Description Stephen Herr 2014-03-06 16:32:15 UTC

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #830609 +++

Description of problem:
When I used spacewalk-create-channel, I was able to assign a human-readable name to cloned channels using e.g., --name "My cloned channel name"

I'd like to be able to do something like that with spacewalk-clone-by-date. Right now, you can only clone to a label, and that label becomes the channel name. It would be cool if we could add a third field to the -l argument, something like:

-l source_channel_label destination_channel_label "Friendly Name"

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
It's not there in spacewalk-utils-1.2.1-16.el6sat.noarch

How reproducible:
See above

Steps to Reproduce:
See above
  
Actual results:
limited channel name options

Expected results:
Human readable channel names

Comment 3 Stephen Herr 2014-04-03 18:27:33 UTC

One more commit required.

dyordano found a problem where if you were using an '=' in the new channels argument it would throw an error due to a bug in optparse:

spacewalk-clone-by-date --channel=test_ch  clone-test_ch   --username ${RHN_USER} --password ${RHN_PASS}
Usage: spacewalk-clone-by-date [options]
     
spacewalk-clone-by-date: error: --channels option does not take a value

Optparse is apparently not smart enough to handle explicit value setting for callback options. This commit works around the problem by transforming '--channel=test_ch' into '--channel test_ch'.
