Support for debian absolute_path to be dynamic

Open pfo-netic opened this issue 1 year ago • 4 comments

For some reason absolute_path for Debian systems is statically set to 'present' in install.pp. This seems to be because dpkg can't accept $package_version if it is set to a version or 'auto'.

This makes you unable to use a puppet installer locally placed on the system to upgrade your puppet agent on Debian.

Why not set $_package_version = $package_version and then just make sure that it is either 'present' or 'latest' and otherwise fail?
