unable to change [rpm-sys] channel's settings

hi.

i have smart 0.50rc1 on opensuse 10.1.

from cmd line, i init an rmp-sys repo as:

	smart channel --yes --add myDB \
	  type=rpm-sys \
	  name="RPM System" \
	  priority=13 \
	  disabled=no

then, checking:

	% smart channel --show

		...
		[myDB]
		type = rpm-sys
		name = RPM System
		priority = 13
		...
		[rpm-sys]
		type = rpm-sys
		name = RPM System
		...


checking in GUI, in note that ch[rpm-sys] is CREATED, ENABLED & set to
priority[0].

to avoid headaches, i need to DISABLE it.  in GUI, it seems to work.

but, that setting does not seem to be reflected in the "--show"
output; neither priority nor disabled status are shown:

	/root# smart channel --show rpm-sys
	[rpm-sys]
	type = rpm-sys
	name = RPM System
	
	
	/root#


also, settings TO [rpm-sys] @ cmd line seem to have no effect.

	/root# smart channel --set rpm-sys priority=-100 disabled=yes
	
	/root# smart channel --show rpm-sys[rpm-sys]
	type = rpm-sys
	name = RPM System
	
	
	/root#

neither in the cmd line report, NOR in the GUI.

is is not possible to disable/change the default-created [rpm-sys]
channel anywhere other than in the GUI?

all other channels seem to bbehave properly both in gui  at command line.

thanks.
