I had responded to Jeffrey directly when I meant to reply to the list so
others could benefit...
There is a HowToUpgradeNightly document on the wiki here -
https://github.com/spacewalkproject/spacewalk/wiki/HowToUpgradeNightly
Spacewalk Nightly (and the upcoming 2.7 release) no longer uses the
jpackage repo. There is a step in the upgrade process to remove some of
the packages that come from the jpackage repo (those with ".jpp5") if
you are running on RHEL6. I did the upgrade process the other day and I
ended up removing all the packages that had come from the jpackage repo.
Also note, the upgrade process requires versionlock of quartz if you are
running on Fedora.

I’m not sure where to send this so I figured to the list would be a
good idea. I saw rumblings of a release soon, and I was testing the
upgrade of a Spacewalk 2.6 server to 2.7-nightly on both RHEL 6 and
CentOS 6 VMs; however, I encountered the following error on dependency
checking from a yum upgrade command:

You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest
I believe the error is coming from the requirements specified in the
spec file for spacewalk-java on GitHub
(https://github.com/spacewalkproject/spacewalk/blob/master/java/spacewalk-java.spec),
line 127 reads: “Requires: jakarta-commons-logging < 1.1”. The package
version for jakarta-commons-logging on a Spacewalk 2.6 install on
CentOS 6 is jakarta-commons-logging-1.1-8.jpp5.noarch. In other words,
1.1 < 1.1 fails the yum dependency check, and yum cannot downgrade to
1.0.4 since 1.1 is required for other components.
