I was thinking of this in a very fine grained way, such as a metaparameter.
The situation that made me think of this is:

file { 'super/important':
ensure => 'file',

hmm I don't see why you'd like to have your environment in a

broken or you have to fix it. Everything else is imho just scary...

An update on this thread working with Mark at USG:
The example Apache config file with Puppet is not correct. I have
submitted a patch so the example configuration file is correct.

For the most part, execs is it, but sometimes you might use it for a
file or for a custom type.
I suppose that it could be built into each type as necessary with just
as much effectiveness.
In this case though, we might want to set up logging for the exec only
on specific failure states.

I'd like to use puppet to manage some cron jobs. Unfortunately, I do not
have cron installed on my servers. So, I'd like to use puppet to install
cron. Unfortunately, this doesn't seem to work. Puppet complains about

As I mentioned in another thread, I'm trying to work through the kinks in
developing my own types/providers. I appear to be doing something very
wrong, but I don't know what.
On my puppetmaster, I've got the following:

Sorry, package["anacron"] is a bad example, since that package doesn't

I'm running on ubuntu. Anyhow, I'm running puppet with only that
file. Nothing more. So if it needs an explicit service definition, it
should complain about it. Anyhow I tried it, same error. The cron thing
fails out before it gets anywhere.

Puppetmasterd runs as root, though I suppose I could start it as
puppet
The main thing I am trying to do here is not have the CA directory,
and all its files owned by root
I want all the CA stuff to continue to be owned by the puppet user.
I guess what I mean is that I want to be able to specif

I got the same error when it was run from a puppetmaster, I switched to
a simpler local example to debug it.
If you don't have cron installed, does puppet error out, or install it
like it ought?

After encountering more problems such as no ability

is working,,,
I decided (not happily) to move from my Ubuntu jaunty 9.04

That works inversely proportionally to the number of "special" boxes you
have for a particular resource and since we have a handful or resources
that work this way, we'd definitely prefer something similar to the
approach we're currently using in 0.22.4.

We're going to need to reevaluate provider/service/freebsd.rb in big
ways.
For example:

}
Will write /etc/rc.conf.d/cron w/ cron_enable=YES
despite /etc/defaults/rc.conf having cron_enable=YES
