The alternative is to migrate to Uyuni. https://www.uyuni-project.org
I'm also in the process in migration. If you like to stick with the "traditional client" (like spacewalk is doing) this should work. My error was, that I directly wanted to migrate also from the "traditional client" to the "saltstack" client (with Debian clients) around 1 year ago. That was quite a pain. It was a lot of work till now but the latest version of uyuni works pretty good right now with Debian. No need to do all the workarounds to patch the Packages.gz file with missing headers anymore. Release and InRelease files get generated (of configured). I've tried to run the foreman/katello.... But I failed quite miserably (maybe I didn't try it long enough or was just to stupid... Don't know) You should give it a try.

Where did we read that Spacewalk will be done? Also, is there a consolidated upstream project similar to Satellite 6? Because from what I can see SuSE and Oracle (for their unbearable Linux) use Spacewalk or a similar structure, or am I mistaken? We used to use spacewalk much more than we do now, but it does need to be caught up in patching.
