Puppet users - Aug 2012 - FreeBSD $PACKAGESITE from -STABLE to -RELEASE

Hi all,

I''m using FreeBSD-9.0-RELEASE. 
When I install a package via puppet, it seems to use the -STABLE branches 
instead of -RELEASE. I can use pkg_add -r on the command-line, which will 
use the -RELEASE branch and break the dependencies.

One workaround is to change the $PACKAGESITE variable to 
"ftp://ftp.ch.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/amd64/packages-9-stable/Latest/"
but it''s not something I''m happy with as it''s not
something recommended for
a production system.

Do anyone know how to change this behavior ?

Thanks in advance,

Francois

I use some package defaults:

case $::operatingsystem {
  freebsd, solaris: {
    Package {
      provider => $operatingsystem ? {
        ''freebsd'' => ''freebsd'',
        ''solaris'' => ''pkgutil'',
      },
      source => $operatingsystem ? {
        ''freebsd'' =>
''http://repos.me/pub/FreeBSD/ports/amd64/packages-9.0-release/'',
        ''solaris'' =>
''http://repos.me/opencsw/testing'',
      }
    }
  }
}

The case statement is so that I only set these defaults for these host types.
