- rhn-upgrade should not be on ISO - not sure if that was issue. 

Sounds like 'rpm -e rhn-upgrade' would work around the issue short term. 

The perl scripts packaged within rhn-upgrade may need to be re-written to not say

use Sniglets::SatInstall

or the spacewalk-sniglets package has a clear provides. 

Do not know path of resolution here :) 

Milan - can you figure this one out? 

Thanks,
Cliff

rhn-upgrade package is not included in the Satellite ISO, but it needs to
be installed prior to the upgrade (usually from a satellite channel) so that
we can actually start the upgrade (otherwise the installer will complain
and bail on us).

What happened here is that Sniglets::SatInstall module was removed from spacewalk
git after Spacewalk 0.1 was released, since it was not being used anywhere
in Spacewalk. We still need one simple routine from this module to be able to run
rhn-load-config.pl contained in rhn-upgrade. The routine (split_dsn) is simple
enough to be included directly into rhn-load-config.pl

This is still a problem when trying to yum install the rhn-upgrade package on a RHEL5 box running Sat 520.
