Wouter Verhelst created an issue
Puppet / PUP-5539
circular dependent RPM packages can't be uninstalled
Issue Type:
Bug
Affects Versions:
PUP 3.7.2, PUP 2.7.25
Assignee:
Unassigned
Created:
2015/11/23 4:37 AM
Environment:
puppet master on Debian jessie, with Debian's packaged version of puppet using mod_passenger.
puppet client on CentOS 6.7, with puppet RPM packages from EPEL (2.7.26).
Priority:
Normal
Reporter:
Wouter Verhelst
With the following manifest snippet:
{{ class gui { $packages_unwanted = [ "gnome-media", "gnome-media-libs", ]
package{$packages_unwanted: ensure => absent, provider => yum, } } }}
I get the following when running puppet agent --test on a system that already has the two packages installed:
{{ wouterv@bruct06-cal:~$ sudo puppet agent --test [sudo] password for wouterv: notice: Ignoring --listen on onetime run info: Retrieving plugin info: Loading facts in /var/lib/puppet/lib/facter/ht.rb info: Loading facts in /var/lib/puppet/lib/facter/raid.rb info: Caching catalog for bruct06-cal.office.caliopa.com info: Applying configuration version 'p3bp-40-g22f6004' err: /Stage[main]

Title: Message Title Josh Cooper commented on PUP-5539 Re: circular dependent RPM packages can't be uninstalled Hi Wouter Verhelst This was first reported in https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/1935 over 7 years ago, and was closed as a dup of https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/2198, because we'd like puppet to process packages in batches (for a variety of reasons, including handling this case). The redmine ticket 2198 was migrated to JIRA as PUP-1061, so I'm going to close this ticket as a dup of that one.

Re: circular dependent RPM packages can't be uninstalled
Hi Josh,
While I agree that PUP-1061 would fix the issue, I'm not sure I would call it a duplicate, as this issue is not reproducible on my Debian system. Observe:

While the spurious error about one of the two packages is slightly annoying and might result in false positives, the end result is still that both packages are not installed, exactly what is wanted. A simple way to work around that problem would be to list just one of the packages in the circular dependency; once you've done that, puppet will remove the packages, no problem.
This is because the apt provider uses apt-get remove to remove a package, rather than calling dpkg directly. In contrast, the yum provider uses the rpm command to remove packages, rather than using yum erase, which will (similarly to apt-get remove) consider dependencies before removal.
Since I believe that fixing PUP-1061 will require more work than changing the yum provider so that it calls yum erase rather than rpm -e, and since this is a discrepancy in behavi
