Hi @thias anyupdate on the transfer? We want to deprecate the example42-libvirt module and we are looking for a replacement.

anarcat commented 2 years ago

i'm looking at https://github.com/petems/puppet-libvirt/network and even if we do move this to voxpupuli, there is a lot of housekeeping work to be done, for example just to have this module work on ubuntu and debian.

there's many forks out there that are duplicating efforts, it's really too bad. also, i wonder if it might not be better for voxpupuli to adopt another module than this one, one that would be in better shape. for example, hinted by @tuxmea's last comment here, i looked at example42-libvirt and they did deprecate the module and they do not recommend this one. instead, they point users at cirrax-libvirt which has seen a release last april, has more features and seems way more active.

it doesn't have a million downloads, but it's next to thias-libvirt when sorted by popularity, which is encouraging as well.

so, in that sense, i think the next step for this module would be deprecation, the same way @tuxmea deprecated the example42 module, and point at cirrax.

(and yes, i started looking at all the forks here and trying to merge, but it's just a mess. a fool's errand. but for someone interested, this is how you start:
