Ruby 1.8.1 was only supported on a best-effort basis for agent use only,
mostly for EL-4 support. With EL-4 going EOL in a few weeks, we can
forget about 1.8.1
After discussion in bugzilla, it's clear that a more minimal backport of
changes to resolve issues with augeas >= 0.10 is the better approach.
(That and I missed the patch which Dominic had helpfully attached to the
bug when he initially filed it.)
When augeas reached 0.10.0, various version tests failed. This is fixed
in the 2.7.x branch of puppet, but a few other changes were also made
since then, making a very minimal cherry-pick fix difficult. The other
changes are reasonably small and are also worth of backporting to our
2.6.x packages.
The patches are from 2.6.7rc1.
(#4922) Don't truncate remotely-sourced files on 404
(#5073) Download plugins even if you're filtering on tags
(#5428) More fully "stub" Puppet::Resource::Reference for use with
storedconfigs
Some of the selinux types/providers call binaries from libselinux-utils
directly. Ideally, these would be converted to use the ruby bindings,
but it is not clear if that is feasible at this time.
Upstream is exploring the possibility of moving to a more liberal
license like the Apache Software License and the advice of their legal
team was that it would be easier to move from GPLv2 than GPLv2 or later.
- Adjust selinux conditional for EL-6
- Apply rundir-perms patch from tarball rather than including it separately
- Update URL's to reflect the new puppetlabs.com domain
