Issue #4976 has been updated by Aggelos Economopoulos. File force.patch added
I wanted to do something similar last week (see attached patch). Unfortunately, it turns out that required_features is not enforced for parameters. This means that puppet would accept a force parameter even for providers that don't know about it (in my patch, everything other than apt) or can't handle it. Therefore I don't think my patch should be included yet, although it works fine for me. ---------------------------------------- Feature #4976: force package install https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/4976 Author: mark foster Status: Accepted Priority: Normal Assignee: Nigel Kersten Category: package Target version: Affected version: Keywords: Branch: Please add force as an optional attribute to the package provider For apt-get, this should add --force-yes to the arguments For yum, this should add --no-deps Thanks. -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
