Comment (by smooge):
The issue is that it is coming across that you are asking is that Fedora
and EPEL change how they have been doing titles for 8->10 years because
you have a 255 character limit. So while RHEL fits into that, its upstream
does not and has not. Getting it changed will be a lot more yak shaving
and politics than using a quick fix.
A quick fix could be to have if the title is larger than 255 characters to
use the shorter erratum ID, a longer fix would be to change the title from
255 to something larger. A third fix would be to recommend not using
Katello for Fedora or EPEL.
