Bug 970785

Relevance w.r.t Katello
In katello we used to set the auto publish attribute false for repositories in the library environment. This was done as an optimization thing since never had any consumers register to library (so we never needed to do the somewhat expensive publish op). However we now want a feature that will let one to register consumers to library and consume content from there. For that to happen we need to either enable auto publish or periodically call the publish operation directly.
