I am using version 0.0.1 version of puppet-augeas-ng, and when I run puppet on my remote agent I get the following error for the following definition:

I do plan to upgrade my agent to the same OS version as the master, which would bump my ruby version on the agent. But I suspect that the fault may be on how I've configured puppet as this is my first attempt at using your module (thank you btw for having a backward compatible module for augeas). If there is anything you can see that I might be doing wrong, or if you'd like me to provide more information to troubleshoot, I'd be more than happy to assist.

This module is unmaintained - it hasn't been updated for five years. If you want to develop it, please do so, but I'm not maintaining it. Please don't use it.

[kstanley-contec]

I almost forgot to mention that I am running the command sudo puppet agent --test --debug from my agent to test changes.

[kstanley-contec]

Thank you for the prompt response, and I'm sad to hear that. Since this project is not going anywhere, would you have any suggestions for comparable modules I could use in its place?

[domcleal]

Just use the built in augeas type and provider. If you have improvements to make to it, submit changes to Puppet core.
