We are talking about two different things. The first is what Matthias is describing, and those modules are typically found in /etc/puppet/modules. I actually think that this directory should be created by the package. The second is dynamically generated file concatentation bits that are created by a module, and then assembled into a configuration file. These are typically done in /var/lib/puppet/modules, at least if you are using this method that DavidS uses. I dont think that this directory should be created by the package. micah
