Puppet / PUP-9139 Package provider apt fails when installing from local file Issue Type: New Feature Assignee: Unassigned Created: 2018/09/14 3:54 AM Priority: Normal Reporter: Dirk Heinrichs Puppet Version: 4.10 Puppet Server Version: 2.8.1 OS Name/Version: Ubuntu 16.04 apt-get is able to install packages from locally stored .deb files (apt-get install /path/to/package), resolving dependencies as usual. However, the apt package provider doesn't seem to support this, which enforces the use of the dpkg provider. Unfortunately, this provider doesn't do depenedency resolution (since dpkg itself can't do that). Desired Behavior: Installing a from a local package file with the apt provider should just work. Actual Behavior: apt provider fails when trying to install from a local file.   Add Comment
