For a minute there, due to the quoting, I thought I had written that and I was really stumped what I meant. Then I went and read the bug from the top and I see that it wasn't me who wrote that, but Ansgar who did. I just tried a few different things, and I cannot find a way to do this, except for the method that you described (remove both, then explicitly purging the puppet package). I'm not sure what the point of doing that is though. Ansgar, could you describe what functionality you are trying to achieve? micah
