Description James Bowes 2008-03-13 16:20:38 UTC 
The db allows for NULL descriptions, but lookupchannel doesn't. and so things
will explode when marshalling to xmlrpc. need to say channel.descrption or ""
Comment 1 Amy Owens 2008-03-13 16:49:27 UTC 
since this is defined-- moved into accepted backlog

Comment 4 James Bowes 2008-04-21 12:23:16 UTC 
To Test:
 * use sqlplus to find a channel with an empty description, ie
   select * from rhnchannel where description is NULL
 * use rhn-manage-channel to 'list' that channel
   rhn-manage-channel-internal --list --label some-channel
   Details should be displayed, rather than a traceback.

Looks good in dev, and qa, and stage, and production....
