Hi,

I looks like the : in "libogg-1.1.3-3.el5:2.x86_64" seems to cause some problems. I'm working with the RHEL5 repo for this. Is it a potential bug? Apologies in advance if it's been filed already, but I couldn't see it.

The colon has a special meaning in the search engine Spacewalk uses.
However, rpm names generally do not contain colons. Are you really sure there should be a colon there?
