The problem from what I’ve been able to dig (I’m no pythonista) is in

Is it possible that it’s choking on sha1 checksum types? I did some poking and on looking at the Checksum Type’s on my repos most of them are sha256, but there’s a few that are sha1
It looks like this is the proper traceback formatted, thanks @indygwyn that should help quite a bit.

let me bring it up with the pulp team and see if its a known issue
@indygwyn The pulp team did have one question, do you remember if you deleted any Repositories or Content View Versions in between the first migration you ran and when you started getting this error? An answer of ‘I don’t remember but its very likely’ is perfectly okay
It’s a probably yes for me too, it’s been awhile though. I’ve updated 2 Katello’s from 3.14 to 3.18 in the last month and I do like to clean up things so there’s less to process during the upgrades
Just a followup, I hand patched in the fix and I get past this issue now, but stuck on the corrupted rpms problem that there’s already a Bug filed on target for 3.18.2, so I guess I’ll wait for that update to finish my migration
