Issue #22491 has been updated by Kurt Sussman. Status changed from Unreviewed to Accepted Affected Puppet version changed from 3.2.2 to 3.3.0
Verified with Ubuntu Precise amd64, Ruby 1.9.3-p0 and Puppet 3.3.0. Pinned package isn't downgraded by puppet run, but 'apt-get upgrade' will downgrade it. ---------------------------------------- Bug #22491: apt provider doesn't allow packages to be downgraded with ensure=>latest https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/22491#change-98273 * Author: Sven Mueller * Status: Accepted * Priority: Normal * Assignee: * Category: * Target version: * Affected Puppet version: 3.3.0 * Keywords: * Branch: ---------------------------------------- We have a few packages which have a pin >1000 (forcing downgrades if the highest available package has a lower version than the installed one). Of those, some are managed by puppet, but ensure=>latest fails for them if the package needs to be downgraded. The apt provider should include --force-yes also when ensure is set to 'latest' in our opinion. -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
