puppetlabs.repo for aws deployment

pbwilmot opened this issue · 1 comments

This file is unnecessary all you need is the call to

sudo rpm -ivh https://yum.puppetlabs.com/el/6/products/i386/puppetlabs-release-6-7.noarch.rpm

then a lot of the work in aws/aws-prepare-image.sh can be removed.

The custom puppetlabs.repo is required -- at least for older AMI's -- to ensure that the PuppetLabs yum repo has a higher priority than the Amazon yum repos. Otherwise yum may install an outdated version of Puppet on Amazon Linux.
