root.no:~# ./gen-oss-sat-cert.pl 
Can't locate RHN/DataSource/Channel.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /usr/local/lib64/perl5 /usr/local/share/perl5 /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/lib64/perl5 /usr/share/perl5 .) at ./gen-oss-sat-cert.pl line 9.

Suggestions for improvement: Better testing would reveal this i guess

Additional information: on RHEL 7

Comment 2 Grant Gainey 2015-05-07 15:36:55 UTC
SPACEWALK-2.3 and later removed a lot of the Perl stack.  Two of the tools in the scripts/ directory, alas, depend on Perl RHN::DataSource files. This was missed mostly because scripts/ is "tools that are occasionally useful but not really supported":

gen-oss-sat-cert.pl
devel/perl-db-test.pl

The 'fix' is to rewrite the affected tools in Python (or anything that gets them off of the (removed) Perl code).

In the meantime, a workaround is to execute the desired scripts directly from the SPACEWALK-2.2 branch of a spacewalkproject checkout. I accomplished this on a Fedora-21 install of SPACEWALK-2.3 with the following commands:

===
# Acquire tools
[root@spacewalk] # yum install git perl-TermReadKey
# Clone repository
[root@spacewalk] # git clone https://github.com/spacewalkproject/spacewalk.git
# Switch git to 2.2
[root@spacewalk] # cd spacewalk
[root@spacewalk] # git checkout SPACEWALK-2.2
# Watch gen-oss-sat-cert.pl fail
[root@spacewalk] # perl /root/spacewalk/scripts/gen-oss-sat-cert.pl 
  Can't locate RHN/DataSource/Channel.pm in @INC (you may need to install the RHN::DataSource::Channel module) (@INC contains: /usr/local/lib64/perl5 /usr/local/share/perl5 /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/lib64/perl5 /usr/share/perl5 .) at /root/spacewalk/scripts/gen-oss-sat-cert.pl line 9.

Comment 3 Tomas Lestach 2015-05-11 12:16:20 UTC
Actually, the dependency on RHN::DataSource::Channel was removed already in March ... https://github.com/spacewalkproject/spacewalk/commit/8fc3ed894d644a755df4d25604f814d85a125c50

Use the latest script from the spacewalk.git repository (from the given branch).

Closing.

This BZ closed some time during 2.5, 2.6 or 2.7.  Adding to 2.7 tracking bug.
