That's exactly expected. The spacewalk* packages have replaced the rhns* packages. The spacewalk* packages versioning started from 0.1 while rhns* were at 5.2 or similar. Thus, saying that spacewalk* in epoch 0 provides rhns* in epoch 1 is actually correct, and it ensures that upon upgrade, rhns* packages get removed. > Actual results: > See above.

Description of problem: spacewalk-backend package "provides" numerous versioned provides like "rhns = 1:1.7.38-45.el6sat" (including epoch), but package itself do not have epoch set (to "1"). Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): spacewalk-backend-1.7.38-45.el6sat.noarch.rpm How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: $ rpm -qp --qf="%{EPOCH}\n" spacewalk-backend-1.7.38-45.el6sat.noarch.rpm (none) $ rpm -qp --provides spacewalk-backend-1.7.38-45.el6sat.noarch.rpm | grep '= [0-9]\+:' rhns = 1:1.7.38-45.el6sat rhns-common = 1:1.7.38-45.el6sat spacewalk-backend-upload-server = 1:1.7.38-45.el6sat Actual results: See above. IMO package should either define "epoch = 1", or provide versioned provides without epoch specified. In case this is expected and wanted state, please close this bug. Expected results: Packages epoch ane epoch in versioned provide should match.
