it can manage k5 stuff, yet we don't force that on everyone. We install it
where we need it. Puppet *requires* ruby, it does not require augeas or nagios.
I think the line should be drawn between critical requires and optional fluff
that enable a feature but that many people don't want to use. This can be
demonstrated with facter easily:
# puppetd --test
/usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/puppet.rb:9:in `require': no such file to load --
facter (LoadError)
from /usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/puppet.rb:9
from /usr/sbin/puppetd:164:in `require'
from /usr/sbin/puppetd:164
That's a requirement, when puppet does the same for augeas then it too is a
requirement.
