Title: Message Title Branan Riley commented on PUP-4710 Re: disabling of apt-listchanges in puppet provider should no longer happen Unfortunately Jessie still has a version of listchanges that predates the fix. We should try to figure out a better way to handle this, though.

Title: Message Title Josh Cooper commented on PUP-4710 Re: disabling of apt-listchanges in puppet provider should no longer happen We set the environment variable as soon as the apt provider is required, not just when performing an operation. It also doesn't reset the environment back when it's done.

Title: Message Title Micah Anderson created an issue Puppet / PUP-4710 disabling of apt-listchanges in puppet provider should no longer happen Issue Type: Bug Assignee: Unassigned Created: 2015/06/08 8:19 AM Environment: Debian Priority: Normal Reporter: Micah Anderson I originally filed an issue in Redmine at https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/5604 about this problem Basically the problem was that the puppet apt provider disables apt-listchanges using an environment variable: lib/puppet/provider/package/apt.rb: ENV['APT_LISTCHANGES_FRONTEND'] = none That variable is used by 'apt-listchanges' in ./apt-listchanges/ALCConfig.py and with it set, apt-listchanges is completely unusable. The reason this was done was because it makes it so puppet will work when apt-listchanges is installed (because otherwise it prompts on a non-interactive terminal). However, there are other legitimate ways to configure apt-listchanges (for example setting the front-end to use mail which is a non-interactive way to have it send you email about package upgrades), but because puppet is setting this in the code, it is impossible to set these other options. When I originally reported this issue, I also reported an issue with apt-listchanges upstream (http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=610012) asking that apt-listchanges fall-back to a non-interactive front-end automatically. Although I reported this bug in 2011, it was just fixed! That means that this
