Issue #20812 has been reported by Aaron Hicks. ---------------------------------------- Feature #20812: Add 'update' capability to package resource https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/20812
* Author: Aaron Hicks * Status: Unreviewed * Priority: Normal * Assignee: * Category: package * Target version: * Affected Puppet version: 3.1.1 * Keywords: * Branch: ---------------------------------------- We're installing GPFS from IBM, the installation packages come in two parts, gpfs.base and gpfs.update. The gpfs.base and gpfs.update are in conflict, but gpfs.update depends on gpfs.base. The documented way of handling this issue is by installing one, and updating the other i.e. <pre><code=shell> rpm -ivh gpfs.base*.rpm rpm -Uvh gpfs.update*.rpm </code></pre> Could the package resource be extended to have an 'update' attribute that changes the install method to -Uvh for the rpm provider? -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
