AW: Bootstrap-Repo in uyuni

[Hebler, Jan, Vodafone DE]

Hi

To be honest i'm a bit surprised by the lack of support for the beta in the bootstrap-descriptions. Maybe the best Thing would be to talk with the susemanager/uyuni-People so they update the susemanager-utils package in order to support 15.3 more "official". All I have done there was some kind of "reverse-engineering".

Regards,

Hi,

Thanks for the tips!
I’m not sure if this should be documented on the SLE side but maybe it could be in the Uyuni one?
What do you think?
