Hello,
I have hit an issue where puppet cannot manage the the facilities provided to
it by rpm/yum. I tried to use puppet to ensure an extra kernel package would
be installed on a system by adding the following line
package { kernel-xen: ensure => "2.6.18-92.1.6.el5" }
However when running the manifest on the server I get the following message
err: //Node[vfuk3]/productionsys/production/Package[kernel-xen]/ensure: change
from 2.6.18-53.el5 to 2.6.18-92.1.6.el5 failed: Could not update: Failed to
update to version 2.6.18-92.1.6.el5, got version 2.6.18-53.el5 instead at
/var/lib/puppet/modules/production/manifests/init.pp:17
then after the initial puppet run the follow is reported by rpmquery
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# rpmquery kernel-xen
kernel-xen-2.6.18-53.el5
kernel-xen-2.6.18-92.1.6.el5
So clearly puppet has managed to install the package however due to the first
time also finding another kernel-xen package installed it took the version of
the first package it found and assumed the new version it had requested was not
installed.
RPM does support installing two packages with the same name and different
version for good reasons, if puppet is to manage rpm based systems it should
too.
