### Major Known Issues
- using a package snapshot tag (`yum_client::repo_tag` in hiera) different than `prod` will fail horribly
### Major Missing Features
- default user home is local unless configured to be on AFS [PSILINUX-97](https://jira.psi.ch/browse/PSILINUX-97)
- security patches are automatically installed [PSILINUX-98](https://jira.psi.ch/browse/PSILINUX-98)
- minimal default installation, aka gem, git and postfix is not installed by default [PSILINUX-100](https://jira.psi.ch/browse/PSILINUX-100)
### Caveats
#### Workstation Installation Takes Long and Seams to Hang
On the very first puppet run the command to install the GUI packages takes up to 10 minutes and it looks like it
is hanging. Usually it is after the installation of `/etc/sssd/sssd.conf`. Just give it a bit time.
#### Installing a Machine with YFS and an Old Package Snapshot Tag
After the `pli-firstboot` script it stopps due to errors (installed yfs kernel module version does not fit running kernel). Still it manages to install everything fine.
So please restart the machine (so it loads the right kernel) and run `puppet agent` again to finally start and enable the `yfs-service`.
