I need to upgrade a package, but it''s later versions are packaged
differently, can I do something like
package { "zabbix-agent.1.8.15":
ensure => absent
}
some repo ensured present...
package {"zabbix-agent, zabbix-sender, zabbix-get":
ensure => latest
}
The problem is that a prior repo had all 3 replacement components in the
same rpm, so I can''t just upgrade from 1.8 era to 2.x. I would add
ordering to this also.
Thanks

Hi LenR,
You do not required to uninstalled the package if you want to upgrade
it.
Puppet package resource automatically upgrade/install the* latest version
package* present in the yum repos, if you specify ensure =>
''latest''.
You can also specify the package version along with name and make ensure =>
present.
Thanks and Regards,

If it doesn;t work then you''ll need to provide some information about what goes wrong for us to give you any useful advice.

That is correct, normally... this one won''t upgrade via yum due to dependencies, puppet isn''t the problem, but I think it''s going to be the solution :-) On Wed, Sep 25, 2013 at 2:06 AM, Rahul Khengare <rahulk1306@gmail.com>wrote:> Hi LenR, > You do not required to uninstalled the package if you want to upgrade > it. > Puppet package resource automatically upgrade/install the* latest version > package* present in the yum repos, if you specify ensure => ''latest''. > You can also specify the package version along with name and make ensure > => present. > > Thanks and Regards, > Rahul Khengare, > NTT DATA OSS Center, Pune, India. > > > On Wednesday, September 25, 2013 9:00:54 AM UTC+5:30, LenR wrote: >> >> I need to upgrade a package, but it''s later versions are packaged >> differently, can I do something like >> >> package { "zabbix-agent.1.8.15": >> ensure => absent >> } >> >> some repo ensured present... >> >> package {"zabbix-agent, zabbix-sender, zabbix-get": >> ensure => latest >> } >> >> The problem is that a prior repo had all 3 replacement components in the >> same rpm, so I can''t just upgrade from 1.8 era to 2.x.
