From your logs, it appears that createrepo isn't present on your
installation. Previously this was not a requirement (for instance,
cobbler might be installed on EL 4?) though it should be. What OS are
you importing from?
Hmmm, I do have createrepo 0.9.5 installed. Is that version good
enough? I'm running Fedora 9.
FYI, you can do "cobbler distro remove --name=foo
--recursive" to
achieve the same effect as the two (or more) removes.
The import might also be unhappy because you still have content in
/var/www/cobbler/ks_mirror corresponding to the previous import.
I had definitely deleted the whole /var/www/cobbler directory. Is
there another place that cobbler keeps any state information about
things I've imported?
Thanks,
Tim
