Can some help explain the differences and use cases of subscribe and
require. They seem to have a bit overlap in the sense that they do the same
thing almost. I understand a require sets up a dependency. So for eg the
following below would setup a dependency on the package pam to be installed
in order for the file type to run.
package { 'pam':
ensure = > latest,
}
file { '/etc/pam.d/system-auth':
ensure => symlink,
target => 'system-auth-ac',
require => Package['pam']
}
But what I am confused about is how is subscribe different? Doesn't that
handle the same relationship of saying that you are "subscribing" (and/or)
requiring something?
