Puppet users - May 2012 - Interactive Debian Package Installation?

Hello! 

For some machines I want to do a semi automated installation via puppet 
apply. Is it possible to tell Puppet to install Debian packages 
interactively in this case? So that for example the MySQL root password can 
be entered. 


Cheers,

You won''t be able to break into interactive mode during puppet apply,
but you have the option of supplying the answer file.
