To follow-up on my own question (and for future reference) I was able to
resolve this.
The gen-oss-sat-cert.pl script will only work with Spacewalk .2. I was
able to find a repo that has the rpm's for .2 and grab all the install
files.
Work through all of the dependancy changes (lots of perl modules that
changed names and specific versions required) by adding the RPMForge
repo and key:
rpm -Uhv
http://apt.sw.be/redhat/el5/en/i386/rpmforge/RPMS/rpmforge-release-0.3.6
-1.el5.rf.i386.rpm
http://dag.wieers.com/packages/RPM-GPG-KEY.dag.txt
Just about all of the dependancies are resolved. I did have to manually
download the following rpms in order to get it to work:
perl-Network-IPv4Addr-0.05-13.el5.noarch.rpm
perl-DateTime-0.4305-1.el5.rf.i386.rpm
perl-NOCpulse-Scheduler-1.58.8-1.el5.sw.noarch.rpm
perl-libapreq2-2.09-0.rc2.1.el5.i386.rpm
perl-Apache-Admin-Config-0.94-1.el5.rf.noarch.rpm
libapreq2-2.09-0.rc2.1.el5.i386.rpm
rhn-check-0.4.19-4.el5.noarch.rpm
rhn-client-tools-0.4.19-4.el5.noarch.rpm
rhnlib-2.2.5-1.noarch.rpm
Remove the following:
rhn-custom-info-5.2.0-1.noarch.rpm
rhn-virtualization-common-5.2.0-5.noarch.rpm
rhn-virtualization-guest-5.2.0-5.noarch.rpm
rhn-virtualization-host-5.2.0-5.noarch.rpm
rhn-kickstart-5.2.0-5.noarch.rpm
rhn-kickstart-common-5.2.0-5.noarch.rpm
rhn-kickstart-virtualization-5.2.0-5.noarch.rpm
The only dependancy I wasn't able to resolve was:
SatConfig-installer-3.24.0-7.el5.noarch from
/SatConfig-installer-3.24.0-7.el5.noarch has depsolving problems
--> Missing Dependency: perl(NOCpulse::Scheduler::Event::ProbeEvent)
is needed by package SatConfig-installer-3.24.0-7.el5.noarch
(/SatConfig-installer-3.24.0-7.el5.noarch)
But you can get by without it to get spacewalk .2 installed by doing:
yum localinstall *.rpm --nogpgcheck --skip-broken
Then go ahead and follow the directions at:
https://fedorahosted.org/spacewalk/wiki/CertCreation
To create and sign the entitlement certificate. Take the signed cert to
a freshly installed latest version of spacewalk and replace
/usr/share/spacewalk/setup/spacewalk-public.cert with your new
entitlement certificate file and your good to go.
Hopefully this helps someone else out there. If anyone else is trying
to do this I can try to package up the VM that I did this in (ESX
machine v7 format) and make it available.
