Is there a way in puppet to detect what version of python or ruby, or
for that matter, any package which is installed?
For instance:
if python_version > x:
do something
else
do something else
It looks liek versioncmp is what I want, but I don't know how to get the
version.
Maybe do some sort of exec that gets this version?
Sorry if this a newb question,
You could write a custom fact, that would get you version number.
One problem with that is the first puppet run, before the package is
installed, that fact would have to return something like '0', or 'nil',
so you would have to run puppet twice to get a node to a desired state.
I haven't found more intelligent approach to this problem so far :-/
