Thanks Stephen..
Can anyone confirm that spacewalk still does store the packages via name-epoch-version-release instead of md5sum?

I think this is a known problem from a while ago.. not sure what the
status of getting a fix is. The packages are chosen by
name-epoch-version-release versus md5sum or gpg signature.
