Thanks for the reply. I am wondering now what do people use to manage
software using cfengine on SuSE machines? I've done some searches but
haven't found anything that interfaces properly with yast, for
example. In my case, the package in question is an internal one that
is not available in the repositories, hence the need to install it
from a file (I guess a proper solution would be to set up an internal
repository and use yast, but since it's only one package, it seems
overkill for now).
The workaround that I found is to specify the full path as part of
package_name_convention:
package_name_convention =>
"${localpackagefiles}/$(name)-$(version).$(arch).rpm";
This works fine for now, but I guess it would break if I try to do any
operation besides "add", since it will try to use the full path for
all operations (e.g. remove packages).
Best regards,
--Diego
