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, Franco...

Shouldn''t pkg_add be using the -r option for package management? I worked around by forcing the client to use ports instead, but it stinks.

Hi, I am running an environment with 15 FreeBSD servers on which I want to maintain ports, rc.conf settings, and assorted configuration in /usr/local/etc/. Looked around the existing Puppet docs, I got a puppetmaster and a test client to work and install a package as specified in the site manifest. This is very basic but awesome! I want to create a puppet FreeBSD HowTo that addresses a

Hi all, I''m running Puppet on FreeBSD and recently I started building my own packages. I would like to set the PKGROOT variable on all hosts so that packages are fetched from my server instead of freebsd.org. Is it possible to set this with puppet? I''ve read the suggestion on Trac [1], and it solves the problem when puppet is run with an rc script, but it won''t work
