Hello, I am scratching my head on this one. For a project, I need to compile a package from source that depends on a apt source package. Since I am managing package sources with puppet, I need apt-get builddep to be executed *after* sources have been added.
All my sources are managed inside the class 'sources' through apt::source. However, when I require that class for builddep, I am falling into a huge dependency cycle: (Anchor[apt::source::puppetlabs] => Apt::Source[puppetlabs] => Class[Sources] => Apt::Builddep[something] => Exec[apt-builddep-something] => Exec[apt_update] => Class[Apt::Update] => Anchor[apt::source::puppetlabs]) When I omit the requirement, puppet executes builddep before the sources have been added and the command fails. After a lot of debugging, trying and reading through the apt source, I came to the conclusion that this is a problem inside apt. I am out of ideas. Does anyone here have a idea for this problem or should I start patching apt?
