Hi,

Just tried updating an F18 machine and got this:

$ sudo yum update
Loaded plugins: changelog
Resolving Dependencies
--> Running transaction check
[...]
---> Package puppet.noarch 0:2.7.18-1.fc18 will be updated
---> Package puppet.noarch 0:3.1.1-1.fc18 will be an update
--> Processing Dependency: hiera >= 1.0.0 for package:
puppet-3.1.1-1.fc18.noarch
--> Finished Dependency Resolution
Error: Package: puppet-3.1.1-1.fc18.noarch (updates)
           Requires: hiera >= 1.0.0
 You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
 You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest

There doesn't seem to be a hiera package for F18 at all:

$ sudo yum install hiera
Loaded plugins: changelog
No package hiera available.
Error: Nothing to do

It looks like the initial version of it is still in testing:

Regards,

Rich
