well I can't really think of why both features should be exclusive (the current state). "holding" a package doesn't ensure a particular version other than the one that's already currently installed, which is not particularly precise. so it'd be interesting to make them separate (maybe just have a "hold" parameter to the type) the best place to discuss your patch and implementation/design details would probably be on the puppet-dev list. and maybe open up an issue on redmine first and refer to it on the list. that way you can get people to vote on the issue to show support ;) -- Gabriel Filion
