I was able to process the 2012-January file using the 0.2 version of the errata script. Few steps required. I changed my channel type to sha256 for both my base and update channel, I did a simple `sed -ie 's/CentOS 6/CentOS 6 x86_64' 2012-January.txt`
So there isn't a valid reason why spacewalk search "can't" work.
