Description Pradeep Kilambi 2008-07-25 18:25:54 UTC 
Description of problem:

If we skip the end date while doing an incremental export, it computes a date
(time.strftime) that the requested channel doesn't fall under. We should not
care about the range for the channel itself as its given. The range params
should only be executed for content of the channels such as pkgs,kickstarts,
errata etc.

Steps to Reproduce:

rhn-sat-export with no end-date

Additional info:
fix needs to be in iss.py while extracting the channel info

Lists Packages_short, Packages XML and RPM File info from a RHNS Export Directory

Here's a really poorly hacked shell script that prints out a table of ...

Dir:  00-99)
Num:  1[00]-999[99]
Time (Date):  From packages_short XML file (_not_ RPM buildtime)
Packages XML:  checks if it exists
RPM File:  checks if it exists
Name:  extracted from the RPM file
Comment 3 Bryan J Smith 2008-07-25 20:53:54 UTC 
We're also seeing message:
  "Error: Channel rhel-x86_64-as-4 not found"

If we pass an --end-date=############## parameter that is
- Older (farther back) than _latest_ set of errata/packages for the channel(s)

E.g., we have a channel that was last updated on July 13-14th.  Anything with a
date mid-day July 13th (or before) is failing.
