Description David LeVene 2014-12-11 02:34:38 UTC

Description of problem: Errata Data is not synced from the Scientific Linux Repos when it is available;
http://mirror.aarnet.edu.au/pub/scientific/6.6/x86_64/os/repodata/repomd.xml


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): This importing is being done via the latest version of katello 
pulp-server-2.4.0-1.el6.noarch / pulp-katello-0.3-3.el6.noarch / katello-2.0.0-0.el6.noarch


How reproducible: always


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Log into Katello and setup a new product
2. Click repo discovery and use this URL http://mirror.aarnet.edu.au/pub/scientific/6.6/x86_64/
3. Select OS (or any of the other 3

Actual results: All packages are successfully synced, but no errata data is pulled in


Expected results: Packages & errata data are seen in katello


Additional info: http://mirror.aarnet.edu.au/pub/scientific/6.6/x86_64/os/ is the single mirror that can be used.

Also on a side note, can you import errata data manually or manually modify a pulp sync to provide it an alternative location for errata data?

The problem was that the mirror uses bz2 compression for the metadata files instead of the standard gzip.  PR is to add support for bz2.
