Description James Bowes 2007-08-13 18:42:51 UTC 
On the server side when passed the --sources option, rhn-delete-package-internal
looks up the pkgid for the binary package, rather than the source one, then
operates on that in the source package table, deleting a different package, in
effect.
Comment 1 Dennis Gregorovic 2007-08-30 16:29:21 UTC 
Is there an ETA for when the fix will land on stage?
Comment 2 James Bowes 2007-11-01 18:26:34 UTC 
To test:
* identify an rpm with an associated source rpm.
* run rhn-delete-package-internal --sources --package=package-version-release.arch
* verify (via webui or up2date source download) that the source rpm is deleted.

Verified using a2ps-4.13b-28.i386.rpm in Q A- it has no src rpm anymore
Comment 4 Grant Gainey 2007-11-14 21:05:04 UTC 
With dgregor's help, verified in STAGE
