[katello-devel] system package actions - branch merged to master

[Ivan Nečas]

Nice,

What pulp version do we need to run this? I am on 
pulp-0.0.244-5.fc15.noarch and I'm getting:

   Pulp::Consumer: 404 Resource Not Found not found (POST 
/pulp/api/consumers 
/e60b0f05-5069-433c-a8d6-6b4f6a9f88ab/updatepackages/): not found

when I try to install new package.
