[Pkg-puppet-devel] Bug#1050338: puppetserver: missing Recommends on puppet-module-puppetlabs-mailalias-core

[Cyril Brulebois]

Package: puppetserver
Version: 7.9.5-2
Severity: important

Hi,

One of the problems that showed up while upgrading my puppet
{master,server} from bullseye to bookworm was losing support for the
mailalias resource. Some basic research led to discovering it's been
split away from the core and moved to a module. One `puppet module
install` call later, that problem went away.

Evgeni Golov kindly pointed out that we have a package for that module,
and given the list of Recommends in puppetserver, it looks like it
could and should have been there, so possibly just an oversight and not
a deliberate decision?


Cheers,
