Currently, when creating child software channels, one must specify the arch of the child when, IMOOO, the child should automatically detect and use the parents arch. While minor, it is an easy thing to miss and cause problems later.
Mass-aligning under space12, so that we don't lose track of this bugzilla. This however does not mean that we plan (will be able to) address this bug in Spacewalk 1.2.
Mass-moving to space13.
We did not have time for this one during Spacewalk 1.4 time frame. Mass moving to Spacewalk 1.5.
Aligning under space16.
I decided to solve this problem by a simple javascript logic, which, when a parent channel is chosen, automatically changes the channel architecture to parent's arch. spacewalk.git master: 9d6e5bff94ddaf8437c6f1a8648e31539c51ab8a Thank you for your report, sorry for the delay!
