In order for all kickstart functionality to work correctly, these packages should be present in at least one channel associated to this profile. moving to On_QA Moving to ON_QA VERIFIED on 5/21 ISO.

Description of problem: I've tried to create a para-virt Xen guest kickstart for RHEL 5.3 on Satellite 5.3.0. The Satellite had RHEL 5, RHEL 5 VT, and RHN Tools channels synced from hosted (not webqa), via export. I got the following message in blue oval: This kickstart profile uses a base channel that is missing packages. In order for all kickstart functionality to work correctly, the following packages should be present in this kickstart's base channel: pyOpenSSL, rhnlib, libxml2-python, spacewalk-koan*. The second sentence seems to imply that these packages are expected in kickstart's base channel == RHEL 5 channel. That does not seem to be the case, at least for spacewalk-koan. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Satellite-5.3.0-RHEL5-re20090306.2 on i386 How reproducible: Deterministic. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create para-virt Xen guest kickstart for RHEL 5.3 on Satellite synced from hosted (not webqa). Actual results: The kickstart pages (like /rhn/kickstart/KickstartDetailsEdit.do?ksid=1) will have the following message in blue: This kickstart profile uses a base channel that is missing packages. In order for all kickstart functionality to work correctly, the following packages should be present in this kickstart's base channel: pyOpenSSL, rhnlib, libxml2-python, spacewalk-koan*. Expected results: The message should not imply that spacewalk-koan is to be found in RHEL 5 channel when in fact it is in RHN Tools channel. Additional info: When I've re-registered the Satellite 5.3.0 to webqa and synced RHN Tools channel and spacewalk-koan, the message went away. Still, the error message should not be misleading, if it's to be used to fix the problem. Also see thread on http://post-office.corp.redhat.com/archives/satellite-devel-list/2009-March/msg00212.html
