Issue #18194 has been updated by Ben Ford.
We band-aided the manifests until this can get patched by using $::hardwaremodel and $kernelmajrelease to calculate an http source, then setting that via Package resources. I hope to get this fixed for real tonight. ---------------------------------------- Bug #18194: freebsd package provider uses only active ftp https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/18194#change-79106 Author: Ben Ford Status: Unreviewed Priority: Normal Assignee: Category: provider Target version: Affected Puppet version: Keywords: Branch: Active FTP is blocked by many firewalls. The freebsd provider uses active FTP to download the ports index and times out. This makes the provider virtually useless out of the box on FreeBSD. To fix, I set the source to 'http://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/amd64/packages-9-stable/'. But this isn't really portable. What about FreeBSD 8? -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
