Bug 1397447

It would also be helpful to have a specific repo, a specific errata ID, the time at which the repo was sync'd, and where exactly you looked to see that the errata was not updated. This issue will be difficult to reproduce without those details.

I'm not sure if this explains what you saw, but it's important to know that when an erratum gets updated, that change isn't visible until the repo gets published. Usually that happens right after the sync, but if an erratum shows up in more than one repo, there may not be a publish automatically triggered for those other repos.

I'm not sure what to put in an upstream pulp bug report given the info currently on this issue, so please NEEDSINFO me again when there are additional details available.

Here after the specific errata with original wrong metadata

----------------------------------------------------------
hammer erratum info --id RHBA-2015:1426 --repository-id 2
ID:          ff2f1623-0fe6-4c7b-b32d-9530b02237bd

Description: The grub packages provide Grand Unified Boot Loader (GRUB), a boot loader
capable of booting a wide variety of operating systems.
----------------------------------------------------------

those metadata were fixed by Red Hat support but Satellite 6 still refuses to sync this errata again. it sounds like since this errata already exists satellite doesn't try to (re)sync it

Thanks for the details! This was fixed upstream in pulp 2.8.5.
