I haven't done much with errata import scripts in Spacewalk but when I last tried it on an older version (1.7 maybe?) there seemed to be an issue with having CentOS/OracleLinux/ScientificLinux in the same Spacewalk. If I recall correctly, it didn't seem possible to keep the Errata cleanly separated between the distros because the package names were the same in many cases.
Can somebody enlighten me on this topic and best practices for Errata with multiple RHEL clones? Has the situation changed or improved in any way with one of the newer errata import scripts? Is there one of these scripts that works best in this situation? I'd like to revisit pulling in errata for these distros in order to provide better info on updates to be applied to my users as we progresses patches up through the tiers but I don't want to make a mess in Spacewalk. I'm currently getting errata for OracleLinux automatically through reposync and so far the OracleLinux errata seem to be doing what I expect (associate only with packages in the Oracle Linux channels). Thanks and regards, --Tony
