Issue #2247 has been updated by Nigel Kersten.
I do understand the frustration, but if you look through the history of this ticket it hasn't had a clear path forward. There was a lot of chatter back and forth before the use case was made clear, and we've had somewhat unrelated comments and requests sprinkled through it. If this was a complete patch including tests, it would have been merged by now. I do think that accusing us of killing an "Open Source" project is unwarranted hyperbole, but the various people commenting on this ticket (and I include myself) should have made it clearer that the code as attached was lacking, and we would have made faster progress on getting it merged in, instead of leaving things in a confusing limbo. I would like to reboot this ticket thread in a more productive direction. To those of you who require this feature, are any of you up for writing a test suite for it? If you're interested in learning to write tests for Puppet code but don't feel confident doing it yet, please speak up too, and I'll make sure someone is available to give help. ---------------------------------------- Feature #2247: enablerepo and disablerepo for yum type https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/2247 Author: Ben - Status: Needs More Information Priority: Normal Assignee: Category: package Target version: Affected Puppet version: 0.24.8 Keywords: yum Branch: it would be nice to be able to enable a disabled repo for the installation on one package. for example installing facter from EPEL. something like; <pre> package { "facter": ensure => installed, enablerepo => [ "epel", "epel-testing" ]; } </pre> -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
