Tested on Satellite 6.3 Snap 19. There was a showstopper right in the start - the "/usr/share/foreman/lib/tasks/repair_repos.rake" is missing in the Sat6.3 Snap 19. 

I have used "http://people.redhat.com/~mmccune/repair_repos_62.rake" mentioned in "https://access.redhat.com/solutions/1453313". I have tried "http://people.redhat.com/~mmccune/repair_repos.rake"

  - Run "foreman-rake katello:generate_repositories_to_fix"
  - Run "foreman-rake katello:generate_pulp_repositories"

Results for repair_repos.rake:

The old "repair_repos.rake" generates the "[400 Bad Request]" errors, no repos were fixed.
The new (I suppose) "repair_repos_62.rake" successfully generates repos.
Still, the main problem is that "repair_repos_62.rake" is missing in the compose.

Upstream bug assigned to jsherril

Ok, my fault - I went by the initial report talking about "katello:generate_pulp_repositories", found out there is no such task, searched for it, found https://access.redhat.com/solutions/1453313 and assumed there was a problem with Sat 6.3. Should have go deeper in the original BZ1375075, as I have missed the comment 11 there. Sorry about that.

Going through steps from BZ1375075 comment #11 on Sat 6.3 Snap 21:
