Hmm, poking around a bit, this seems related to the version of pkg-get
being used.
The non-working system has 4.1.3 (the latest, from opencsw.org ), and
if I do
pkg-get -c nrpe
on that, I get no results back.
If I try it on a system with 4.1.2 installed, the same command tells
me that I have the current version of CSWnrpe installed. Re-installing
the old version of pkg-get on the broken system fixes it, and puppet
works as expected.
I'm not sure if this is a regression in pkg-get, or an intentional
change in its behaviour (in which case, I suppose the blastwave
provider will have to adapt to fit). I will try and find out a bit
more...
