Feature #1822: specifying version in package declaration should pin apt to that
version

Affected version: 0.24.6
Keywords:
the issue is that specifying a version in a package declaration -- eg
<pre>
package { "libxen3":
ensure => "3.2.0-0ubuntu10",
}
</pre>
installs the right version -- but doesn't pin apt to that version. the result
being that if you then manually run @apt-get upgrade@ you'll end up with the
newest version, regardless of what you specified. and that can be, er,
"awkward":https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xen-3.3/+bug/297077
it'd be great if specifying the version would magically add the relevant clause
to "apt's preferences":http://wiki.debian.org/AptPinning in order to do the
right thing...
