Hi, When trying to get the following to work (excerpt): bundle action foobar { vars: redhat.tomcat_host:: "add_package" slist => {"httpd"}; "upd_package" slist => {"httpd"}; "del_package" slist => {"unnecessary-pkg"};
packages: redhat:: "$(add_package)" comment => "add packages ($(add_package))", package_method => "yum", package_policy => "add"; "$(upd_package)" comment => "upd packages ($(upd_package))", package_method => "yum", package_policy => "update"; "$(del_package)" comment => "del packages ($(del_package))", package_method => "yum", package_policy => "delete"; } I get the following errors on an eligible client: # cf-agent !! You must supply a method for determining the version of existing packages I: Made in version 'not specified' of '/var/cfengine/inputs/foobar.cf' near line 148 I: Comment: add packages (httpd) !!

I see references to yum with 'freebsd' in various pages, which is baffling me since all the folks I know who use freebsd use apt.. Here is some output from redhat yum, to get an idea of what the regex is being fed: # yum list installed|grep httpd This system is not registered with RHN. RHN support will be disabled. httpd.x86_64 2.2.3-22.el5 installed system-config-httpd.noarch 5:1.3.3.3-1.el5 installed Any help appreciated! = Matt _______________________________________________ Help-cfengine mailing list Help-cfengine@cfengine.org https://cfengine.org/mailman/listinfo/help-cfengine
