Suddenly, puppet agent won't run anymore on the master. I get the following error:

Info: Caching catalog for puppet.cluster.ns.nl

Info: Applying configuration version '1383770776'

Error: Execution of '/usr/bin/apt-get -q -y -o DPkg::Options::=--force-confold install postgresql-client-unknown' returned 100: Reading package lists...

I really have no clue what the cause is and how to fix it. Anyone???

I tried apt-get update, didn't help.

Okay, I found the cause. For security purposes, I editted /etc/issue. As a result, 'facter operatingsystemrelease' did not work correctly anymore. The Postgress module couldn't determine correctly the proper version anymore.
