- The default for $proxy_host is undef
- apt considers $proxy_set to be absent if $proxy_host is undef
- apt::ppa considers proxy_env to be empty if $proxy_host is false or ''
This results in apt::ppa to consider $proxy_host to be set when the default undef is used
breaking ppa resources because $proxy_env becomes:
[http_proxy=http://:8080, https_proxy=http://:8080]
Fix this by making both apt and apt::ppa consider $proxy_host to be unset when it is
any of false, '', or undef.
Lucid (10.04) has `add-apt-repository` but it doesn't accept any
options. The define defaulted to `-y` but this changes that on lucid.
This was made 7 months ago, so apparently no one cares about 10.04 any
more.
...as sometimes we want to get rid of them. :)
We leave this a little loose; rather than simply requiring a boolean for
$ensure, we set the stage for doing an easy switch to also allowing 'purge' at
some point in the future.
apt::ppa and apt::builddep requires apt class. The anchor introduced for
containment of apt-get update causes a dependency loop. apt::ppa appears
to depend on apt class sources.d direcory. While apt::builddep have no
clear reason for a dependency on apt class. This change refactor both
define type, so they no longer cause a dependency loop.
The update to separate Exec["apt-get update ${name}"] to single exec in
apt::update class resulted in apt-get update command to be dangled.
Previously if user specified Package['package_a'] <-
Apt::Resource['source_a'], the original refactor would no longer
guarantee apt-get update is executed before the package is installed.
This patch fixes the problem using the anchor resource and ensuring the
old behaviour is maintained and user can depend on apt-get update
command being invoked if they specify dependency on any apt::*
define resource type as well as the apt class.
Previously the update-apt exec would always use /usr/bin/aptitude, which is not necessarily present. This change makes it use ${apt::params::provider} which defaults to /usr/bin/apt-get. This also adds some consistency so that ${apt::params::provider} is used everywhere.
With the addition of this patch two new defines will be added; one to
manage APT configuration files (apt::conf) and one that abstracts out the
requirements needed to turn on backport repositories (apt::backports).
In addition, the patch takes the opportunity to clean up variable
definitions so they follow a consistent pattern of setting local
variables to the fully qualified value stored in the apt::params
class. Previously all variable used within a class directly addressed
the apt::params namespace when ever the variable was used. In the
pattern they now adhere to we can more easily switch the namespace
data lives in or externalize it even more using hiera.
This commit changes $release to default to Facter's $lsbdistcodename
and fall back to a Parse Error if $release is not set and $lsbdistcodename
does not exist. Previously $release was hardcoded to karmic.
This commit also modifies apt::ppa to use $release and sets the
files to be ensured so that they are not purged when purge_sources_list_d
is set to true.
