Doc Text:
Cause: Cloning a channel wouldn't properly clone the activation key and wouldnt update the default session key properly Consequence: If cloning a kickstart and selecting a different base channel in the newly cloned kickstart, with an activation key that uses a different base channel, kickstarting a system using this newly cloned profile fails. Fix: Clone the session key properly, when kickstart gets cloned. Result: Successful kickstart under listed circumstances.
