Hi Although not entirely a spacewalk question, I was hoping the list could offer some pointers relating to the re-creation of channel repo data. I had Satellite 5.2 running on RHEL4. I exported all the channels, installed Satellite 5.2 on RHEL5.3 and imported all the channels...everything works 100%, except for some strange behaviour when running "yum install custom-noarch.rpm". My rpm has various requires and in the past (sat 5.2/RHEL4) yum would resolve both glibc-devel.i386 AND glibc-devel.x86_64, however since installing Satellite 5.2 on RHEL5.3, it no longer resolves/install glibc-devel.x86_64...it only resolves the 32bit. My rpm has the following requires: --------------------------------------------------------- Requires(post): man-tuning >= 2.0 Requires : pam >= 0.99.6.2-3.26.el5, binutils, compat-db, control-center, gcc, gcc-c++, glibc, glibc-common, glibc-devel, libstdc++, libstdc++-devel, make, ksh, xterm, xorg-x11-xauth, libaio, libaio-devel, elfutils-libelf-devel, libXp, libXtst, man-release >= 1.0
## Require a file provided by glibc-devel 32 bit. Requires: /usr/lib/libc.so ## Require a file provided by libXtst 32 bit. Requires: /usr/lib/libXtst.so.6 ## Require a file provided by libXp 32 bit. Requires: /usr/lib/libXp.so.6 I've never experienced any problems running Satellite 5.2 on RHEL4. I've done 100s of new server builds (RHEL5.3) and when they run "yum install custom-noarchrpm", yum would install BOTH 32bit and 64bit versions of glibc-devel. However since installing Satellite 5.2 onto RHEL5.3 (having exported my channels from the old setup) the yum install process no longer resolves/installs glibc-devel (64bit) choosing to only install glibc-devel (32bit) I've tried everything I can think of and have settled on the fact that RHEL5.3 has newer libs/xml/sqlite and I should try and force the Satellite to rebuild all the necessary repodata for my "Gold Build" (cloned/frozen) channels. Is it possible to force a rebuild of channel repo data? Any help would be much appreciated!!!!
