Issue #23000 has been updated by Matthaus Owens. Status changed from Unreviewed to Rejected
The ruby 1.8.7 package is provided as a convenience for rhel 5 users that don't have easy access to ruby 1.8.7 but want Puppet 3.x. For users that don't want to install the updated ruby on el5, they can continue to use Puppet < 3.0 or they can build their own ruby 1.8.7 or greater to use for Puppet 3.x. ---------------------------------------- Bug #23000: puppet should not overwrite system binaries https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/23000#change-100063 * Author: James Patterson * Status: Rejected * Priority: Normal * Assignee: * Category: Red Hat * Target version: * Affected Puppet version: 3.3.1 * Keywords: * Branch: ---------------------------------------- Installing puppet should not overwrite system-provided binaries. I have a RHEL5 system which uses ruby 1.8.5. Puppet requires a newer version, and bundles it. The bundled dependency overwrites a vendor-supplied package rather than installing it in another location. -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
