[Spacewalk-list] yum repolist problems spacewalk 1.1

[rob morrien]

hello,


afther running a lot of times the cache file /var/cache/rhn/repodata
was rebuild

but i see an other problem in spacewalk 1.1

when i take a package off from a channel and i run on the client
yum repolist is see in the total numbers that a package was taken off.

but when i add packages the var cache on the spacewalk system was not
updated . i had to clean the /var/cache/rhn/repobuild again

and i have to rebuild the file again.

afther this action the cache was ok.

support:
this looks a bug in the rebuild of the repo cache.

can this be fixed urgently?

regards rob
