Hi,

we're looking for something a bit WSUS-like for Debian (and Ubuntu) to roll out 
updates etc on our Debian- and Ubuntu-based infrastructure. We've already tried 
Landscape (the licensing fees are not economically for us) and Spacewalk (which 
would be perfect, if it would correctly recognize all packages..)

btw, what specific problem did you had with Spacewalk ? it seems to
fit your needs...
Spacewalk would be perfect, it fits most of our list. But it seems that Spacewalk has some problems when it comes to correctly managing debian/ubuntu packages. When a system reports his currently installed packages to Spacewalk, Spacewalk stores the list and tries to "link" each reported package against known package metadata from the official repos.. But on some packages (58 of 326 on a new system) Spacewalk lists them as unknown and is not able to include them in update checks.
Hope my problem description is not too confusing :)
