I am trying to get a package (iftop) installed on a test node using puppet
but I can't get it to install. This seems like it should be simple, but I
can't figure out what I am missing. Have done a lot of searching for
similar problems and the answers I found seem to be vague in the details
and
Gavin,
Yes, I can do a manual yum install. There are no dependencies. The rpm
installs the single binary.
Thanks,
Mike
