Hi, I have next to no experience with yum, but generally you should try and
1. use the yumrepo type: https://docs.puppetlabs.com/references/latest/type.html#yumrepo 2. make sure the package *require* the repository 3. perhaps pass the enablerepo option via the install_options parameter: https://docs.puppetlabs.com/references/latest/type.html#package-attribute-install_options HTH, Felix On 01/06/2015 03:59 PM, staceytian4...@gmail.com wrote: > Hi, > > I am using open source Puppet 3.7.3.
