[Spacewalk-list] API: How can I list and change packages in Package Profile ?

[Zhukovski, Dmitry]

Hello Thomas,

  Thank you for the answer. I am doing it in same way now but hoped there is API way.

  Then next question - I am trying to install new system via kickstart synced with some Package Profile. During sync stage scripts find some packages are already installed and fail to continue sync. Is there any way to force to ignore package dependencies and/or installed packages during that stage?

Br,
dmitry

You can list the packages only on WEBUI. There's no API for that so far
I know. (But feel free to create a RFE bugzilla.)

You cannot modify package profiles (not even on WebUI). A stored profile
is just a snapshot of installed packages. It's not meant to be edited.
If you need a profile with another package list, you would need to
install all the required packages on a system and create a new profile.

Regards,
Tomas
