The used facterdb version has no factsets for Ubuntu 24.04. That means that no unit tests will test Ubuntu 24.04. I highly recommend to update to a newer FacterDB version first.

Any news here? We also need adoptions for 24.04 auth_kerb apt package name.

A new facterdb version with 24.04 facts was released so that should be resolved now

That isn't mentioned in this PR. Could you explain what actually changed and what code changes are expected?

Can I contribute via this fork here or would I have to create a new one?

With Ubuntu 24.04 the package libapache2-mod-auth-kerb is no longer present. Thus, we have to move to gssapi module. Maybe we could adopt params.pp?

it's not that easy. Perforce pins to an ancient FacterDB version in this module: https://github.com/puppetlabs/puppetlabs-apache/blob/main/Gemfile#L25.

This is based on a template from https://github.com/puppetlabs/pdk-templates/blob/main/config_defaults.yml.

And that got recently updated to allow FacterDB 3.X: puppetlabs/pdk-templates@d37befc.

I do not know what the desired workflow is to roll out those changes to modules.

What is needed to get Ubuntu 24.04 support going for this module?

I really don't care which one, the all have the important bits, but the one on top seems to be most complete.

#2585
#2618
#2575
#2577

Ubuntu 24.04 Support should really be available (now that 26.04 is around the corner).
Very much appreciated.
