puppet-agent fails on Solaris 11 with the SRU update #57 #2423

Closed cthorn42 closed 8 months ago

cthorn42 commented 9 months ago

A new software repository update, SRU, for Solaris 11 has broken the puppet-agent. We've gotten a report confirming this for the 7.x branch, waiting for confirmation for 8.x/main branch. The error is around libffi which comes packaged with Solaris, we currently rely on the 7.x stream of puppet-agent the Solaris system library of libffi. On Solaris 11 with a SRU 57 or newer the failure will look something like this:

puppet agent --version
Error: Could not initialize global default settings: ld.so.1: ruby: libffi.so.5: open failed: No such file or directory - /opt/puppetlabs/puppet/lib/ruby/gems/2.7.0/gems/ffi-1.15.5/lib/ffi_c.so

We need to fix this in the puppet-runtime, this will require a new puppet-agent release in order to fix.
