Duh.  I forgot to clean the yum cache on the consumer.  That took care of it.  
Now... off to get some coffee to kickstart the brain.  Thanks again.

Joel

hmm i would have expected the metadata to refresh any filtered packages. Try 
these,

* Clear your yum cache on the consumer and try yum check-update?

* Also check your /var/lib/pulp/repos/rh5-prd/*.rpm and make sure there is no 
mysql pkg symlinked here. If there is, then probably blacklist filter is not 
working as expected to being with.

By "metadata update" do you mean execute the generate_metadata on the cloned 
repo after the clone process is complete?  If so, that isn't clearing the 
package from the cloned repo's package set.

I agree Joel. For now we'll go ahead and do the metadata update until we figure 
out an efficient way of updating package metadata for a subset of packages. The 
side effect of this change would be your clones might run a bit longer. I 
opened a bug for this issue here 
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=783485 . i'll try to look into it 
soon.

Prad,

After I deleted the master and clone repos and recreated them, that is the 
result I get.  I think I had some corruption earlier.  It would be nice to see 
a repo generation for clones.  One, I'm very apprehensive to schedule a full 
package set update in production when yum update shows it's going to update 
packages we want locked.  Two, it can be time consuming to parse through a 
package update log for a few hundred machines when it contains false positives. 
 Thoughts?

Thank you,

Joel

Hey Joel:

This is what I think is happening, Your original repo has no filter, it still 
has a reference to the package. A clone operation does not regenerate the 
metadata and it reuses the parents metadata and that probably why you still see 
that via yum check-update. The package is still blacklisted, and will not be 
served. Try installing the update and see if pulp is serving the package. You 
should get a 404. We could trigger a repo generation in case a clone operation 
uses filters. May be thats the solution to keep the filesystem + db in sync 
with metadata in case of filters. The reason we dont currently generate 
metadata is to keep the clone as close to the parent as possible and also to 
make the clone fast(as reop generation can be expensive)

I'm having an issue with a repo filter carrying over to the consumer.  This 
repo is a clone of rh5-live, without the filter.  I've verified the packages 
have been removed but they still show up under yum check-update and are 
available via yumdownloader from a client bound to the rh5-prd repo.  And the 
consumer shows the number of packages available higher than the number of 
packages in the rh5-prd repo.  Any ideas?
