Or at least that's how I've managed to make it work. But it does *not* call apt-get update if there have been no changes to sources.list.d. If that's what you need, I can share my config. But if you need to call apt-get update to find new packages added to repositories already in sources.list, I think you have to find another solution. It is for this (and oh so many other reasons) that I am learning to detest Debian-based distros, but I digress. > 2.

I create all my apt and yum entries in a stage before main, then I don't have to track which package comes from which repo. But you could just invoke apt-get update every time with an unrestricted exec. You probably want apt-get update to only update periodically or when the upstream repositories have new packages, but it doesn't seem to work that way for me… -- Brian Lalor bla...@bravo5.org -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
