Package: puppet Version: 3.2.1-1 Severity: normal After installing puppet, it is not started by sysvinit, but it is started by systemd. This behaviour is inconsistent. Puppet should either be autostarted on all init systems or on no init systems.
The setting START=no in /etc/default/puppet is ignored by the systemd service file. A dysfunctional setting should be removed and such a change should be documented in NEWS.Debian. Ideally puppet-agent should detect whether it is configured and exit successfully if no suitable configuration is found. That would entirely remove the need for a START=no shell configuration. On a personal note, it would be nice to have a package that provides puppet as a tool (especially puppet apply) without puppet agent service. I guess this is not gonna happen, but I found it worth mentioning. Helmut -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
