Interactive Debian Package Installation?

[Dennis Benzinger | hybris]

Hello!

For some machines I want to do a semi automated installation via puppet apply. Is it possible to tell Puppet to install Debian packages interactively in this case? So that for example the MySQL root password can be entered.


Cheers,

You won't be able to break into interactive mode during puppet apply,
but you have the option of supplying the answer file.
