The latest erlang packages are Erlang 25. RabbitMQ 3.10 only has preview support for Erlang 25, so we are recommending the use of Erlang 24 rather than Erlang 25. This is achieved in the playbook by specifying to use erlang 24 as preference over anything else. But if you've upgraded the package in the meantime then you will have upgraded to erlang 25, and so the playbook when run again will go back to erlang 24. We are just updating the apt preferences file so that if you just ask to do a standard apt install, it will prefer 24 over 25. But the preferences file doesn't stop you explicitly upgrading to another version.
Prefered rather than "pinned" might be a better way of explaining it in the playbook.
Hi,
I added the roles from this repository to my playbook which installs some stuff upfront and updates the system. First run on a clean container runs fine but I can't reach idempotence because it fails the Install pinned erlang packages on Ubuntu step. I have a task which updates the system which also updates erlang in the second run. Running apt-mark showhold shows nothing so I guess the expected version of erlang packages isn't actually set to hold by the tasks in this repo. As I am new to StackStorm (just want to give it a try) I'm unsure what the Install pinned erlang packages on Ubuntu step actually tries to achieve. Can you shed some light?
apt upgrade wants to install:
