[Spacewalk-list] spacewalk 0.8 / fedora 12 client

Wed Feb 17 17:53:12 UTC 2010

To answer my own question, I updated these packages:
 --rhn-setup-0.8.12-1.fc12.x86_64.rpm
 --rhn-check-0.8.12-1.fc12.x86_64.rpm
 --yum-rhn-plugin-0.8.5-1.fc12.noarch.rpm
 --rhnsd-4.9.2-1.fc12.x86_64.rpm
 --rhn-client-tools-0.8.12-1.fc12.x86_64.rpm
 --rhnlib-2.5.22-1.fc12.noarch.rpm
 --python-dmidecode-3.10.7-3.fc12.x86_64.rpm

The package that appeared to fix the error below was:
--yum-rhn-plugin-0.8.5-1.fc12.noarch.rpm

and now the Fedora 12 client appears perfect :)))))

Hi

So far I've had ZERO issue deploying spacewalk 0.8 on Fedora 12. The
install went smoothly, creating and populating channels all worked
without any issues. Also, running rhnreg_ks froma centos 5.4 client also
worked flawlessly. The centos client registered, pulled yum lists and
installed
rpms from the repo.

Small problem with Fedora 12 client, rhnreg_ks all works....but a "yum
repolist fails"  (I'm sure I've seen this before)

I'm going to try and update the "up2date" packages from the nightly
client for Fedora 12.
