Issue #1213 has been updated by Nigel Kersten. Status changed from Needs more information to Closed Assignee set to Nigel Kersten
If we have more concrete examples that Puppet is doing the wrong thing here, I'm happy for this to get reopened. As per the below thread, we're more aggressively closing tickets whose state is unsure, particularly old tickets with little to no inactivity in a long time. You are free to reopen them. http://groups.google.com/group/puppet-users/browse_thread/thread/a040cb9bc5c5b647 ---------------------------------------- Bug #1213: debconf-set-selections cannot be called before the package is installed https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/1213 Author: Mathieu Parent Status: Closed Priority: Normal Assignee: Nigel Kersten Category: Debian Target version: Patch: None Affected Puppet version: Keywords: Branch: Preseeding with dpkg doesn't work for newly installed packages. ---- Detail: Using the following class: <pre> #!ruby class glpi { file{'/etc/dpkg/glpi.response': ensure=>present, content=>'glpi glpi/dbconfig-install boolean false glpi glpi/dbconfig-upgrade boolean false'; } package{'glpi': ensure=>installed, responsefile=>'/etc/dpkg/glpi.response', require=>File['/etc/dpkg/glpi.response']; } } </pre> I get: <pre> info: Package[glpi](provider=apt): Preseeding /etc/dpkg/glpi.response to debconf-set-selections err: //Node[xian]/glpi/Package[glpi]/ensure: change from purged to present failed: Execution of '/usr/bin/debconf-set-selections /etc/dpkg/glpi.response' returned 256: error: Cannot find a question for glpi/dbconfig-install error: Cannot find a question for glpi/dbconfig-upgrade </pre> -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
