Pulp

Hello,

I encountered an issue (see workaround below) with pulp-server:

If one installs pulp-server and populates /etc/pulp/server/plugins.conf.d/yum_importer.json before the first pulp-manage-db execution, a python exception will happen.

Example /etc/pulp/server/plugins.conf.d/yum_importer.json:
{
"num_threads" : 4,
"proxy_host" : "http://192.168.207.1",
"proxy_port" : 3128,
"proxy_username": null,
"proxy_password": null
}

Workaround:

Do not setup /etc/pulp/server/plugins.conf.d/yum_importer.json before the first pulp-manage-db execution.

1. rm /etc/pulp/server/plugins.conf.d/yum_importer.json
