[Pkg-puppet-devel] Bug#1108801: puppet-module-asciiduck-sssd: autopkgtest regression: seems to not get sssd installed

[Mathias Gibbens]

  It seems that puppet-module-asciiduck-sssd is totally broken; I'm not
super familiar with puppet, so I didn't retitle the bug report.

  Trying to run the first failing autopkgtest command by hand in a
clean trixie containers returns an error:

> root at meet-phoenix:~# puppet apply --detailed-exitcodes --execute "include sssd"
> Error: Evaluation Error: Unknown variable: '::osfamily'. (file: /usr/share/puppet/modules/sssd/manifests/params.pp, line: 8, column: 8) on node meet-phoenix.incus

  Setting "include_legacy_facts=true" in /etc/puppet/puppet.conf gets a
step further, but still fails:

> root at meet-phoenix:~# puppet apply --detailed-exitcodes --execute "include sssd"
> Error: Evaluation Error: Unknown function: 'validate_bool'. (file: /usr/share/puppet/modules/sssd/manifests/init.pp, line: 53, column: 3) on node meet-phoenix.incus

  There's zero reverse depends on this package, and the last
significant changes were back in 2016. The amd64 autopkgtests began
failing some time after June 25, 2019 and haven't passed since.
