In the case of Ubuntu, this would be Apt. 3) Look at the type reference http://docs.puppetlabs.com/references/0.25.0/type.html#package and find the section talking about provider. One of them should mention the comment you use for launching the package manager. (probably the one mentioning emerge) 4) It says catagory is read-only, so remove that. 5) I think name isn't needed. After your manifest is working, try removing that. 6) You might want to try to figure out why it didn't get the right provider. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Puppet Users group.
