Hello all,
This should not come has a great surprise for some, but I realized recently that i should probably reach a larger audience.
We're changing the way that we handle puppet module packages in Newton (and future releases).
The previous way of handling Puppet modules for RDO was to bundle them all together into a single "OpenStack-Puppet-Modules" package. This involved a lot of thankless manual work to merge all the modules into a single repository [1]. This will still be the case for Kilo, Liberty, and Mitaka releases.
However, for upcoming releases such as Newton, we will be splitting out the OpenStack Puppet Modules into individual packages (example: puppet-nova [2]) and accompanying -distgit repository [3]. There will still be a 'openstack-puppet-modules' metapackage [4] that will install all the dependent modules for folks that need it. It is entirely possible to select only the modules that you need for your particular installation though.
