Description of problem: When running a spacewalk-repo-sync -c whatever-channel and more than 1013 rpms needs to be synced, a crash occures. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): spacewalk-backend-tools-1.3.57-1.el5 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Add a new repository with >1013 rpms to sync 2. On the CLI run spacewalk-repo-sync -c whatever-channel 3. Wait for crash 4. Repeat step 2 5. Wait for crash again (in case that still more than 1013 rpms are to be synced) 6. Repeat step 2 until you have less than 1013 rpms to sync Actual results: [root@spacewalk reposync]# spacewalk-repo-sync -c epel-x86_64 Channel has no URL associated [root@spacewalk reposync]# spacewalk-repo-sync -c epel6-x86_64 Repo http://mirror.switch.ch/ftp/mirror/epel/6/x86_64/ has 5767 packages. 1/4754 : emacs-bigloo-3.3a-2.5.el6-0.noarch [snip] 1013/4754 : apcupsd-gui-3.14.8-2.el6-0.x86_64 1014/4754 : perl-Module-Signature-0.66-1.el6-0.noarch python: ./rpmio_internal.h:502: c2f: Assertion `fd && fd->magic == 0x04463138' failed.

It's been fixed some time ago, see https://www.redhat.com/archives/spacewalk-list/2011-February/msg00115.html.

Tested with latest nightly, seems indeed fixed. Sorry for the noise.
