If you are using Spacewalk 0.5 and have Cobbler 1.6 installed you have or soon will notice you can't create new kickstart profiles. The main problem is the GUI will error out when trying to complete the step to create the profile.

In order to fix this you should 'yum update' from the Spacewalk repository. You should see a series of new spacewalk* and rhn* packages updated on your machine.

The second half of this provisioning related fix is requiring the latest from cobbler's source repository. You have a few options on how to get this fix:

1) Patch manually:

2) Grab srpm from here:

http://people.fedoraproject.org/~mmccune/rpms/cobbler-1.6.3-1.src.rpm

* rpmbuild -bb cobbler-1.6.3-1.src.rpm
* Install newly built RPM

3) Wait for 1.6.3's release later this week.

feel free to ask questions here or on #spacewalk. I'm happy to assist with the upgrade/patch process.
