Where is source rpm for puppet6 open source rpm

Where is source rpm for puppet6 open source rpms? I could not find them ..

[Morgan Rhodes]

Hi,

We no longer provide source RPMs for puppet6 packages due to lack of support from the packaging tools we use.

Thank you! Unfortunately that won't work for me. The issue I have is
due to /opt is some NFS read-only mounts. I am wondering about how to
get a new RPM created for puppet-agent6, so that it could be installed
on some folder like /opt2 instead. Right now I could not install this
rpm. The other workaround is to copy whole puppet folder to that NFS
mount. Just thinking that modifying /opt if we have src rpm would be
much easier..

Ah, you need the whole thing to be relocatable!

Yeah, that's much more difficult, even with a SRPM to be honest depending on how the components are built.

I think that it's configurable in Vanagon so you can probably build the container image, hop into it and dig around to see where you might have to modify the /opt path.

Others on the mailing list might know more about specifics on that.

Could you cheat and create /opt2/puppetlabs and a symlink
from /opt/puppetlabs -> /opt2/puppetlabs before installation?

Otherwise, you can likely unpack the rpm, and futz with it,
but I could imagine that /opt/puppetlabs is buried in a
binary or two and thus awkward to change.

Hope that helps - cheers

You can install the RPM on /opt folder and re-use the same installation on multiple systems.
Just be sure to configure puppet agent to not store node specific information in /opt.

Check config options by running "sudo puppet config print —all” after Puppet agent installation

Hth,
Martin
