Hi Dan,

Thx for your answer.

The upgrade is Ok! with the option -Y

After exec 'ps aux' I have those process in running:

root      1415  2.4  5.1  38516 25532 ?        Ssl  09:46   1:40
/usr/bin/ruby1.8 /usr/sbin/puppetd
avahi     3710  2.0  0.3   2824  1500 ?        Ss   10:54   0:00
avahi-daemon: running [puppet-client.local]

I kill the first one * /usr/bin/ruby1.8 /usr/sbin/puppetd. This fixes the
problem.

Thx,

Ghislain.
