* ticket/master/X_debian_support:
Bump stdlib module dependency to 0.1.6
Update README for apt and rpm based platforms.
Update the module example test manifest
Add Debian based distro support.
This change separates the package resource into an implementation
class following the composite class pattern.
In addition, the _real variables have been removed to prevent
confusion.
The validation functions have been updated to support a more
clear regular expression.
The debian package names are different, so conditional logic
is required to set a debian based distro specific variable
for the Java distribution name.
While the puppet resources work, there is currently an issue
on Lucid where the package REQUIRES interactive installation
to accept the license agreement. This will need to be fixed
for fully automated deployment on apt based systems.
The top level java module was declaring classes depending on what Java
distribution is required. Similar to the issues encountered with
service and configuration class ordering, the composed classes did not
have an established relationship with other things that require the
module.
This change brings all resources into a single top level java class and
eliminates class composition within the module entirely.
The stages feature of stdlib is turning out to be more trouble than it's
worth. Integrating the changes from Cody and Gary results in the entire
mcollective class being in the main stage. We've already found is
preferable to have stages after main rather than before to avoid
dependency cycles. This only works if all modules use stages. The
first module to not use stages will create a cycle if it requires and
modules who do use stages and the stages come after main.
Dan raised the comment in the previous patch set that it doesn't make
sense to provide two options and four states when there are really only
two possibilities; install the jre or the jdk.
This change removes the jdk and jre class parameters and replaces them
with a single distribution parameters.
Anonymous arrays and comparing booleans does not work in 2.6.8 like they
do in master. In 2.6.8 we cannot compare a true / false variable to a
string inside of Ruby without forcing the function argument to be a
string.
