Description

Originating community thread: https://community.theforeman.org/t/katello-4-0-pulp3-no-erratas-anymore/23291/

With Pulp 3, when filtering out a package from EPEL 7 in a content view, all of the errata (from all repos in the content view) are filtered out as well. So far I haven't found another non-EPEL repository that this happens to. I tried filtering a package from the large RHEL 7 OS RPMs repo, and the errata stayed. It seems then that it might not be a problem of size, since EPEL 7 is pretty large too. I didn't try EPEL 8, but the user is reporting the same issue with it.

This issue occurs with all versions of Katello that have supported yum content on Pulp 3.

This issue is occurring due to EPEL including errata that have packages that exist in different repositories. For the errata to exist in a content view version with filters, Katello must have all of its packages indexed. We've addressed this here: https://projects.theforeman.org/issues/33254

However, there is another bug that is likely causing this. One select erratum in EPEL 7 has these packages:

[20] pry(main)> ::Katello::Repository.find(151).errata.first.packages
=> [#<Katello::ErratumPackage:0x0000000010f9f550 id: 30406, erratum_id: 3549, nvrea: "mdns-scan-0.5-1.el7.ppc64le", name: "mdns-scan", filename: "mdns-scan-0.5-1.el7.ppc64le.rpm">,
 #<Katello::ErratumPackage:0x0000000010f9f140 id: 30403, erratum_id: 3549, nvrea: "mdns-scan-0.5-1.el7.src", name: "mdns-scan", filename: "mdns-scan-0.5-1.el7.src.rpm">,
 #<Katello::ErratumPackage:0x0000000010f9ead8 id: 30404, erratum_id: 3549, nvrea: "mdns-scan-0.5-1.el7.x86_64", name: "mdns-scan", filename: "mdns-scan-0.5-1.el7.x86_64.rpm">,
 #<Katello::ErratumPackage:0x0000000010f9e588 id: 30407, erratum_id: 3549, nvrea: "mdns-scan-debuginfo-0.5-1.el7.ppc64le", name: "mdns-scan-debuginfo", filename: "mdns-scan-debuginfo-0.5-1.el7.ppc64le.rpm">,
 #<Katello::ErratumPackage:0x0000000010f9e0d8 id: 30405, erratum_id: 3549, nvrea: "mdns-scan-debuginfo-0.5-1.el7.x86_64", name: "mdns-scan-debuginfo", filename: "mdns-scan-debuginfo-0.5-1.el7.x86_64.rpm">]

Note the source RPM in the list. Currently, we don't check for SRPMs in `filter_errata_by_pulp_href`. If an erratum has an SRPM in its package list, it'll never be listed. We need to check for these SRPMs as well.
