Ok, so I pulled my head out about this enough to realize what you meant, Jeff… I was able to get beyond the part of the issue where it couldn’t find:
rhn-setup rhn-client-tools rhn-check But… it then complained about missing dependencies for some python-* packages… python-dmidecode python-gudev python-hwdata BUT… these packages are *IN* the base channel… so, how can they be missing? That makes exactly NO sense to me. The installer can select and use packages from the child channel… but NOT the base channel? Colour me confused… Andy From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Speagle, Andy Sent: Friday, October 9, 2015 7:01 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [Spacewalk-list] CentOS 7 install missing RHN utilities - Spacewalk 2.4 I do see the packages at the end of the %packages section… and I do have a child channel with those packages included in the activation key for the kickstart profile… though it’s not specifically suffixed with “-client” … so I’m not sure what I’m missing at this point, I guess. Thanks!

These pkgs are installed on my system (were with 2.3 as well). Do you see the missing packages at the end of %packages in the 'Kickstart File' section? And you have the -client child channel enabled for that profile?

Can someone clue me in on how to do either one or the other? Thanks!
