[Spacewalk-list] Packages "missing" during Kickstart that aren't...

[James Hogarth]

Okay couple of routes we can go down on this one then.

First stop let's see if it is requested even and the status code.

You *should* be able to tail the Apache logs during kickstart to keep an eye
on the HTTP status codes and requests.

It might also help troubleshooting to enable the extra logging in the
appropriate kickstart profile in spacewalk.
