I would urge you to go the dummy package root. It is good practice generally, not just for puppet; it keeps your package database consistent and healthy *and* (very importantly) it documents your intent. If you just force --no-deps, how will you (or somebody filling in while you are ill, on holiday, under a bus etc.) know which broken dependencies on a system are evidence of error and breakage and which are deliberate policy? -- Bruce I unfortunately do not know how to turn cheese into gold. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
