UPDATED: I found this affected just RHEL 6 workstations connected to a version 5.7 disconnected satellite server

For those of us still running some Satellite Servers on version 5.7, you may find the following issue if you use the following incremental channel
This affects RHEL 6 WORKSTATION clients that are joined to a disconnected Satellite Server running Satellite version 5.7

    Base channel date is 2016-05-11
    Incremental set is 2016-05-11 through 2016-10-04 (no longer on Red Hat's download list).

If you happened to have used that incremental patch set from 2016-10-04, you will find RHEL6 clients fail on the avahi-ui rpm. The work-around I found that fixed the issue was to manually remove the avahi-ui rpm (and it took 2 dependency-related rpms with it), then do a yum install of avahi-ui and gnome-disk-utility.

While the above actions are not painful, it's kinda bummer that quite often with whatever incremental set I download, there's some random rpm that we often get this with, I'd say 60% of the time or so.

I'd recommend Red Hat have at least one disconnected satellite server and test the ISO channel dumps against that disconnected satellite server in a lab within Red Hat Inc. someplace.

There are a number of salient customers of Red Hat that use disconnected satellite servers (not connected to the public internet, they use ISO channel incremental dumps --this link requires satellite subscription) in dvd iso files at that link) where it would be good to test this prior to it being released. My 2 cents. We found this in our test/development network satellite server against RHEL 6 workstations

While we can certainly do a work-around of this using the yum remove and corresponding yum install, we get this sort of bit for a random rpm at least more that 60% of the time with incremental patch updates.

I recommend Red Hat have at least one disconnected satellite server and test the ISO channel dumps against that disconnected satellite server in a lab within Red Hat Inc. someplace.

We can not be the only entity facing this issue. There are a lot of agencies that have disconnected satellite servers and use ISO channel dumps, and this affects them as well.

Just an fyi for those using disconnected satellite servers and for Red Hat folks in the satellite dept.

Thanks much
