Description

After installing devtools and puppetmodules, I ran gradlew toolchain on newly installed machine and got the following error:

$ ./gradlew toolchain

(snip)

Error: Syntax error at 'Hash'; expected ')' at /etc/puppet/modules/apt/manifests/init.pp:6 on node ubuntu
Error: Syntax error at 'Hash'; expected ')' at /etc/puppet/modules/apt/manifests/init.pp:6 on node ubuntu
:toolchain FAILED

This is solved by adding --parser future option to puppet apply command, but another error also occurred:

Error: Evaluation Error: Error while evaluating a Function Call, Must pass update_defaults to Class[Apt] at /home/sekikn/bigtop/bigtop_toolchain/manifests/jdk.pp:29:7 on node ubuntu
Error: Evaluation Error: Error while evaluating a Function Call, Must pass update_defaults to Class[Apt] at /home/sekikn/bigtop/bigtop_toolchain/manifests/jdk.pp:29:7 on node ubuntu

It seems to be caused by puppetlabs-apt 3.0.0 and 4.0.0, which are recently released. Actually, their changelog says as follows:

If you're still running Puppet 3, remain on the latest puppetlabs-apt 2.x release for now, and see the documentation to upgrade to Puppet 4.
