I'm actually using the CSW packages for Solaris, even though I don't like the idea of having a whole lot of dependencies attached to a few needed binaries/packages (but hey, that's CSW for you !). For the AIX rpms, I have a whiz for building on AIX (which is not my OS of choice), I'll let you k

I believe they actually accepted the patch upstream...finally. No telling when that'll make it into the easily accessible Ruby builds for AIX though. On Tue, Nov 3, 2015 at 7:17 PM, Michael Stahnke wrote: > > > On Tue, Nov 3, 2015 at 6:48 PM, Ryan Anderson > wrote: > >> I've gotten puppet open

I've gotten puppet open source 3.7.x working on AIX, I haven't updated to 3.8, but I'm sure that would be trivial. The steps are basically: - Install the ruby 2.0.0 AIX rpm from perzl.org, plus its dependencies - Create directories: mkdir -p /etc/puppet /var/lib/puppet - Use the ruby gems to insta

Well, you do still have the option of compiling C++ Facter for AIX, if you want to go that route. On Tue, Nov 3, 2015 at 10:06 AM, Jean-Francois Gratton wrote: > Thanks for the heads up for Facter. Thing is, unless I really want to > recompile everything, I'm stuck for the time being a mix of Pu

Thanks for the heads up for Facter. Thing is, unless I really want to recompile everything, I'm stuck for the time being a mix of Puppet 3.4.x and 3.8.x (Solaris offers 3.4 right now, and I don't have the courage, basically, to recompile/repackage it if I can avoid it; AIX, I cannot avoid it, s

It's worth noting that Facter is no longer really maintained as a Ruby application. It's now a C++ application. Today you can use a recent version of Puppet with the last version of Facter released as a pure Ruby application. This means that for the most part, all you need to get working to get

That was a fast answer, Michael, I appreciate. I’ll have a go at it this week and will report on how much fun it was :-) I don't mind building stuff, actually (although on AIX that'd be a first for me : let's double the fun !). Regarding PE, I wouldn't mind, provided I can get the buy-
