So I just looked quickly at the doco for pkgsrc and the existing freebsd, openbsd and ports support in Puppet and it looks to me like it'll work fine. It's currently confined to only work on OpenBSd and FreeBSD but it'd be an easy fix to update that and if there are minor bugs fix those. The files you want to look at are: lib/puppet/provider/package/openbsd.rb lib/puppet/provider/package/freebsd.rb lib/puppet/provider/package/ports.rb Cheers James Turnbull - -- Author of: * Pulling Strings with Puppet (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1590599780/) * Pro Nagios 2.0 (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1590596099/) * Hardening Linux (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1590594444/) -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iEYEARECAAYFAkmABSoACgkQ9hTGvAxC30CQhgCg2JnsbhQ1fPJ2TDbUIYjRkcaJ 7gAAoLgiWpIa3yPTLI8xISfgeiQp1JLz =NveT -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
