There are a lot of differences - I'd guess they did a full yum update

Does the template expose any kind of package manifest that you can diff
against the other machine's template then?
That being said, I have to admit to feeling as though the spacewalk
Spacewalk team, in offering a package for CentOS 5.2, and *not*
noting things that were needed for different versions of that, and
yum not automagically determining the dependencies - I remember the
full d/l for spacewalk was something like 267 packages - leaves me at
the point of wondering if I need to build from source, and not
trusting a binary release.
Do you really feel that way given that the problem you are running into
is far from being widespread?
I don't think any special things needed for 5.2 were noted because there
aren't any. I do believe though the install documentation does recommend
an @Base install to start with, and I am not confident that is what your
template provides. If you didn't install the Spacewalk version that is
running, then can you be confident it wasn't installed with @Base as the
docs likely recommend?
(I say likely recommend because I know that's in the Satellite
documentation but I'm not as familiar with the Spacewalk docs)
