I have deleted the Centos4 i386 channels since I only had 6 servers registered on this. I have also deleted about 3000 orphaned packages on spacewalk under "Manage Software Packages" but I still cannot load newer packages on Centos 5 channel. Its as if the delete did not free up the DB space and it is still on 4GB Anything else I can try? I wanted to delete the Centos4 x86_64 bit channel as well but if it has no effect then its pointless.
