The best way to use this tool is to hook apt's use of dpkg to run it before doing any package installs.

In your apt.conf, put this:

DPkg::Pre-Install-Pkgs {"xargs -rL1 bash /path/to/stripdeb.sh 2>&1 | logger -t stripdeb"}

Then, a demo:

% sudo apt-get install mysql-server-5.1

The problem

There's enough trouble with puppet's ssl model (mandatory client certs) that people go and do odd things to get around it. The primary problem is that for lab/preproduction environments, if you reinstall machines frequently, you lose access to the private key that generated the original cert but (absent some puppet cert --clean [node] operation) the cert still exists, leading to the dreaded Retrieved certificate doesn't match private key error.

A solution

Generate a single client certificate which all your nodes use, and have the master determine node names from facter rather than the SSL DN. This way you can re-install nodes with impunity and as long as your bootstrap plops down the correct config and the cert+key, you don't have any more SSL issues.

The caveats

If you have autosign turned on, this change represents a shift in security tradeoffs: you can turn off autosign and therefore more tightly control which clients can talk to your server because they need to have your clie

Locate the section for your github remote in the .git/config file. It looks like this:

[remote "origin"]
	fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*
	url = [email protected]:joyent/node.git

Now add the line fetch = +refs/pull/*/head:refs/remotes/origin/pr/* to this section. Obviously, change the github url to match your project's URL. It ends up looking like this:

Overview

The intention is to get a clean build of MRI 1.8.7 and 1.9.3.

MRI 1.8.7 doesn't play nicely with LLVM based GCC compilers. In Mountain Lion, the only way to get a non-LLVM gcc is to build one yourself. The command line tools package in Xcode 4.4 does not contain a non-llvm based GCC.

Checklist

Upgrade to Mountain Lion
Remove all previous copies of Xcode
