Hi,

I'm having trouble installing packages that have dependencies. (I can
install packages like zip fine.)

for example I would like to install s3cmd.
Installing from command line I would run.
#apt-get -y -o APT::Install-Suggests="true" install s3cmd
which will install python-support & s3cmd.

My init.pp files looks like this

###
class build {
file {'/home/ubuntu/puppet-test-build-mod-1':
   ensure  => present,
   content => "Hello World!",
     }
}

       package { 's3cmd':
         ensure => installed,
       }

Is there any way to force the installation of a packages that has
dependencies?

The source of your problem is unlikely to be Puppet. If you apply your package statement the package provider should run

/usr/bin/apt-get -q -y -o DPkg::Options::=--force-confold install s3cmd

and your apt/history.log should show

Start-Date: 2013-11-17  06:34:25
Commandline: /usr/bin/apt-get -q -y -o DPkg::Options::=--force-confold install s3cmd Install: python-support:amd64 (1.0.14ubuntu2, automatic), s3cmd:amd64 (1.0.0-1)
