Personally, I wouldn't want a CPAN provider -- if you can get content from OS packages (debian is particularly good about this), I would use those. CPAN's need to build things locally and update at unpredictable intervals (and frequently not building) means I really wouldn't want to connect a production machine directly to it. Doing really minimal packaging for the CPAN modules you use, if not already packaged, would be worth it in my opinion. --Michael -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
