On my Solaris machines at $WORK I use iMil’s pkgin to install additional software. But until today, I add to do it by hand, on every machine… Not really what I like to do after a little more than a year using puppet. So I wrote a provider to manage packages with pkgin. It was very informative on puppet internals and I learned more about my favorite config management system.
Enough talking, here is the file : pkgin.rb
Example of use in a manifest :
class foo { package { "bla": ensure => installed, provider => pkgin } }

It would be great to get all your mods in a single repository that we could monitor. Maybe github?
