Roman Shaposhnik commented on WHIRR-694:
----------------------------------------

Attached patch fully generalizes the discovery of puppet. The newly introduced 
puppet.repourl property can be set to either a repo file/list file/repo rpm 
package/repo deb package hence the following would all work with the latest 
puppet:

{noformat}
# The best place to get Puppet for Ubuntu/Debian is from the Puppet labs repo
puppet.repourl=http://apt.puppetlabs.com/puppetlabs-release-lucid.deb
# The best place to get Puppet for RHEL/CentOS/Fedora is from the Puppet labs 
repo
puppet.repourl=https://yum.puppetlabs.com/el/6/products/i386/puppetlabs-release-6-2.noarch.rpm
# The best place to get Puppet for OpenSuSE/SLES is from the OBS
puppet.repourl=http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/eclipseagent:/puppet/SLE_11_SP2/
{noformat}

Please consider this for inclusion into 0.8.2
                
> install puppet from puppetlabs repos instead of the ruby gem

> Puppetlabs is strongly discouraging the use of puppet from the Ruby gems. 
> Instead they are offering repositories for popular Linux distros over at 
> http://[yum|apt].puppetlabs.com 
> It would be nice to let Whirr use those instead of installing puppet as a gem
