Description John Wregglesworth 2005-10-13 17:33:08 UTC

Description of problem: rhn-satellite-exporter needs a --no-kickstarts
command-line option, which will prevent kickstart info from being included in a
satellite export.

Comment 1 John Wregglesworth 2005-11-14 16:40:16 UTC

Test Plan:

1. Export a channel with rhn-satellite-exporter while using the --no-kickstarts
option. I would create a new directory for this dump to avoid confusion when
examining the  dump directory. Also, make sure that the channel has kickstart
information associated with it (examples: rhel-i386-as-4, rhel-i386-as-3, etc.).

      rhn-satellite-exporter --dir=test3 -crhel-i386-as-4 --no-kickstarts

2. Watch the output from the above command and make sure that it doesn't say
that it is exporting kickstart data or kickstart files.

3. ls the directory you included with the --dir option and make sure that the
kickstart_files and kickstart_data directories are not included.

The tool is broken.  Please see the two tracebacks below:


[root@rlx-3-14 ~]# rhn-satellite-exporter --channel=rhel-i386-as-4 --dir=myexports
Traceback (most recent call last):

    import dumper

Comment 3 John Wregglesworth 2005-11-29 17:45:53 UTC

The reason it failed was because I missed a file in the Makefile and spec file.
string_buffer.py has been added and the rhns packages rebuilt. The changes are
in the 4.0.5-28 or later rhns-satellite-tools package.

Comment 4 Fanny Augustin 2005-12-05 20:53:08 UTC

Looks good on QA

Comment 5 Todd Warner 2006-01-25 05:42:08 UTC

Released.
