Possibly missing dependency on puppetlabs-apt

[ffrank]

On a fresh puppet install, the following manifest will not compile,

class {
    'nodejs':
        repo_url_suffix        => 'node_0.12',
        legacy_debian_symlinks => true;
}

Error is

Error: Evaluation Error: Error while evaluating a Function Call, Could not find class ::apt for node.example.net at /home/ff/.puppetlabs/etc/code/modules/nodejs/manifests/repo/nodesource/apt.pp:11:3 on node node.example.net

Puppet 4.2.3

it's weird that we hard-depend on

 {"name":"treydock/gpg_key","version_requirement":">=0.0.3 <1.0.0"}

but not on apt…

If it's just needed for one OS, the style guide defines that as a soft dependency that should be listed in the README (The soft dependencies should be made a lot clearer in the README though)

Oh right. It wouldn't make sense to pull that to yum machines. Closing.
