Sorry for the confusion on this one. In future releases we'll ensure that
the puppet-agent and puppet versions match, even in edge cases like the one
we encountered in this release.
If I understand your issue Steve, you should be able to specify the
package_version parameter to 6.27.1 with the puppet-agent module to upgrade
your agent:
[root@immodest-roll ~]# rpm -qa | grep puppet-agent
puppet-agent-6.26.0-1.el7.x86_64
[root@immodest-roll ~]# cat manifest.pp
class {'::puppet_agent':
package_version => '6.27.1',
}
[root@immodest-roll ~]# /opt/puppetlabs/bin/puppet apply manifest.pp
Notice: Compiled catalog for immodest-roll.delivery.puppetlabs.net in
environment production in 0.23 seconds
Notice: /Stage[main]/Puppet_agent::Install/Package[puppet-agent]/ensure:
ensure changed '6.26.0-1.el7' to '6.27.1'
Notice: Stopping run after puppet-agent upgrade. Run puppet agent -t or
apply your manifest again to finish the transaction.
Notice: Applied catalog in 12.51 seconds
[root@immodest-roll ~]# rpm -qa | grep puppet-agent
puppet-agent-6.27.1-1.el7.x86_64
