We’ve uploaded the 0.25.1 debs, but due to this work, it might take a little while before they appear.

Instructions for building yourself….

$ git clone git://git.debian.org/pkg-puppet/puppet.git
$ cd puppet
$ git-buildpackage --git-upstream-branch=origin/upstream


I’ve submitted a diff to update facter in MacPorts to 1.5.7, so it should be available soon.

Note that I’ve set the maintainer for both Puppet and Facter in MacPorts to ‘openmaintainer’. This means that I accept patches from anyone, and it’s really quite trivial to update either of them, as is the case with the vast majority of Portfiles.

The process goes something like:

$ sudo port selfupdate (to get the newest versions)
$ mkdir /tmp/facter
$ cd /tmp/facter
$ cp /opt/local/var/macports/sources/rsync.macports.org/release/ports/sysutils/facter/Portfile .
$ cp Portfile Portfile.orig
(edit the port file to change version from 1.5.6 to 1.5.7)
$ port -v checksum (this will print out the expected and obtained checksums. Use this info to update the ‘checksums’ component of the Portfile)
$ port -v checksum (this should return happily now)
$ sudo port -v install (verify that the port is installed correctly)
$ diff -u Portfile Portfile.orig > Portfile-facter.diff (submit an update ticket on the MacPorts Trac site with the diff attached)
