Question: Will support be added for Puppet 8 and RHEL8?

Open maureen-lawless opened this issue 2 years ago • 3 comments

Hi,

I'd like to know if support will be added in the future for:

  1. Puppet 8
  2. RedHat 8

If yes, what would the expected timeline be?

Thanks, Maureen

Looks like #938 (not yet released) added puppet 8 support. As far as RHEL, if you don’t know what changes to make, I can take a pass at adding that support, depending on how much work is involved - if tests pass without additional code changes, shouldn’t be that hard

It may not work until someone implements the stuff started in #926 -- looks like using the default vendor repos, no rabbitmq-server package is available.

That said, my guess is that it will work, at least with repos_ensure set to true -- you just may have to ignore the metadata warnings.

So, Puppet 8 is now properly supported (it was supported in metadata before, but fixed properly in #985

I'm not sure about RHEL 8 / CentOS 8. Looks like RHEL 8 is EOL at the end of the month, and CentOS 8 already was EOL in 2021 or something, but if it's trivial, we can see if official support can be added for a release or two and then dropped.

Closing in favor of #816
