Description David Crim 2009-10-22 20:30:02 UTC

Description of problem:
When loading a i386 channel and an x86_64 channel of the same distribution, the .noarch and .i386 packages in the x86_64 channel end up pointing to the packages from the i386 channel.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
spacewalk-0.6.4-1.el5

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Load a channel for CentOS 5.3 for i386
2. Load a channel for CentOS 5.3 for x86_64

  
Actual results:

The md5sum of the .i386 and .noarch packages served and shown in the web GUI for the x86_64 channel are that of the i386 distribution. The correct packages are in the /var/satellite tree but aren't used.

Expected results:

The md5sum of the .i386 and .noarch packages served and shown in the web GUI for the x86_64 channel are that of the x86_64 distribution.

AFAIK i386 and noarch packages from x86_64 repo of Centos distributions *are* exactly the same as from i386 repo.

x86_64:
# wget http://mirror.centos.org/centos-5/5/os/x86_64/CentOS/agg-2.4-2.1.x86_64.rpm

i386:
# wget http://mirror.centos.org/centos-5/5/os/i386/CentOS/agg-2.4-2.1.i386.rpm
...
2010-03-18 16:32:17 (174 KB/s) - `agg-2.4-2.1.i386.rpm.1' saved [142748/142748]

compare:
# md5sum agg* ala*
a6f2fcdf73011b6e1f5e3db8e1705b89  agg-2.4-2.1.i386.rpm
a6f2fcdf73011b6e1f5e3db8e1705b89  agg-2.4-2.1.i386.rpm.1
cd0b926fa5cc2aed3d92111ef14e4a84  agg-2.4-2.1.x86_64.rpm
29450ddb14c5de1ff6e280e0d2a4f797  alacarte-0.10.0-1.fc6.noarch.rpm
29450ddb14c5de1ff6e280e0d2a4f797  alacarte-0.10.0-1.fc6.noarch.rpm.1


So this an expected behavior.
