Description J.C. Molet 2013-06-25 13:19:32 UTC
Description of problem:
In the preferences dialog in subscription-manager-gui, the option to set your auto-attach preference doesn't seem to do anything.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
[root@jmolet-vm0 ~]# subscription-manager version
server type: Red Hat Subscription Management
subscription management server: 0.8.15-1
subscription-manager: 1.8.11-1.git.12.6650553.el5
python-rhsm: 1.8.12-1.git.0.d747a65.el5


How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. start up subscription-manager-gui
2. Register to your friendly neighborhood candlepin
3. go to System > Preferences
4. uncheck the auto-attach preference to disabled
5. close the preferences dialog
6. go to System > Preferences to reopen the dialog

Actual results:
Nothing changes, the supposedly disabled preference stays checked as enabled.
toggling this switch changes nothing on the consumer.

Expected results:
The change persists and updates the consumer.
