I'm unable to reproduce this problem. Cloned Red Hat channels are properly deleted using API. Can you please provide more information - how have you cloned this channel, what Red Hat channel it is, source code example?

Comment 2 Stephen Benjamin 2013-06-19 07:54:25 UTC

Sorry, PEBKAC.  All works as expected.

I was passing the original channel label to sat.channel.software.delete instead of the new cloned one.
