I deleted my EPEL channel and deleted its orphaned packages from Spacewalk.
Then I re-added the channel and did a CLI reposync with...
reposync --arch=x86_64 --repoid=epel -p /var/www/html/pub/CentOS5-x86_64 -d -l
-g -n -q > /dev/null
cd /var/www/html/pub/CentOS5-x86_64/epel
createrepo /var/www/html/pub/CentOS5-x86_64/epel > /dev/null
/usr/bin/spacewalk-repo-sync --channel epel5-x86_64 \
--url
file:///var/www/html/pub/CentOS5-x86_64/epel/ \
--type yum --label epel5-x86_64 > /dev/null
I got a bunch of python errors for what seemed like every package it was
syncing.
Here's an example...

95 out of the 97 packages I have defined in the epel repo conf ended up
orphaned but two were actually assigned to the EPEL channel. Weird. I went
ahead and just added them to EPEL via the spacewalk gui at that point. Easy
enough, but the "channel" picklist under "Manage Software Packages" has a
bizarre ordering of its items now.
It looks like this:
-------------------------------
All managed packages
Packages in no channels
EPEL 5 - x86_64
Centos 5 Base - x86_64
RPMforge EL5 - x86_64
Centos 5 Updates - x86_64
Spacewalk - x86_64
--------------------------------
The EPEL channel DEFINITELY has "Centos 5 Base - x86_64" as its parent channel
so I am mystified why it would look like this or if its even a problem. I was
able to install packages in EPEL on a client just fine so it seems fairly
benign. Also, I have since added an additional 3 packages to my EPEL repo conf
file and run the script but w/o any python errors so it looks like that might
have been a one-time fluke. Anyone have any suggestions?
