Hi BloodyIron,

The new Global Registration is soon going to be replacing this host registration workflow. We'll be putting this issue on the backlog due to this, but pull requests are always welcome.

Thanks!

What milestone is that Global Registration workflow change slated for? I am not yet familiar with it. Also, can you point me to any documentation on the topic that exists? Sounds like a good direction! And I'd like to know more! :D

Since Katello Server and Client now actually support deb type content and repos, it really would be nice if we could see the Foreman+Katello environment automatically generate the katello-ca-consumer packages in deb format, not just rpm. It's a real PITA to have to convert rpm to deb whenever a new version is created, and automation would be appreciated here.

Any chance we can see that come to fruition in the near future?

Thanks!

I don't see debuild nor alien on RHEL repo. What do you use to convert ?

Also note that katello-ca-consumer-latest.noarch.rpm contain only katello-rhsm-consumer so you could curl file | sh (or maybe in two step if you want to check for checksum)
