It would be awesome to have "proper Spacewalk support for Ubuntu/Debian".

But is it really necessary to reinvent the wheel? (Set aside that SuSE 
people, traditionally sitting on their hands, are probably not *mumble*)


I think we're basically already there, we'd just need 1 or 2 people 
taking proper care of the clients instead of hacking stuff together in a 
"works for me" kind of manner.
Here, we have Ubuntu 16.04 and 18.04 running with every aspect of 
Spacewalk at the time of me writing this.

I mean, think of Spacewalk as it is now, just with proper working .deb 
Client packages for all active Debian and Ubuntu releases.

Would 80% of the pepole really need MORE?

Heck, maybe I'll even do the packages myself in the next days or have my 
colleagues do it....
