Bug#940587: cloud.debian.org: additional Vagrant boxes with puppet/ansible pre-installed?
Package: cloud.debian.org
Severity: wishlist
Hi there,
I've been holding back on using the debian/* boxes with vagrant mostly since
there's no puppet pre-installed in the boxes.
I know that, as documented in the wiki, I can install puppet with a shell
provisioner, but doing that on every boot makes things very much slower.
I could also start from the vanilla box, install puppet and then repackage
into a new box locally, but the point of using a public box is so that other
contributers can start with exactly the same environment.
I'm also aware that pre-installing those would make the images much bigger,
and I can see the point of having a very tiny completely vanilla debian image.
I was wondering if folks maintaining the vagrant boxes would be willing to
publish additional images that would have puppet/ansible pre-installed with
the debian packages from each release's package repository?
cheers!
