I did find the disconnect but I am not sure where the package information came from. After closer inspection the package the installer is complaining about (libXent-1.2.2-3.el7.x86_64.rpm) is not in any channel nor is it in my install media. I did not look at the versions close enough. Currently (libXext-1.3.3-3.el7.x86_64.rpm) is the latest version in my parent channel. Where would this package information/repo be generated to give the incorrect version compared to what is in the channel?

The files weren't actually there - they had been moved/disappeared when I discovered a configuration snafu when setting up. When we set up we had added packages to the parent Channel, but then decided to keep the parent channel clear, and only populate child channels. When we cleared the packages out of the parent channel (they still existed in the child channel!), the download would fail and then the install would fail. A re-configuration and confirming that the packages were still in the child channel was sufficient. Doesn't sound like this is your issue - but check to make sure the kickstart is subscribed to the channel the package is in.

I have a kickstart for a CentOS 7 desktop and the packaging.log shows INFO Packaging: populate transaction set ERR packaging: error populating transaction after 10 retries: failure Packages/libXent-1.2.2-3.el7.x86_64.rpm from anaconda: [Errno 256] No more mirrors to try. No packages have been installed. The package in question is in the main channel. Did I miss-configure my kickstart or is there some sort of disconnect with my parent channel? The kickstart was generated through spacewalk and was not created by hand.
