From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.0rc1) Gecko/20020424 Description of problem: Cisco is using Proxy server. Published new errata associated with custom channels and packages. These packages are in the proxy server. After publishing the errata, if I go to the details page of that errata then I see the following message under the verification heading: Verification: Cisco Linux: Package no longer available envoy-1.71-1.noarch.rpm Package no longer available cisco-EMPsysedge-4.0.2-1.i386.rpm Cisco Linux (beta): Package no longer available envoy-1.71-1.noarch.rpm envoy-1.71-1.noarch.rpm and cisco-EMPsysedge-4.0.2-1.i386.rpm are the package associated with this errata.

they are on the proxy, but not the central RHN server. we've no way of serving the packages. if the proxy tools can populate a field in the database to signify packages present on the proxy, we can change this display. assigning to misa.
We could use the indication that the path is null. If we had a flag 'this package resides on a proxy', next question we'll have to ask is 'which proxy', and then we'd have to somehow correlate the errata editor with the proxy. I'd go with the simple case (i.e. null path) for now, the complexity for the alternative solution is to be determined. Chip?
robin, can we do something about this?
Hrm - this is an old one. I seem to recall doing something along these lines a while ago, but I don't have a proxy to test it with handy.
