Description Jan Hutař 2008-05-16 08:49:55 UTC
Description of problem:
When I register a RHEL-5.2 system to Satellite 4.2.2 using activation key, 
packages included in the activation key which are in the external yum repo are 
not installed.

If the key have packages from RHN, they are installed correctly.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Satellite 4.2.2 (rlx-1-14.rhndev.redhat.com)
yum-3.2.8-9.el5.noarch
rhn-setup-0.4.17-8.el5.noarch or rhn-setup-0.4.16-2.el5_1.9.noarch
  (problem is there for both versions, so this is
  not a RHEL-5.1 -> 5.2 regression)


How reproducible:
always


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create activation key on Satellite 4.2.2 like this:
   Description: test-with-package
   Key: test-with-package
   Base Channel: Red Hat Default
   Add-On Entitlements:	[ON] Provisioning
   Universal default: No
   Packages section contains only this: perl-YAML
2. client# yum list perl-YAML
   ...
   Available Packages
   perl-YAML.noarch                      0.62-1.RHEL5           packages
3. client# yum repolist
   ...
   repo id              repo name                                 status
   packages             packages test repository                  enabled
   rhel-i386-server-5   None                                      enabled
4. client# rhnreg_ks --activationkey=test-with-package --force -vvvvv


Actual results:
# rhnreg_ks --activationkey=test-with-package --force -vvvvv
