Description Sandro Mathys 2009-08-10 11:54:46 UTC 
Description of problem:
If one creates a new channel with an associated yum repo but leaves the repo-label empty (because it has no *, because it's not mandatory w/o a repo url) he receives the error msg "invalid channel summary" instead of "invalid repo label" or even better "repo label must be provided if a repo url is given".

Additionally, it's not clear what the repo-label is for, since there seems to be a 1:1 relationship between a channel and a yum repo which would mean that the channel-label is enough.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
latest from the 0.6 repo

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. create a new channel
2. provide a repo-url but no repo-label
3. click the submit button
  
Actual results:
"invalid channel summary"

Expected results:
"repo label cannot be empty"

fixed in spacewalk master.  Error now should state:

"A repo label is required if providing a yum repository url."

if the repo label is missing (and a yum repository url is provided).

The repo label was provided because down the road we intend to support multiple repo's per channel, so it was meant to differentiate them.  Currently it is fairly meaningless.
