Description Petr Sklenar 2009-04-27 13:11:59 UTC

Description of problem:
s-c-packages asks for cd which I haven't, because I installed system from tree

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
RHEL4:
system-config-packages-1.2.23-2
up2date-4.8.1-33.el4
rhnlib-2.1.4-5.el4

RHEL3: yulia kopkova found it happens for RHEL3 too

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. install system from tree; maybe it doesn't matter from which place
2. register system
3. system-config-packages
4. try to click&download&install something  

Actual results:
it asks for CD from RHEL48 , but I didn't use CD for install neither upgrade 

Expected results:
it installs pkgs from some registered channel

system-config-packages never talked to RHN; in RHEL < 5, up2date is the only thing on the system which does

Comment 2 Radek Bíba 2009-04-27 14:24:58 UTC

If you don't have CD but you have access to an installation tree over HTTP or FTP, you can always use --tree=URL (protocol://host/path to the directory with .discinfo).

Comment 3 Petr Sklenar 2009-04-27 16:45:18 UTC

I am sorry I thought it talks to RHN, OK.
