No problem. I suppose this is an expected behavior. Packages are
part of an errata. Un-publishing errata should remove the
packages from the channel as well. On the other hand if you have
these packages in different channel (as a package, not as a part
of the errata), they should not be deleted from this second
channel when you delete the erratum.

Channel1
  Errata1
    Package1
Channel1
  Package1

So, deleting erratum Errata1 should not remove Package1 from
Channel2. If this happens, that is IMO a bug.

Regards,
Jan
