Description
We have recently thrown out the validate_duplicate_content function because it was causing problems. See here: https://github.com/pulp/pulp_deb/pull/633
However this is at best a workaround. We should look into re-adding this check, while properly addressing the issue.
See the discussion on the referenced PR for details.
