Oh boy. Puppet is frustrating the heck out of me.
I have this below....
node tst_basenode {
include yum
Package {
require => [
Yumrepo["CentOS-Base"],
Yumrepo["EPEL-Core"],
...
]
}
}
node tst_childnode inherits tst_basenode {
include ldap_client
}
This generally seems to work, making sure that my yum repo's are in
place before anything else is done. However, I saw that the
yum-priorities rpm was being installed way later, and it needs to be
up there with yum, done initially. So, I added a
package["yum-priorities"] to require=> in that default package
definition in the base node and puppet claimed that it found
dependancy cycles. ARGH!
Actually, if you think about it, there's no guarantee as to when yum
is installed either. It just happens to already be installed because
this is CentOS, but if it wasn't installed, yum might get installed
later, which would break everything.
Quite simply, how do I GUARANTEE that my repos are done FIRST followed
by any mandatory packages like yum and yum-priorities?
