@juliogonzalez Hola Julio

Hello,

Not really. This is one of the issues I found during my tests in the last Hackweek, and is one of the reasons (not the only one) openSUSE MicroOS is not yet added to Uyuni as "supported". Maybe open option would be somehow ignoring the product package for Aeon so it's not present in the synced repositories... or CLM (Content Lifecycle Management).

You can see the outcome of my research at https://github.com/uyuni-project/uyuni/wiki/openSUSE-Tumbleweed-and-openSUSE-MicroOS-for-Uyuni (I also presented it during one of the community hours.

This is in fact (part) of a feature requests, not a bug.

On the bright side the reposync pruning feature got merged since my hackweek research
