Description John Sefler 2011-07-26 02:09:07 UTC

Description of problem:

Something bad was committed in the following build 913:
http://hudson.rhq.lab.eng.bos.redhat.com:8080/hudson/view/Entitlement/job/subscription-manager_master/913/

It is causing a traceback when attempting to call the CLI subscription-manager over ssh....

[jsefler@jseflerT510 ~]$ ssh root.redhat.com subscription-manager -help
root.redhat.com's password:

Fixed by 7bb47656d90786d37ab75c9be4158d6d80b5a7f3

CLI was using code that loaded GTK. Refactored this out to fix the problem.
