Yes, I did.

Oracle has done some fantastic work regarding this: https://github.com/oracle/spacewalk/tree/SPACEWALK-2.10 <https://github.com/oracle/spacewalk/tree/SPACEWALK-2.10> with the repo: http://yum.oracle.com/repo/OracleLinux/OL7/spacewalk210/server//x86_64/index.html <http://yum.oracle.com/repo/OracleLinux/OL7/spacewalk210/server//x86_64/index.html> 

I forked <https://github.com/rippiedoos/spacewalk/tree/SPACEWALK-2.10> their repo and added the handling of modules.yaml in the tool spacewalk-manage-channel-lifecycle, based on the Uyuni-project: https://github.com/uyuni-project/uyuni/pull/2745 <https://github.com/uyuni-project/uyuni/pull/2745>

I haven’t published any build-instructions yet but it’s working for me. It’s only a couple of patches extra for the Oracle-versions of those patches, adding the handling of modules data when merging packages into existing channels with spacewalk-manage-channel-lifecycle. Maybe there are some other tools that need adjusting as well, I don’t know.

However, there is work going on to also allow the Uyuni-project to be built and run on RHEL8, not only on SUSE-systems.
