http://serverfault.com/questions/370266/puppet-using-ensure-with-package-version-and-held This serverfault thread show the problem and workarounds (and their problems) concisely. ---------------------------------------- Bug #14560: package/apt provider needs to allow holding and ensuring a particular version at the same time https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/14560#change-64493 Author: Russell Jackson Status: Needs More Information Priority: Normal Assignee: Category: Debian Target version: Affected Puppet version: 2.7.14 Keywords: debian apt dpkg package hold held Branch: The package provider needs to be able to ensure a particular version of a package while also being able to set a hold status simultaneously. Currently, I'm forced to use an exec to install the package and then have the package provider ensure it being held. I can do it the other way around, but then I get change notices about the package version changing from 'held' to the ensured version on every run. -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
