I follow instruction on this website for katello 3.4, but i found from begin a lot of issue.

First asking me package not in repository, then i had to found this package in different repos, and configure that, and sometimes download in Local and install.

Please unset the following environment variables before running the installer: http_proxy, https_proxy, ssl_cert_file
Your system does not meet configuration criteria

Hi,
I just went over the installation steps at [1]. I executed on a clean CentOS 7:

yum -y localinstall
http://fedorapeople.org/groups/katello/releases/yum/3.4/katello/el7/x86_64/katello-repos-latest.rpm yum -y localinstall
http://yum.theforeman.org/releases/1.15/el7/x86_64/foreman-release.rpm yum -y localinstall
https://yum.puppetlabs.com/puppetlabs-release-pc1-el-7.noarch.rpm yum -y localinstall
http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-7.noarch.rpm yum -y install foreman-release-scl
yum -y update
yum -y install katello

and all the packages resolved for me. You mentioned some packages seemed to be missing, which ones? What additional repos did you configure to get these packages? If you configured the nightlies to get additional packages, then it is probably the cause why the packages from nightly are being installed on update, but without knowing what command you executed exactly, it is only my best guess. I would recommend going over the installation steps again on a clean system,
it will probably be quicker that trying to clean the existing system.

Hope this helps,
O.

Wow. This is the new quickstart. A thing of beauty. Brutal, but beautiful.

"The antidote to apocalypticism is *apocalyptic civics*. Apocalyptic civics is the insistence that we cannot ignore the truth, nor should we panic about it. It is a shared consciousness that our institutions have failed and our ecosystem is collapsing, yet we are still here — and we are creative agents who can shape our destinies. Apocalyptic civics is the conviction that the only way out is through, and the only way through is together. "
