ubuntu puppet is old. you should install the puppet 0.24.8 from karmic download http://mirrors.kernel.org/ubuntu/pool/universe/p/puppet/puppet_0.24.8-2_all.deb and then dpkg -i puppet_0.24.8-2_all.deb I am using that for my ubuntu 9.04 -- Asif Iqbal PGP Key: 0xE62693C5 KeyServer: pgp.mit.edu A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text.
