Description

Using Centos 6.4:
foreman-1.1stable-3.el6.noarch
foreman-proxy-1.1stable-1.el6.noarch
foreman-release-1.1stable-3.el6.noarch
foreman-installer-1.1.1-1.noarch
foreman-sqlite-1.1stable-3.el6.noarch

and an answers file of:
---
puppet: false
foreman_proxy:
dhcp: true
puppetca: false
puppetrun: false
puppetmaster: false
foreman: true

I see the installer try to install puppet-server, (only once, though.)
The puppet-server dependency doesn't seem to persist into the 2nd run, manually, but the following does:

Fail to start httpd, due to the presence of :
/etc/httpd/conf.d/puppet.conf

(it has the SSL keys in that conf, so that http fails.)

Greg's figured this out and pushed a fix, we'll update the 1.1 installer too as it's severe. Thanks for the report!

It was an ordering issue where if you selected "yes" to run Puppet immediately in the installer, it would run Puppet and then write out the answers file, so it would do the Puppet run using the default options. If you selected "no", it would just write out the file and then give you the command to run Puppet.
