Bug 1142412

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1142337 +++

Description of problem:

When Config-Files with macros are used, using rhncfg-client get or rhncfg-client verify fails with
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/rhncfg-client", line 38, in <module>
    sys.exit(Main().main() or 0)
  File "/usr/share/rhn/config_common/rhn_main.py", line 207, in main
    handler.run()
  File "/usr/share/rhn/config_client/rhncfgcli_get.py", line 25, in run
    self.options.exclude)
  File "/usr/share/rhn/config_common/deploy.py", line 42, in deploy_files
    finfo = repository.get_file_info(*args, **kwargs)
  File "/usr/share/rhn/config_client/rpc_cli_repository.py", line 91, in get_file_info
    temp_file, dirs_created = f.process(result, directory=dest_directory)
  File "/usr/share/rhn/config_common/file_utils.py", line 81, in process
    raise Exception, "Corrupt file received: Content checksums do not match!"
Exception: Corrupt file received: Content checksums do not match!

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
rhncfg-client-5.10.55-10.el6sat.noarch
rhncfg-5.10.55-10.el6sat.noarch
rhncfg-actions-5.10.55-10.el6sat.noarch

How reproducible:
Use a macro in a config file, eg. in /etc/postfix/main.cf:
myhostname = {| rhn.system.hostname |}

Steps to Reproduce:
1. add
myhostname = {| rhn.system.hostname |}
to /etc/postfix/main.cf in a config channel.
Probably the same for any other file/macro
2. run rhncfg-client get /etc/postfix/main.cf on the client system
3. 

Actual results:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/rhncfg-client", line 38, in <module>
    sys.exit(Main().main() or 0)
  File "/usr/share/rhn/config_common/rhn_main.py", line 207, in main
    handler.run()
  File "/usr/share/rhn/config_client/rhncfgcli_verify.py", line 73, in run
    (src, file_info, dirs_created) = self.repository.get_file_info(file)
  File "/usr/share/rhn/config_client/rpc_cli_repository.py", line 91, in get_file_info
    temp_file, dirs_created = f.process(result, directory=dest_directory)
  File "/usr/share/rhn/config_common/file_utils.py", line 81, in process
    raise Exception, "Corrupt file received: Content checksums do not match!"
Exception: Corrupt file received: Content checksums do not match!

Expected results:
Config files with macros should be deployed

forgot to mention that it works again after
yum downgrade rhncfg-5.10.55-8.el6sat rhncfg-client-5.10.55-8.el6sat rhncfg-actions-5.10.55-8.el6sat

I could reproduce this also with
rhncfg-5.10.77-1.el6.noarch
rhncfg-client-5.10.77-1.el6.noarch
rhncfg-actions-5.10.77-1.el6.noarch
from http://yum.spacewalkproject.org/nightly-client/RHEL/6/x86_64/
against spacewalk 2.2 (not spacewalk nightly, don't know if any
server part has an impact on this.)

The fix for this problem is going to come in two parts.

Part 1 - client side:
We will release updated rhncfg* packages that cause this exception to not happen. This will ensure that the latest rhncfg works correctly against any version of Red Hat Satellite or RHN Classic.

Part 2 - serer side:
We will release updated spacewalk-backend packages for Satellite that will correctly checksum config files containing macros.

When using updated Satellite with an updated client then checksum validation of the config file contents will happen and work correctly before the config file is deployed. If using only an updated client then config file deployment will happen correctly, however the contents will not be validated (the same behavior as rhncfg-5.10.55-8).

This bug will track part 2.
