If I attempt to delete a content view version, either from the CLI or GUI, it takes a long time to start, and typically times out in the CLI, and leads to the delete confirmation screen in the GUI to sit with an hourglass forever.
When this happens, the dynflow task shows as planning/pending, and there is a single 'ruby' process running, using 100% of one CPU core. If this is left, it eventually stops doing this, and the task starts and does eventually complete.
There was a suggestion that there was a problem with lack of entropy on the system - I installed and run haveged, and while initially it seemed like it could have helped, it seems that patience was what really helped - it just takes a *long* time to delete a content view version.
is this supposed to be reproducible even on empty, non-promoted content-views?
i was unable to reproduce this on
# rpm -qa satellite
satellite-6.2.4-1.0.el7sat.noarch
# rpm -qa katello
katello-3.0.0-14.el7sat.noarch
`
# hammer content-view publish --id 3
# hammer content-view version list --content-view-id 3

# hammer content-view version delete --id 5 --content-view-id 3
Could not delete the content view:
Cannot delete version while it is in environments: Library
# hammer content-view remove-from-environment --id 3 --lifecycle-environment-id 1

Could you provide more specific steps to reproducte the issue if mine are not correct?
Roman, to test, I'd recommend doing a 'Remove' via the UI of a content view version that contains a lot of data (e.g. packages, errata...etc). The issue that was observed was that it took a very long time to 'plan' the removal task as that step would actually destroy a lot of the data that had been indexed as part of that version within Katello.
