Hi,

Due to repository priorities, ruby-sinatra is not installed from the foreman repos thus the install of foreman-proxy aborts because of unsatisfied dependencies. It is not installed from the foreman repos because of insufficient repository priority:

# echo include foreman_installer | puppet apply --modulepath /usr/share/foreman-installer -v
...
