Apt (Advanced Package Tool) is a package manager available on Debian, Ubuntu, and several other operating systems. The apt module provides a series of classes, defines, types, and facts to help you automate Apt package management.
-**Note**: For this module to be able to correctly auto detect which version of Debian/Ubuntu or derivative you're running you need to make sure the 'lsb-release' package is installed. We highly recommend making this part of your provisioning layer if you run many Debian or derivative systems or ensuring that you have at least Facter 2.2.0 installed which will pull in this dependency for you.

## Setup
### What apt affects
+* Your system's `preferences.list` file and `preferences.list.d` directory
* Your system's `sources.list` file and `sources.list.d` directory
* System repositories
* Authentication keys
-**Note:** Setting the apt module's `purge_sources_list` and `purge_sources_list_d` parameters to 'true' will destroy any existing content that you haven't declared through Puppet. The default for these parameters is 'false'.
+**Note:** This module offers `purge` parameters which will cause the module to destroy any configuration on the node's `sources.list(.d)` and `preferences.list(.d)` that you haven't declared through Puppet. The default for these parameters is 'false'.
### Beginning with apt

-You can make Apt load your key before others by adjusting the `priority` parameter (the default priority is 50).

#### Type: `apt_key`
This module is tested and officially supported on Debian 6 and 7 and Ubuntu 10.04, 12.04, and 14.04. Testing on other platforms has been light and cannot be guaranteed.
+### Adding new sources or PPAs
+
+If you are adding a new source or PPA and trying to install packages from the new source or PPA on the same puppet run, in addition to depending on the `Apt::Source` or the `Apt::Ppa`, your `package` resource should depend on `Class['apt::update']`. You can also add [collectors](https://docs.puppetlabs.com/puppet/latest/reference/lang_collectors.html) to ensure all packages happen after `apt::update`, but this can lead to dependency cycles and has implications for [virtual resources](https://docs.puppetlabs.com/puppet/latest/reference/lang_collectors.html#behavior)

## Development
Puppet Labs modules on the Puppet Forge are open projects, and community contributions are essential for keeping them great. We can't access the huge number of platforms and myriad hardware, software, and deployment configurations that Puppet is intended to serve. We want to keep it as easy as possible to contribute changes so that our modules work in your environment. There are a few guidelines that we need contributors to follow so that we can have a chance of keeping on top of things.
