Description

am running on ubuntu 1110, and puppet 2.7.x (x= 1 till 9) on the node, and can’t get any packages installed via mcollective.

I ran the mco rpc -v package install package=intellitxt-1100 and it doesn’t seem to be installing the package for me

the status command : mco rpc -v package status package=intellitxt-1100 gives

web-gertrude : OK {:properties=> {:status=>"missing", :error=>"ok", :name=>"intelllitxt-1100", :ensure=>:purged}, :output=> {:status=>"missing", :error=>"ok", :name=>"intelllitxt-1100", :ensure=>:purged}}

adding a bit of debug code to the package.rb plugin just after the do_pkg_action definition Log.info(“doing #{action} on package ‘#{package}’”)

so that in the log it shows:

I, [2012-02-07T16:50:43.090575 #2957] INFO -- : package.rb:102:in `do_pkg_action' doing status on package 'intellitxt-1100' I, [2012-02-07T16:50:51.640810 #2957] INFO -- : package.rb:102:in `do_pkg_action' doing install on package 'intellitxt-1100' I, [2012-02-07T16:50:56.712611 #2957] INFO -- : package.rb:102:in `do_pkg_action' doing status on package 'intelllitxt-1100' I, [2012-02-07T16:51:59.089121 #2957] INFO -- : package.rb:102:in `do_pkg_action' doing uninstall on package 'intellitxt-1100' I, [2012-02-07T16:56:02.924785 #2957] INFO -- : pckage.rb:102:in `do_pkg_action' doing uninstall on package 'intelllitxt-1100' I, [2012-02-07T16:56:10.008297 #2957] INFO -- : package.rb:102:in `do_pkg_action' doing install on package 'intellitxt-1100'

ralsh package intellitxt-1100 also shows purged regardless if I tell　it to install.

package { 'intellitxt-1100': ensure => 'purged', }

Changing the line from https://github.com/puppetlabs/mcollective-plugins/blob/master/agent/package/agent/puppet-package.rb#L115

to

reply[:output] = pkg.install if [:purged, :absent].include?(pkg.properties[:ensure])

seems to have fixed this issue for me

At present we only consider :absent package as candidates for installing, ubuntu/debian also has :purged though and now seem to consider never before installed software as purged and not absent.

So we should just make sure we treat them as equiv as in the ticket description.

Tested on Ubuntu 11.10 and Puppet 2.7.10

I’ve tweaked the package agent to consider both :purged and :absent as absent

Please let me know if that does not sort it out for you
