Puppet users - Nov 2009 - Downloaded plugin does not get loaded after puppetd gets restarted.

Hi

When I run puppetd for the first time, it syncs ownpkg.rb from
puppetmasterd just fine, and then it autoloads it.

notice: /File[/var/puppet/lib/puppet/provider/ownpkg.rb]/content:
content changed ''{md5}efd758a6094c813f8480423b01d823ac'' to
''{md5}
b0f1f52803738bace6724ef5bfe5318a''
Finishing transaction -971820348 with 1 changes
Loading downloaded plugin /var/puppet/lib/puppet/provider/ownpkg.rb

Then I start puppetd again and because the file''s hash did not change
it''s not going to be retransmitted, and therefore it''s not
going to be
autoloaded.
So later on when I try to intall a package with provider => ownpkg,
it''s going to fail:

err: Could not run Puppet configuration client: Invalid package
provider ''ownkpg'' at /etc/puppet/manifests/classes/squid.pp:7

Any ideas how can i make it load it all the time?

Thanks

I thought I already answered this somewhere else, but maybe not.

Basically, you have the wrong path for your provider - use provider/ 
package/ownpkg.rb, so Puppet will autoload it.
