Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist * Package name : puppetdb-termini Version : 4.1.1 Upstream Author : PuppetLabs * URL or Web page : https://github.com/puppetlabs/puppetdb * License : Apache License version 2.0 Description : Enable a Puppet master to connect to PuppetDB
As discussed on https://bugs.debian.org/673515, packaging these bits this seems to be the only realistic way to enable a Puppet master to connect to PuppetDB, without requiring any 3rd-party packages on the Puppet master's side. One will still need to install PuppetDB somehow (e.g. using upstream's packages), but then it can live on a separate system, which allows to confine PuppetDB as much as possible, in order to avoid the need to trust 3rd-party (upstream) APT repositories on the puppetmaster. puppetdb-termini has no dependencies except puppet-agent. It just ships 16 .rb files, that live in the upstream PuppetDB Git repository, and are distributed in PuppetDB upstream tarballs. Also, see https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=673515#38 for a potential problem wrt. versioning of PuppetDB vs. puppetdb-termini. Cheers, -- intrigeri
