Hi, I need the capability have an enable repo in my package type, as described in
http://projects.reductivelabs.com/issues/2247 However, I don't this this will get implemented soon. As such I have done the following I copied the yum.rb and package.rb from the standard location into a custom module module/custom/lib/provider/package_nat.rb module/custom/lib/type/yum.rb In the above files I make my edits: package_nat.rb: newparam(:enablerepo) do desc "enable a repo on a run (yum only)" end Change the first line in yum.rb: Puppet::Type.type(:package_nat).provide :yum, :parent => :rpm, :source => :rpm do swapped the output line in yum.rb: enabledrepo = @resource[:enablerepo] if enabledrepo.nil? output = yum "-d", "0", "-e", "0", "-y", :install, wanted else output = yum "-d", "0", "-e", "0", "-y", :install, wanted, "-- enablerepo", enabledrepo end On clients the new type get put in /var/lib/puppet/lib/puppet/{type,provider} Now the issue is this works If the files manually get placed in the standard ruby paths on my machines (/usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/puppet/) But when I do a puppet run I get the following error on my clients (/Stage[main]/Nathan_test/Package_nat[job]) Could not evaluate: undefined method `properties' for nil:NilClass I know I am close but I can not figure out this last past, maybe scope issues of the files?
