2012-12-05fix for $lsbdistcodename regression introduced by ↵Micah Anderson
ac166366d7baa45b74e09974289d9fb2dad38e67 What happened here was the $codename = $::lsbdistcodename was removed from init.pp and replaced with just $::lsbdistcodename whereever $codename was used. Then in the sources.list.erb and preferences files things were changed like this: <pre>+### Debian current: <%= codename = scope.lookupvar('::lsbdistcodename') %> ... -deb <%= debian_url %> <%= codename %> <%= repos %> ... +deb <%= debian_url=scope.lookupvar('apt::debian_url') %> <%= codename %> <%= repos=scope.lookupvar('apt::repos') %> </pre> This meant that the codename was always set to lsbdistcodename, and you because in newer puppet versions you cannot assign a value to a top-level facter variable, it is not possible to change this. Because we cannot change $lsbdistcodename, we have to fix this by allowing the user to pass a different, non-top-level scoped variable to the class as a parameter, which defaults to $::lsbdistcodename, so that upgrades can be triggered. This is documented in the README in an upgrade notice

... else the first block added by apt::preferences_snippet is in the same paragraph as the last block provided by the template.
2010-12-12Additionally use version number in Lenny default pinning.intrigeri
Lenny's APT does not support pinning like this: Pin: release o=Debian,n=<%= codename %> We therefore switched (in commit ef2ebdffd) to: Pin: release o=Debian,a=<%= release %> With such a pinning setup, when Squeeze is released, systems using this module with $apt_use_next_release set to true would immediately switch to prefer packages from Squeeze. If an automated upgrade process is setup, they would be automatically upgraded to Squeeze. This does not sound safe to me, so let's use the release version number as an additional selection criterion to prevent upgrades to Squeeze to happen behind our back: Pin: release o=Debian,a=<%= release %>,v=<%= release_version %>* Note that the trailing '*' is intentional and necessary to match stable point-releases.
2010-12-07switch to archive name for lenny default preferencesMicah Anderson
the templates/Debian/preferences_lenny.erb file checked in with e2f80db7b76171e5945127e2fd42fb35043990fb contains pinning based on codename, which is not supported in lenny (see #433624 - if you look at the version graph, you see, "Fixed in version 0.7.21", and lenny has 0.7.20.2+lenny1.)
