Issue #2878 has been updated by Peter Meier.
do you mind proposing your patches to the -dev list? This is where discussion for new features happens. You find notes and hints to do that here: http://reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/wiki/Development/DevelopmentLifecycle ---------------------------------------- Feature #2878: feature request: New parameter for Sun package resource http://projects.reductivelabs.com/issues/2878 Author: derek olsen Status: Unreviewed Priority: Normal Assigned to: Category: Target version: Affected version: 0.25.1 Keywords: Branch: Hello. The patches supplied with this request are intended to add an enhancement to the Sun package provider. This enhancement adds an interface to a native feature of the Solaris "pkgadd" utilities. The new parameter "pkginst" would allow users to pass multiple package names or the magic word "all" to the "pkgadd" command. This feature will be used by Solaris administrators who have package file s which contain multiple packages. Pretty much every shop has between 2 and 5 packages of this type. The attached tar file contains the supporting patches and usage documentation. Here is what the requested parameter would look like in a manifest. In this example we use the value "all" to add all sub packages package { "SUNWjet":, adminfile => "/etc/pkgadmin", source => "/var/tmp/jet.pkg", ensure => installed, pkginst => "all", } In this example we only want two specific sub packages package { "SUNWjet":, adminfile => "/etc/pkgadmin", source => "/var/tmp/jet.pkg", ensure => installed, pkginst => [ "SUNWjet", "JetFLASH" ] } I'm pretty new to puppet (migrating from CFengine). I hope this is the right format for this request. I have one or two other requests that I'll be submitting in the near future so if I need to learn anything from this request to make the future requests more efficient please let me know. I have attached a tar file which contains 2 unified diff patch files. In the tar file is a README which contains the example usage of the feature request as well. Thanks.
