Description Justin Sherrill 2009-10-09 14:14:33 UTC 
At least as far back as satellite 5.1 there is an inconsistency in the calculation of errata cache for systems. 

The issue occurs under the following situation:

- A system has package 'foo-1' installed
- Two errata are pushed/created with associated with 'foo-2'
- The system is applicable to both errata

Under some situations both are included in the cache, under others only one is.  The correct behaviour is for both to show up. 

Both show up after:
 satellite-sync, rhn-push, or other large channel changing operations, the taskomatic task handles this correctly

Only one shows up after:
  system registration, channel subscription change, rhn-profile-sync


To fix this would require a schema change due to the fact that errata cache calculation for channel subscriptions is done in a stored proc.

As per EOL Errata:
https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2012-1546.html

This is the End Of Life notification for RHN Satellite Server 5 versions
released to run on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4.

On December 1st, 2012, per the life-cycle support policy, the following
versions of Satellite and Proxy products, released on Red Hat Enterprise
Linux 4, exited Production Phase 2 marking the end of their support by
Red Hat.

RHN Satellite & RHN Proxy:
- 5.0
- 5.1
- 5.2 on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4
- 5.3 on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4


I am closing out this specific bug as CLOSED, since it was tracking a product version, which is now EOL.
