Hey everyone..
I have a question about the rhn packages that you remove from upstream: rhn-check rhn-client-tools rhnlib rhnsd rhn-setup rhn-setup-gnome yum-rhn-plugin
Are there any plans to include these packages in future releases? It would be really good to have them as we could register CentOS clients to Spacewalk without any problems. Currently a workaround is needed.
Best regards. Siggi

There are plans to build a spacewalk specific repo for CentOS, this along with most of whats required for the spacewalk client-side should make it in there.

On our setup, we have created a separate tools child-channel, containing the following packages from the spacewalk repo:
rhn-setup rhn-check rhn-client-tools rhnlib rhnsd spacewalk-koan rhncfg rhncfg-actions rhncfg-client rhncfg-management yum-rhn-plugin
These are fetched via lftp and pushed to the channel using rhnpush.
An option is to create repodata on it and use spacewalk-repo-sync instead.
Then you can activate the tools child-channel within kickstart profile management (Operating System Sub Tab) which will be visible to the client during kickstart process.
