Check to make sure they aren't showing up in the Channels, Manage Software
Channels, Manage Software Packages view under Channel: Packages in no channels.
When you delete a package from all channels, it's orphaned from all channels
but still in the database and file system. If you delete it from the "Packages
in no channels view", it'll be deleted from the database and filesystem.

Subject: [Spacewalk-list] spacewalk-data-fsck not working
Hello all,
I have been playing with Spacewalk 2.5 today and after synching some packages I
did not want, I tried to remove them entirely from Spacewalk. As an example I
have picked the "kernel-doc"
package.
First, I looked for them in the file system:
[root@spacewalk ~]# find /var/satellite -name 'kernel-doc*' -type f
/var/satellite/redhat/1/a2b/kernel-doc/2.6.32-642.4.2.el6/noarch/a2b8e7402c375a214974398310b3337e1b6bfd75732048436b0be84358fc0151/kernel-doc-2.6.32-642.4.2.el6.noarch.rpm
/var/satellite/redhat/1/ffe/kernel-doc/2.6.32-642.el6/noarch/ffe2aea53a54accc295cfc38a66d8341ac7ca8eccbc5b35a8a313ea3865e00fa/kernel-doc-2.6.32-642.el6.noarch.rpm
/var/satellite/redhat/1/daf/kernel-doc/2.6.32-642.1.1.el6/noarch/dafcbcca6b84b865ad490ddd8c0bc769eda11f6291d9e3addbfe7f4ec4dc3b82/kernel-doc-2.6.32-642.1.1.el6.noarch.rpm
/var/satellite/redhat/1/8b4/kernel-doc/2.6.32-642.3.1.el6/noarch/8b48620cc50f738fc906f03bcc4c9180462f1ed83ee090431fcef05184a2263b/kernel-doc-2.6.32-642.3.1.el6.noarch.rpm
Revision 642 is from the CentOS 6 Base channel, while the other three are from
the Updates channel.
I deleted all four of them through the "Manage Software Channels" menu.
From experience with earlier
versions I knew that this would only remove them from the database but not from
the file system.
So next, I ran spacewalk-data-fsck with different parameters:
[root@spacewalk ~]# spacewalk-data-fsck -v Checking if packages from database
are present on filesystem
7094 files scanned
Checking if packages from filesystem are present in database
7094 files scanned
[root@spacewalk ~]# spacewalk-data-fsck -f -r [root@spacewalk ~]#
spacewalk-data-fsck -f -r -v Checking if packages from filesystem are present
in database
7094 files scanned
However, all four RPM files are still around and spacewalk-data-fsck does not
seem to remove them although the -f option should do exactly that, if I read
the man page correctly.
Is this a bug or am I just using it wrong? Thanks!
Kind regards,
Steve
