[Spacewalk-list] Issues with SW 2.8 and Ubuntu 18.04 Clients

[Paul-Andre Panon]

Actually, I did some updates to the SP today and my preliminary testing is
encouraging. I have a couple of systems where the needed list isn't
updating, which is why I'm not 100% confident it works (although it did
work properly for the systems where the needed list did update). I'm
hoping that will clear up over the next couple of days, but you could try
it now. If you want to roll back to the previous versions, you can still
access them by clicking on the Show Obsolete link.

Cheers,

Paul-Andre

dependencies first to make sure you don?t break anything.
