn-setup rhnsd m2crypto
yum-rhn-plugin



I get



Error: Package: python2-rhn-check-2.8.25-1.el6.noarch (spacewalk)

Python 2.6 isn’t on EPEL 7 (and I don’t particularly want to install it
anyway). Is this a dependency bug or something that can be resolved?



Thanks,

David
