Hello,
I was trying to define some packages virtually since they could be in
multiple classes. Yet I get an error about it beging defined twice:
@package { "munin-node": ensure => installed }
realize(Package[munin-node])

Hello Luke, I could separate it into a distinct class. the munin-node wasn''t exactly a good example. Like java for instance is needed for various things; I could create a class and may eventually do that. But there''s quite a few examples and maybe a module is the only way. My question was should a virtual package work? :) On Nov 13, 8:34 am, Luke Kanies <l...@madstop.com> wrote:> On Nov 12, 2008, at 6:19 AM, gary wrote: > > > > > Hello, > > > I was trying to define some packages virtually since they could be in > > multiple classes.
