Description of problem: Recently I got a traceback mail from spacewalk generated during registration and the traceback mail contain info about request rhnreg_ks did. One of the fields is "Headers passed in: -> user-agent: rhn.rpclib.py/$Revision$" which do not seem correct. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): rhnlib-2.5.51-1.el5 or rhnlib-2.5.22-12.el6.noarch How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Check which headers rhnreg_ks sends to the server when calling registration.new_system (I have provoked the traceback by attempting to register system when I do not have enough entitlements for that - this seems to be a different error which will be probably reported as different bug) Actual results: Exception reported from <fqdn> Time: Tue Mar 27 20:52:44 2012 Exception type spacewalk.common.rhnException.rhnException Exception while handling function registration.new_system Request object information: URI: /XMLRPC Remote Host: <fqdn> Server Name: <fqdn>:443 Headers passed in: Accept-Encoding: identity Content-Length: 1612 Host: <fqdn>:443 content-type: text/xml user-agent: rhn.rpclib.py/$Revision$ x-client-version: 1 x-info: RPC Processor (C) Red Hat, Inc (version $Revision$) x-rhn-client-capability: caneatCheese(1)=1,packages.extended_profile(2)=1,reboot.reboot(1)=1,packages.verify(1)=1,packages.runTransaction(1)=1,packages.update(2)=2,packages.rollBack(1)=1 x-rhn-transport-capability: follow-redirects=3 x-transport-info: Extended Capabilities Transport (C) Red Hat, Inc (version $Revision$) x-up2date-version: 1.7.14-1.el5 [...] Specifically check "user-agent", "x-info" and "x-transport-info" which have "$Revision$" in it. Expected results: IMO that string should be expanded into some version or number.
Fixed in Spacewalk master, e7c6e67a859d6c7d8bb8fe61473abe30b559bc19.
