Description Justin Sherrill 2009-11-17 22:42:50 UTC

Due to the fix in this bug: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=527724

the profile.comparPackages() api call doesn't return the correct items.  Create two profiles with the following package profiles:

ProfileA:
Package1
Package2

ProfileB:
Package2
Package3


Then call profile.comparePackages(key, "profilea", "profileb")

You would expect each list to only have one package in it, but each list includes two.

This was uncovered by a unit test.

Comment 2 Garik Khachikyan 2009-12-21 17:23:23 UTC

Actually the method is: kickstart.profile.comparePackages and compares packages of two kickstart profiles.

Comment 5 Garik Khachikyan 2010-01-02 19:56:58 UTC

# VERIFIED

Following version of packages fixed the issue described in bug description:
spacewalk-java-0.5.44-62.el[4,5]sat
spacewalk-java-lib-0.5.44-62.el[4,5]sat
spacewalk-java-config-0.5.44-62.el[4,5]sat
spacewalk-taskomatic-0.5.44-62.el[4,5]sat

Now the method call returns only the missed packages in both kickstart profile's software package list.
