I ran into the same issue this weekend, and discovered that the Amazon yum repo's latest Puppet package (2.7.25) has ruby1.8 "shebang'd". With that puppet release, you can have ruby2.0 on the system as the default and still have puppet running correctly. If your hosts are running the puppet agent as a service, and you haven't restarted them since the 2.0 release (last Thursday?), you can even upgrade puppet with a simple:
package { 'puppet': ensure => 'latest' } YMMV, that worked with the 10 or so hosts I had that were still on puppet < 2.7.25. -- M On Sunday, March 30, 2014 6:03:02 PM UTC-4, Jason Price wrote: > > ok.
