So I ran through a server setup on ec2, and have a text file of all the commands I used to get the server to where I wanted it.

I should remember to use standard English. The biggest improvement to the code I just demonstrated is: Do something else. I showed that code so I could answer your question directly, and because I think it demonstrates some useful techniques. However, there is a better way to solve the problem. If you make a debian package, then you only need to install the package. class my_ruby { package { "my_ruby": ensure => installed, } } All the dependencies and environment setup would be done by the package''s install scripts. Also, you would not leave the download directory and all the other useless files on the server. If you wanted to remove or upgrade the package all the details would be handled by the package system. It takes time to learn to make packages, so you can use the code I showed you as a temporary solution. But, for the future, you should learn to make packages. -- vagn -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.

I do, I was confused as to whether that was puppet talk or debian/ubuntu related.

Is suppose I should mention that, if you have an idempotent script like
the one mentioned,
you can use it directly. Again, not tested, so may bugs.

file { "/root/ruby_from_src.sh":
content =>
template("ruby_from_src/ruby_from_src.sh"),
before => Exec[ "/root/ruby_from_src.sh" ],

Is it possible to install packages to specific directories for most providers? (for example, passing --instdir to dpkg -i).
