Can you check from the client with "apt-get", if the package "python-wadllib"
is really an upgrade candidate?
Might be an error, that spacewalk "thinks" it is an update for the server but
it isn't.

Betreff: [Spacewalk-list] help with ubuntu16 client and spacewalk2.9 server
Hello,
I'm trying to get an Ubuntu 16 xenial client setup to do updates from a
spacewalk 2.9 server installed on CentOS7. I am able to register the client,
install and remove, or update a single package thru the spacewalk web
interface. But when I try to update all of the packages on (choose system -
Software - Packages tab - Upgrade tab - choose Select All - Upgrade packages -
confirm), then run "rhn_check -vvv" on the client, it fails with:
...
Apt-Spacewalk: Updating sources.list
D: Failed to update package['python-wadllib', '1.3.2', '3ubuntu0.16.04.1', '',
'all-deb']
D: Sending back response(1, 'update failed', {})
D: do_call packages.checkNeedUpdate('rhnsd=1',){}
D: Called refresh_list
Updating package profile
D: rpcServer: Calling XMLRPC registration.welcome_message
D: rpcServer: Calling XMLRPC registration.update_packages
D: local action status: (0, 'package list refreshed', {})
D: rpcServer: Calling XMLRPC registration.welcome_message
I could use the web interface to update the single package that it says it is
failing on.
I used the steps listed in
https://www.redhat.com/archives/spacewalk-list/2019-January/msg00006.html to
get this setup. I installed the 2.8 spacewalk client referenced in the thread,
and I signed the repos per the documentation at
http://www.devops-blog.net/spacewalk/gpg-signing-apt-repository-in-spacewalk. I
checked, and I think the necessary patches referenced in that document are
already the client and server. I used spacewalks spacewalk-repo-sync command to
sync the Ubuntu repositories. However, I did not run the script to setup
multiarch headers that is referenced in
https://www.redhat.com/archives/spacewalk-list/2018-September/msg00072.html. Is
that still needed? The documentation for Ubuntu and spacewalk isn't that great,
some is for older versions of spacewalk, so I'm piecing things together and I'm
not sure what is still needed and what is not, of if I installed things
correctly.
Any suggestions are appreciated.
Thanks!
Nicole
