Am I missing why this doesn't work? ---------------------------------------- Bug #9655: Strange behaviour with collections and package providers https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/9655 Author: Matt Dainty Status: Needs Decision Priority: Normal Assignee: Nigel Kersten Category: package Target version: Affected Puppet version: 2.6.9 Keywords: Branch: I have the following basic class: <pre> class yum { yumrepo { "foo": ... notify => Exec["yum clean all"], } yumrepo { "bar": ... notify => Exec["yum clean all"], } exec { "yum clean all": refreshonly => true, } Exec["yum clean all"] -> Package <| provider == yum |> } </pre> So basically I'd like to run "yum clean all" after making any changes to the repository config and before I install any packages. However, I can't get the dependency created unless I explicitly set the provider to yum in any individual package resources. So the following examples all fail: On a CentOS host where yum is/should be the default provider: <pre> node baz { include yum package { "vim": ensure => present } } </pre> Setting a resource default globally for all Packages: <pre> Package { provider => yum, } node baz { include yum package { "vim": ensure => present } } </pre> Setting the resource default for all Packages just on the node in question: <pre> node baz { Package { provider => yum, } include yum package { "vim": ensure => present } } </pre> The only way I got it to work is with: <pre> node baz { include yum package { "vim": ensure => present, provider => yum, # Ick } } </pre> I can also make it work by removing the condition "provider == yum" in the Package <| |> collection or even changing the == to !=. I'm verifying the presence of the dependency by looking at the graph .dot output as sometimes the random ordering can make it look like it's working. -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
