Description

I have run a "rudder agent run" to test some changes, on my slowly nodes I can observe the rudder(cfengine) steps easily and I'm surprised to see "/usr/bin/aptitude --assume-yes --simulate --verbose full-upgrade" in begin of run.

2 observations:
- why simulate a full-upgrade at each run, it's very time consumption
- is-it possible to use apt-get and not aptitude ? On my system aptitude don't work (my /var/lib/aptitude/ is daily purged)

ncharles talk about fetching the list of patches from the cfengine stdlib

Is it possible to remove this ?
