I'm not entirely clear on the history behind this feature, and this
feels sort of hack-y. If you could explain why this is needed that would
be awesome, or if it isn't just merge this :)
Add "oldstable" to the default update origins to ensure
the updates keep working after wheezy+1 gets released
See unattended-upgrades 0.79.5+wheezy1 and https://bugs.debian.org/711826
- fix spec tests to include osfamily fact
- add spec tests to verify current default behavior unimpacted.
- manage the update-stamp file in puppet via content rather than a served file.
- update custom fact to return -1 if the file doesn't exist
- add spec test for custom fact
- refactor to use a variable vs a collector/override
- document parameters a bit more verbosely
- remove empty unconstrained fact
- Add osfamily fact to backports tests to facilitate functional tests on non-debian hosts
Adds spec test
If lab-release is not installed, then the end user sees a confusing/ vague message
Error: Unsupported lsbdistid () at /modules/apt/manifests/params.pp:52
It is common for docker containers to not include this package by default
After fix, the user sees a friendlier message if lab-release is not installed
Error: Unable to determine lsbdistid, is lsb-release installed? at /modules/apt/manifests/params.pp:52
Quoting https://wiki.debian.org/LTS
Official security support for Debian GNU/Linux 6.0
(code name "Squeeze") has ended on 31 May 2014.
However long term support for the distribution
is going to be extended until February 2016,
i.e. five years after the initial release.
See https://wiki.debian.org/LTS for more details.
This commit changes the proxy file name to be more consistent with other files
in `apt.conf.d`. The old file (`apt.conf.d/proxy`) is removed.
Tests has been updated.
Because Squeeze is now oldstable we need to add an oldstable line too
otherwise security updates won't be picked up. This is still because we
can't match on codename.
The default configuration we were writing for Debian was only working
for Squeeze, from Wheezy and onwards this wasn't working anymore. This
has to do with the fact that we should now be using Origins-Pattern
according to the unattended-upgrades docs. However, Ubuntu didn't
entirely get with the program yet...
This change reflects the defaults that unattended-upgrade installs on
every platform we support. In order to do so the unattended-upgrades
Debian archive for Squeeze, Wheezy, Lucid, Precise and Trusty were
downloaded and the default /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/50unattended-upgrades
checked for its content with regard to using Allow-Origins or
Origins-Pattern.
Fixes#277
The module used to always pin backports to a priority of 200. This
default is still retained but is now configurable.
Additionally the default is now an Integer, not a 'quoted Integer' and
the tests have been updated to reflect this. This matters for future
parser as it will now kick people if they pass in a stringified integer
as priority.
We already had a feature to manage and purge entries in preferences.d
but not the preferences file in /etc/apt. This commit adds that
capability.
Fixes#199
Move apt-get update exec to a seperate class to minimize the number of
apt-get updates invoked by configuration changes.
* remove apt_update exec resource in apt class.
* remove apt-get-${name} in defines.
* apt::source notify Exec['apt update'].
* Remove dependency to Exec['apt_update'].
* fix rspec-puppet tests.
