Aligning under space16.

Comment 2 Šimon Lukašík 2011-08-19 07:39:35 UTC
The Debian package of osad needs to be rebased to the latest version.
The fix should lend in client/debian/osad directory in the spacewalk.git.

Comment 3 Jan Pazdziora (Red Hat) 2012-03-16 14:40:28 UTC
This issue is currently blocked by lack of active maintenance of the Debian packages:

If we don't find a volunteer soon, we'll have to close this bugzilla without resolution.

Comment 4 Jan Pazdziora (Red Hat) 2012-06-22 11:03:18 UTC
Since we have no active maintainer for the Debian packages, closing as CANTFIX.
