Hi all.. If you have a sytem running both up2date and yum (to keep a current redhat repo) and want to install packages using either/or - is there a way to specify which app to use for package control? I would like to be able to control on a per package basis if possible. Or should I just bite the bullet and configure yum to handle the redhat updating rather than up2date? thanks ~J~ --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.

However you can define per package definition the provider puppet should use: package{''i-am-a-yum-package'': ensure => present, provider => yum, } package{''i-am-a-up2date-package'': ensure => present, provider => up2date, } cheers pete --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.

It''s been a while, but isn''t up2date transparent to yum now via the up2date yum plugin shipped with RHEL?
