Thank you Michael!
One more thing: filtering is working great now, I can filter what I dont
use except one example:
I am applying filters to
"http://centos.alt.ru/repository/centos/6/x86_64/"; repository. Filtering
is working great except one package set - mysql-*
here is my filter definition:
spacecmd {SSM:0}> repo_listfilters "External yum repo - CentOS 6 Alt.RU
x86_64"
-bind-*
-httpd-*
-lighttpd-*
-mod_ssl-*
-memcached-*
-nagios-*
-openssh-*
-php-*
-postfix-*
-squid-*
-libssh2-devel-*
-libssh2-*
-postfix-*
-pam_mysql-*
-mysql-*
but after using spacewalk-repo-sync the mysql-* packages are still synced:
# spacewalk-repo-sync --type=yum --channel="clone-centos6-x86_64-alt-ru-mod"
Repo URL: http://centos.alt.ru/repository/centos/6/x86_64/
Packages in repo: 269
Packages passed filter rules: 145
Packages already synced: 0
Packages to sync: 145
those packages are still included:
mysql-libs-5.5.34-1.el6.x86_64 The shared libraries required for
MySQL clients Unknown
mysql-plugin-pinba-5.5.34-1.el6.x86_64 Pinba storage engine Unknown
mysql-server-5.5.34-1.el6.x86_64 The MySQL server and related files
Unknown
mysql-test-5.5.34-1.el6.x86_64 The test suite distributed with
MySQL Unknown
question: is this caused by dependency problem with some other - synced
- package from same repo? or something else is causing this problem?
thank you

Hi Michal,
Well, I have to agree it isn't very well documented. There's a small hint in
API doc
https://your_spacewalk_fqdn/rhn/apidoc/handlers/ChannelSoftwareHandler.jsp#addRepoFilter
which says
string sessionKey
string label - repository label
struct - filter_map
string "filter" - string to filter on
string "flag" - + for include, - for exclude
In spacecmd you do this by prepending the flag to filter, e.g.
spacecmd {SSM:0}> repo_addfilters 'My CentOS 5 (i386)' '+libreoffice*'
spacecmd {SSM:0}> repo_addfilters 'My CentOS 5 (i386)' '-libreoffice-langpack-*'
spacecmd {SSM:0}> repo_addfilters 'My CentOS 5 (i386)'
'+libreoffice-langpack-en'
spacecmd {SSM:0}> repo_addfilters 'My CentOS 5 (i386)'
'+libreoffice-langpack-sk'
spacecmd {SSM:0}> repo_listfilters 'My CentOS 5 (i386)'
+libreoffice*
-libreoffice-langpack-*
+libreoffice-langpack-en
+libreoffice-langpack-sk
which will include only libreoffice packages with en and sk langpacks and no
other langpacks.
% In principle I wanted to exclude some packages from specifed repo,
% because they are in conflict (modifed versions of existing packages)
% with packages in existing CentOS base/updates/epel repos.
So just couple of '-conflicting_package1', '-conflicting_package2', ... should
do the job.
% thank you!
