You can't get around running an `apt-get update` but you can do that
from an exec resource in an earlier run stage.
stage { pre: before => Stage["main"] }
exec { "apt-get update": stage => "pre" }
You'll probably want to do your backports setup before the `apt-get
update` in your early run stage, too.
