If, however, you're relying on lsb-distrelease to provide facts but
you're installing it with Puppet, then that won't work,
unfortunately.
Not sure, if you try to do crontab and cron isnt there at puppet
startup time it blows up as soon as the catelog start, it doesnt
wait for you to package install cron via requires or anything like
that. That's probably most of the pain. Same with trying to use
packages with the gem provider - you cant install via yum rubygems
and in the same run expect to use the gem provider afterward
Cron's probably different, but I am nearly positive that gems now work
to install rubygems and use them in the same run. Anyone able to test
that on a clean machine real quick?
