→‎Why use variables

== Why use variables ==

* To easily change multiple occurrences of a value in the install, upgrade, downgrade and remove commands

* To use one version variable for package revision, checks and installer executable name

* To apply different versions of a package based on host groups and profiles

=== Applying different versions ===

Below find the host definition for two computers, where the host definition for TestPC is overwriting some variables.
