Issue #2247 has been updated by Matthew Byng-Maddick.
Nigel, Your status change seems spurious. Puppet already has options that are applicable only to single backend handlers in several places, so mentioning `apt-get -t` and using that as an apparent excuse for changing the status away from **Accepted** seems a little disingenuous. Not only that, but doing it when there's a working, if slightly nasty, patch that's been soundly ignored to do this attached to the ticket just makes you seem plain rude. Quite frankly, I and other people will continue to need this feature out of puppet, because we don't want yum to pull in half the world by magic in normal sysadmin operation. I guess that this means that those of us who want this feature will continue to need to patch puppet to make it do the right thing and work for us because things are being "shoe-horned into the package type". For the record, too, the fact that you've totally ignored the patch (I don't mind it being rejected, I do mind it being ignored - it's common courtesy to say "thanks but no thanks" if you don't want it, and explain why you don't like it) in this case is likely to make me just maintain my own patches in future without bothering to share them back ever. You may consider this a good thing - I think that's the death of an "Open Source" project.
