Issue #3793 has been reported by Ross West. ---------------------------------------- Bug #3793: Freebsd ports package redo http://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/3793
Author: Ross West Status: Unreviewed Priority: Normal Assigned to: Category: FreeBSD Target version: Affected version: 0.25.4 Keywords: freebsd, package provider, ports, portupgrade Branch: http://github.com/westr/puppet/tree/feature/master/portupgrade Backstory: There are 2 package providers supplied for freebsd - one for freebsd packages (:freebsd), and one for ports (:ports). Freebsd's ports is the most commonly used system for freebsd as it contains instructions and patches for compiling software from source. The current package :ports utilizes a common 3rd party software (portupgrade) system to manage (install/version/etc) the ports system which remains unchanged. This ticket/code is to replace that provider. ":ports" provider contains a few issues that are addressed in this replacement * ensure=>latest is broken * unable to deal with multi-versions of a software port (eg: mysql50, mysql51, etc) * uninstall can fail Incompatible change with this new package: * package name needs to be the full port origin (eg: databases/mysql51-client) Configuration example: package { "shells/bash": provider => portupgrade, alias => "bash", ensure => latest, } -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
