[Spacewalk-list] wrong packages in channels

Yes..  Someone has in the past manually ran a reposync command and pointed 
it to the el7  vs the el6 repository URL.  You may want to also validate 
the repository URLs to Channels mapping.

Channels -> Manage Software Channels -> Manage repositories 

To audit all of them:  If they all have URL's. 

for repo in $(spacecmd -q -s xxxxxx repo_list); do echo -n "$repo " ; 
spacecmd -q -s xxxxxxx repo_details $repo |awk -F'URL:' '/URL:/ {print 
$2}'; done


- Thanks and good luck

Hello,
When running “yum update” on my spacewalk clients I’m seeing some 
dependency failures and strange dependencies. For example, a CentOS 6 
server wants to install a package meant for CentOS 7, or an OL7 server 
wants to install an OL6 package.  When I look at the list packages in the 
channels in Spacewalk ( Channel – Manage Software channel – 
centos6-updates – Packages- List/remove packages), I see things that don’t 
belong.  For instance, in my Centos7 channels, I see both “Oracle Inc” as 
well as CentOS listed in the “Content Provider” column.
 
Another example is that my oraclelinux6-updates channel has both “Oracle 
Inc” and CentOS listed in the “Content Provider” column, as well as 
packages with “.el7” in the name (these have “Oracle Inc” listed as the 
“Content Provider”).
 
Has anyone seen this before, and have suggestions why this happened?
 
Thanks!
Nicole
