Description Samuel Kielek 2007-03-22 14:52:56 UTC

Description of problem:

If you have a package foo-1.0-0.noarch.rpm that was built for EL3 machines and
is in a custom child channel under a EL3 base channel and then you build another
package called foo-1.0-0.noarch.rpm on a EL4 machine and try to add it to a
custom child channel for EL4 under the EL4 base channel you get a md5 mismatch
and it skips the upload.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Latest stable

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. rhnpush --username=admin --password=foo -c custom-i386-es-3
/packages/rhel3es-i386/foo-1.0-0.noarch.rpm --server http://rhn.marriott.com/APP
-vvv
2. rhnpush --username=admin --password=foo -c custom-i386-es-4
/packages/rhel4es-i386/foo-1.0-0.noarch.rpm --server http://rhn.marriott.com/APP
-vvv

Actual results:
# rhnpush --username=admin --password=foo -c custom-i386-es-3
/packages/rhel3es-i386/foo-1.0-0.noarch.rpm --server http://rhn.marriott.com/APP
-vvv

# rhnpush --username=admin --password=foo -c custom-i386-es-4

Package /packages/rhel4es-i386/foo-1.0-0.noarch.rpm mismatch -- Skipping Upload
(use --force to force upload)

Expected results:

Since each package is unique and intended for a different RHEL release, the
second rhnpush should succeed and upload the package because it is going into a
channel for a different RHEL version.

Comment 1 Bret McMillan 2007-03-22 18:35:33 UTC

Packages are shared between channels.  RHN specifically does not want same
nvrea's owned by the same owner to have different checksums.  It's our way of
ensuring sanity in the nvrea namespace.

The proper thing to do here is increment the release field of the rpm and
rebuild the package, or make the package *be the same package*.

Comment 2 Samuel Kielek 2007-03-22 18:47:00 UTC

I see.. I guess I was expecting separation between channels. So in the example
above I should have R be 0.EL3 and 0.EL4 for RHEL3 and 4 respectively. That
makes sense, thanks.
