Hmm, they don't do it :) Point. FWIW, in this case, the download path of the module (from pmt) needs to be somehow indicated to be "apache" and not "foo-apache", so it's still a case of needing to know what to save it when downloading directly from the webapp, right? And pmt needs to know to name it "apache". So there's still something that we need to tweak, it seems. --Michael -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.

Re: [Puppet Users] using puppetforge modules
a lame solution, but usable - have a link from /etc/puppet//modelname to the forge dl location?

I'd personnaly suggests to continue working this way, because then : - you have to read (and understand) the module before using it - you can easily compare modules - you don't want to overwrite an existing module - nor mess up your module dir - mv is not so difficult to use :) Regards, Nico. signature.asc Description: Ceci est une partie de message numériquement signée

You raise an interesting question, which I'm not sure of the answer... Should module authors modify their modules to match the forge namespace ? Or is it expected that users rename modules downloaded from the forge before using them ? Does anyone have an idea of right the way to do this ?
