Hi, I am also looking at getting puppet on xenserver
I used this repo http://centos.karan.org/el5/ruby187/i386/ and ran wget on each of the 5 rpms and then used rpm -i not a pretty way of doing things but I do have ruby installed now, then same as martin. However hitting brick walls with yum install puppet using the puppetlabs repo Anyone else got a solution to this thread.. would help others i assume?
