Hi, Martin. I would suggest splitting out such functionality. The spacewalk-repo-sync functionality would be exactly as it is today, simply add support to use it for Channels with .deb Repositories.
The other functionality that you mention might be a new script or some parts of it might make more sense to be covered in the pre-defined channel sets. -- Lamont Peterson Sr. Systems Administrator | Unix Systems Operations Office: 801.442.6497 [cid:image002.jpg@01CEC98D.A33033E0]<http://intermountainhealthcare.org/> From: Martin Juhl <m...@casalogic.dk<mailto:m...@casalogic.dk>> Reply-To: "spacewalk-devel@redhat.com<mailto:spacewalk-devel@redhat.com>" <spacewalk-devel@redhat.com<mailto:spacewalk-devel@redhat.com>> Date: Monday, January 20, 2014 at 1:48 AM To: "spacewalk-devel@redhat.com<mailto:spacewalk-devel@redhat.com>" <spacewalk-devel@redhat.com<mailto:spacewalk-devel@redhat.com>> Subject: Re: [Spacewalk-devel] Ubuntu Sync Script Hi Michael (and all others) I have close to no experience writing python code.. ( I might learn in the future), so I hope that someone else will take the job of rewriting this script... Besides of that, I'm not sure that all of the functionality of the script can be merged into spacewalk-repo-sync.. my script also contains functionality to check which distributions and sub-channels are available from Ubuntu.. Is there anything else I can do to help people rewrite/use this script for now???

But it works, and thats the main reason I'm releasing it... Your sync script looks good. If you really think about rewriting it into python I'd point you to spacewalk-repo-sync command. It is currently able to download packages only from yum repos but you can extend it with new repo plugin (see ./backend/satellite_tools/repo_plugins in spacewalk.git). So you have to write code only for fetching package list and packages itself and rest of the infrastructure is already there.
