They now create /var/log/puppetlabs/XXX directories, as well as I saw, also properly puppetdb vardir to the right position. While there exchanged a number of hardcoded /etc /var /usr/local with respective variables. Updated dependencies a bit for puppetdb-termini. The main puppetdb is not really depending on it, but puppetserver is, so made that one depending on the termini. > - puppetserver doesn't start on my server log file attached, it seems there > is a dependency missing (no such file to load...). To let the puppetserver startup properly, you have to take the initial bootstrapping steps as described in the README. On other OS, puppetserver comes bundled with puppet, and a bundled Ruby etc. That's not possible for us, so have to install puppet "within" puppetserver, so it's jruby interpreter can find and use it. > New package doesn't upgrade from puppet5, a pkg_path is missing I think. I'm lousy whith pkg_path thingies, and don't have a box where to properly test it out. those that still have Puppet5 are old, and these that switched already, don't have puppet5 anymore. Esp. with the clean-up to the first two points, and taking puppetserver README into account, I believe things should now work smoothly. They installed fine for me, as well as starting up. More feedback welcome, other than that, OKs as well. If ther's oddities left, they can be fixed in-tree afterward. cheers, Sebastian
