Issue #1260 has been updated by luke. Status changed from New to Rejected
I can't see how this is necessary. The rpm provider is smart enough to see that the package is already installed, so it should never try to reinstall the package on subsequent runs just because it's getting evaluated. The problem you're having is that the name you've specified for the package probably does not match the actual name in the rpm. Make sure the name you've specified matches the output from 'rpm -qa'. ---------------------------------------- Feature #1260: Package should support subscribe / getting notified http://reductivelabs.com/redmine/issues/show/1260 Author: thegcat Status: Rejected Priority: Normal Assigned to: luke Category: package Target version: Complexity: Unknown Patch: None Stage: Needs design decision h1. Subscribe support for the Package type It would be nice if Package would support subcsribe/notify, i.e. being run only when the counterpart gets updated. Concrete case: I have locally-stored rpms I get from a file {} in puppet, and package { provider => rpm, source => "/some/path/package.rpm" }, and the package gets evaluated each time. I then get an error from puppetd, because rpm tells it it couldn't install the package as it is already there. ---------------------------------------- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
