So we partially discussed about that during our last weekly meeting [1] and it come out the best way to support both Debian & Ubuntu are Puppet conditionals, like we already have in place. [1] http://eavesdrop.openstack.org/meetings/puppet_openstack/2015/puppet_openstack.2015-09-29-15.00.html See the example with puppet-nova |2] where we use $::operatingsystem fact [3] to detect if we're running Ubuntu or Debian. If we're running Ubuntu, we take reference from UCA packaging. If Debian, we take your work as reference.
