Description Xixi 2009-10-08 03:43:34 UTC

Description of problem:
When attempting to compare and merge packages to a cloned channel from a base channel, customer cannot "Select all".

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Red Hat Network (RHN) Satellite 5.3.0

System architecture(s):
RHEL 4 32-bit

How reproducible:
Always.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. On a 5.3.0 Satellite, create a cloned channel of a RHEL Base Channel, start with original state of channel (no errata).
2. Click Channels-->Manage Software Channels-->(Cloned Channel Name)-->Packages-->Compare-->Select the Source/Original RHN Base Channel-->Compare-->Merge Differences-->Select "Make Identical..."--->Preview Merge-->Select All.

Actual results:
No packages are selected or the existing selection is cleared.

Expected results:
All packages are selected.

Additional info:
In what looks like another manifestation of the same issue, if you click on a few package checkboxes, then click "Update List", the selection also disappears.  Also, if you click a few checkboxes, then click the next arrow, the selection disappears as well.

Possible workaround:
RHN API call channel.software.mergePackages ?

Comment 2 Xixi 2009-10-08 03:47:43 UTC

This seems to have similar symptoms as bug 459445 although I've not found any conflicting set labels in this case, so maybe it's different after all...

Seem like commit ca6e20fbf897f351b67309ba175844a62ea39818 broke this.
